Cooper MkV1 (Lowline)

Following the split from the T51 thread, we have the 4 (?) Lowline works Coopers that ran during the 1960 season. The indication "T53" is generally used, but creates confusion, in particular because of the 1961 1.5 liter cars, that are also generally being referred to as T53.

We have
F2-5-60 (Workscar number one)
F2-8-60 (Workscar number two)
F2-12-60 (Workscar number three)
and possibly F2-17-60 (Sold to Brabham without engine).

I have seen two cars as #5 and #8 respectively, and there is a 2.5 1960 car owned by Italian Georgio Marchi, and driven by Enrico Spaggiari during the 2008 Monaco Historic GP and the Revival meeting. I have no number for that one.
