Allen have we exhausted the search on the original B19 cars from owners 1-3?
the only car sin period to clarify seem to be the Itailan Trivalletto cars

ive looked thru yr ORC thread and agree there are some cars to be queried in the later 70`- thru the 80/90`s till now to nail full ownership data but it does appear that apart from autosport adverts on 2 or 3 cars getting names to the ads to nail down chassis numbers it appears that reading later 76-80 AS race reports/adverts willnot yield any more data

how are we getting on with Italian Autosprint reports?

There has been a flood of additional information and work pressures have prevented me from getting entirely up to date. In the meantime, here's a review of the questions still outstandning from 4 Feb:

What happened to your B19 after you raced it at the Brands Hatch BOAC 1000 kms 16 Apr 1972?

Kent Abrahamsson I am sure was Don Haldenby's landlord and I saw bits of the the Alpina in Dons workshop I recall Don saying it had a 6cylinder alpina engine in it.
As I said in my Email to you Don (who is Stirling Moss's mechanic) also used to work on SM Chevron, he tells a lovely story of rebuilding the engine in the BMW F1 workshops alongside the BMW F1 turbo engines, he worked late and the germans asked him to lock up!!! If you give me the questions I will talk to him.

Come off it Allen have you never been stuck behind behind it? the big yellow thing when you are in a hurry to get to the pub.

allenbrown · 9 Mar 2009, 20:07 (Ref:2412443)

Just happened to have some 1975 MN open and found a car that hasn't been mentioned before:

"Doug Baillie started late with his latest acquisition, the ex-DART Chevron B21" (MN 15 May 1975 p24. If it's ex-DART, it can't be a B21 as they didn't have one so must be a B19. And as the ex-Aston/Robinson B19 has already gone to Japan, it would seem vbery likely that this is the ex-Regan car.

I've responded by email as I'd like to keep individual AM numbers offline until I've collected more of them and started (I hope!) to find some sort of pattern

driftwood · 10 Mar 2009, 08:33 (Ref:2412790)

allenbrown · 10 Mar 2009, 12:51 (Ref:2412931)

Could this be the first ever appearance of a B19 in historic racing?

BRSCC Rufforth April 1977 - the Group Four Historic Racing Car race saw "the Chevron B19/23 of Paul Howarth. This car formed the base of Jonathan Buncombe's Super Saloon Imp, a Tricentrol Super Saloon sticker still visible on the side".

driftwood · 10 Mar 2009, 12:55 (Ref:2412937)

p261brm · 13 Mar 2009, 08:09 (Ref:2414743)

Laurence Kessler here responding to the inquiry above regarding my Chevron B-19 that I own and have raced at Monterey (and through out the states). I've already reponded to Allen, but for other interested parties, the chain of title to me was via Ed Swart thru Andreason. The car has just been reframed and the AM number is clearly visible. That has no relationship to the 08 number on the car.

**John Turner** · 2 Jul 2009, 20:56 (Ref:2495206)

Welcome, Laurence.
