Additional Information
The Cooper T39 "Bob Tail" was produced to provide opposition to Lotus in the 1100cc-1500cc sports car class. The tubular chassis car was clothed in close fitting aluminium bodywork, suspended on transverse leaf springs and powered by mid mounted 1460cc Coventry Climax 100hp engines. Jack Brabham constructed his own Bob Tail (T40) at the Cooper works, fitting a larger Bristol engine he entered the 1955 British GP at Aintree, only finishing the car on the morning of the race. After being lapped by the race leading Mercedes and Maserati's he retired after 31 laps. The car ran a more successful club season and was shipped out to Australia when Jack returned home at the end of the year.
