I was wondering if anyone knows anything about the #83 Cobra Coupe entered by French Team owner Andres Chardonnet and driven by Jean Vincent to 20th in the 1964 Le Mans Trials. I have never heard of this Cobra Coupe anywhere before and wonder what the chassis number was and what happened to it.
It was entered in the 1964 race but did not appear. At that time there were two Shelby coupes and the AC coupe which ran at Le Mans. I don't think the Willment Coupe had been completed yet. This coupe is not any of those and appears to have been built by Chardonnet. Chardonnet entered a roadster CSX 6010 with hardtop in the '64 race which finished 18th. 6010 finished 22nd in the '64 Le Mans trials.
