There were several Cooper Chevrolets about in the 1960s. Bryan Eccles had one in 1963 which Allen Brown discusses on oldracingcars. Chris Summers had an earlier one (1958 leaf-sprung F2 according to Mason). This went to Mike Gray who was killed in it at Barbon 1964. Did Chris Summers have another? I believe he had a Cooper Monaco Chevrolet for a short time in the mid 1960s. The Weston Speed Trials in 1963, won by Chris Summers in a Cooper Chevrolet, had G Balls in third in a Cooper Chevrolet. Was it a different car?
