About this car

This is chassis BT23/3, a 1967 Brabham works Formula 2 car driven by Frank Gardner.

New seatbelts and a new fire suppression system are fitted. It is described as suitable for the International Historic Formula 2 Series and comes with a new Historic Technical Passport. The listing shows it as sold, with the price shown as POA.
