Message: [QUOTE="Sick Cylinder, post: 11029479, member: 179535"] This car would be a good competitor for the Jaguar XJ13 already in the game and unlike the Jaguar which never raced the Bizzarini P538 competed at Le Mans in 1966 driven by Edgar Berney and Andre Wicky. For the race additional lights were fitted and it raced as number ten. Like the Jaguar XJ13 it was made obsolete by the Ford GT40 Mark 2 seven litre before it had even turned a wheel. [ATTACH=full]461884[/ATTACH] The chassis were not stamped with numbers so it is unclear whether three cars were made or four, but it is known that some continuation examples were made later by Bizzarini as well as replicas by others. The following link is for an article on My Car Quest which features a video clip of a replica of the Le Mans car.
