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.

Hi Henk.
The T53, actually owned by Giorgio Marchi and which I am the proud driver, has the chassis plate F2-5-60 (ex-Mclaren 1960 F1 car and ex-Brabham Intercontinental 1961 car) and it has the 2.5 FPF engine.
Is supposed to be another "works" T53 carring the #5?
Kind regards.
Enrico
