  • 68 the Last Front-Engined Grand Prix
    Note 68 The last front-engined Grand Prix car The last front-engined Grand Prix car was the Ferguson P99 fitted with a 1.5L Coventry Climax FPF engine. It was also Four-Wheel-Drive (4WD). The 1st race for this car was actually in one of the three 3 Litre Inter-Continental Series held in 1961 in the UK only, at Silverstone, fitted with a 2.5L Climax FPF. It failed to finish. With the 1.5L Climax FPF Mk II engine installed it then competed in the 1961 British GP at Aintree driven by Fairman but, after having been push-started contrary to the rules when taken over by Moss, it was disqualified. Later in 1961 Moss won the non-Championship F1 Oulton Gold cup race in wet conditions. This remains the only F1 race won by 4WD because several 4WD cars built in 1969 were unsuccessful and after 1982 the system was banned by FISA. An interesting detail is that Ferguson tested the engine before and after the successful Oulton race, which was over 166 miles, at 152 BHP and 147 BHP respectively, both at 7,500 RPM. The loss was therefore only 3.3% (1049). Had the race been dry the car might not have been so competitive and the engine would no doubt have been given a harder time. In 1963 in Antipodean races with the 2.5L Climax re-installed, it achieved a 2nd (Graham Hill) and two 3rds (Innes Ireland). A mountain climb in Switzerland (Ollon-Villars) was also entered driven by Jo Bonnier (result unknown).

Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.

  • 1959 Cooper T51 F2-23-59 Coventry Climax FPF 2.5
    1959 Cooper T51 F2-23-59 Coventry Climax FPF 2.5 F2-23-59 started life in 1959 as a works car for the Cooper Grand Prix team when they won the World Constructors Championship and lead driver Jack Brabham became the World Drivers Champion. F2-23-59 was fitted with a 4 cylinder Coventry-Climax FPF and raced by Bruce McLaren throughout the year finishing 3rd in the British GP at Silverstone and then taking his maiden Grand Prix victory in the US Grand Prix at Sebring. Originally fitted with a 2.2 litre Coventry Climax FPF engine, even in period 2.5 litre units were at a premium, McLaren was finally issued with a full-house 2.5 litre FPF for the French GP and in the next Grand Prix, the British at Aintree, used it to good effect to finish 3rd and set equal fastest lap with Stirling Moss. McLaren had originally had a taste of 2.5 litre FPF power in practice at Monaco where he described the difference between the 2.2 and the 2.5 as “Startling”. And then in a fitting end to the 1959 GP season in the final race, the US Grand Prix at Sebring, Bruce McLaren won his first GP in F2-26-59’s last works outing. For 1960 F2-23-59 was sold to Fred Tuck & Horace Gould. Tuck privately entered the car in numerous Grand Prix with various drivers taking the wheel including Roy Salvadori and Lucien Bianchi who scored an excellent privateer’s result of 6th at Monaco.

  • Sir Stirling Moss 1959 Cooper T49 Monaco
    ! The Ex - Sir Stirling Moss, Bib Stillwell - ‘Coil Sprung’ 1959 Cooper T49 ‘Monaco’ Chassis Number: 20 • Commissioned new by Sir Stirling Moss in 1959 where he qualified the car on the front row of the grid for the 1959 British Grand Prix Sports Car Race at Aintree and went on to win at Karlskoga in Sweden and the Roskilde Ring in Denmark. • Recipient of a decorated racing history with Bib Stillwell in Australia. • Surely the ultimate ’50s Sports Racing Car with its coil sprung rear suspension and the desirable 5-speed gearbox, making it arguably more competitive than the standard Monaco. • Beautifully restored back to its 1959 specification by Simon Hadfield Motorsport and driven to a continuous string of victories, including the BRDC ‘50s Sportscar Championship and British Grand Prix support race, by then owner Frank Sytner. • Maintained with no expense spared by Pearsons Engineering throughout its current ownership and accompanied by an extensive history file, including period photographs from both Moss’ and Stilwell’s ownership, as well as more contemporary historic racing and a comprehensive collection of invoices for work both during Frank Sytner’s ownership and the current owners time. • With new FIA HTPs in the coil sprung, 5 speed format, this is your chance to get onto any of the ‘50s Sportscar grids whether it the Stirling Moss Trophy or prestigious Goodwood Revival. T. + 44 (0)1285 831 488 E. [email protected] www.williamianson.com ! To many the 1950’s is still the most evocative era of sportscar racing. Le Mans at its heyday, the Mille Miglia, names like Moss, Hawthorn, Fangio and the start of transition of power from the big manufacturers like Jaguar and Ferrari to the more bespoke race car manufacturers like Cooper and Lotus.

  • Climax - an Engine to Be Proud Of
    Lotus Components Climax - An engine to be proud of The Coventry Climax company has some fascinating history having, in 1903, made, not only motor cars but, engines for car, boats and generating sets. In 1914 some of their earliest engines powered the sledges that Ernest Shackleton used on the British expedition to Antartica. During the Great War, the company made a variety of generating sets for military purposes, particularly for search lights. Between the two world wars many thousands of their engines, both petrol and diesel, were used to power British cars and lorries and during World War II Coventry Climax 'Godiva' trailer fire pumps became the standard equipment specified by the British Government. An enlarged version of 1098cc was built known as the FWA ('A' being for automotive) which produced 71 bhp at 6,000 rpm. The first of these engines was finished just in time to be fitted to a Kieft sports-racing car entered in the Le Mans 24 hour race of 1954. Although the car retired after some 10 \ hours with a seized rear axle, the new engine performed well upto that point. In the following September the engine proved it's worth in the same car by winning the llOOcc class of the RAC Tourist Trophy race. By this time more racing car constructors including Cooper and Lotus ordered FWA engines which by 1955 had been developed to produce 75 bhp at 6,000 rpm. These engines were very soon successful, collecting 69 firsts, 49 seconds and 42 third places in 98 events. Also Twelve International Class 'G' records were broken at Montlhery by a Cooper with a FWA engine, including the one-hour record at 125.34 mph.
