James Baxter is a bit of a star. Sorting and running cars like this and the ERAs is a sevice to personkind. Arise, Sir James 🎖

We should have another interview with James Baxter coming on in a couple of weeks.

Nobody goes motor racing to see "Stewards Decision Making". It has now come to the point where they interfere with every race. I remember that Cooper on the front of Autosport magazine. It was red, IIRC. Beautiful car and so well looked after, congratulations, and thanks for showing it.

Brilliant to see cars like this out on the hills being used - thanks James.

Probably a whole lot better now than when it left the Cooper works in Surbition. A really unique F5000.

But the orange colour with the black stripes was the original colour as shown on the Cooper stand of the London Racing Car show in 1969

True, but B.R.G with white stripes was always the official Cooper 'works' livery, and looks better.

@@terryjacob8169 Well, yes and no. Even the Works-Cooper-Dowton Mini Cooper S touring cars of 1969 British Saloon Car Championship had the livery of bright orange (or was it yellow?) with black stripes. I think at that time the "national racing colours" did not make sense any more. The Lotuses were in Gold-Leaf colours etc. ... and John Cooper was not any more the boss of the F1 team any many more changes had taken place.
