Chevron B8 is a sports racing car model produced by British manufacturer Chevron Cars Ltd in the late 1960s. It is a two-seater open-cockpit car with a fiberglass body and a space frame chassis. The car is powered by a four-cylinder, 1.6-liter Ford engine, which is capable of producing up to 170 horsepower at 8,500 RPM. The car features a five-speed Hewland gearbox and independent suspension with double wishbones and coil springs. The design of the Chevron B8 was inspired by the successful Chevron B6 model and was aimed at providing better aerodynamics and improved performance. The car's sleek and low profile body featured an aerodynamic nose and a distinctive tail. Chevron B8 was capable of reaching a top speed of 160 miles per hour and could accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than five seconds. Chevron B8 was a popular choice for sports car racing enthusiasts and was particularly successful in endurance races. It won many races, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 6 Hours of Brands Hatch, and the 1000 km Nurburgring. Today, the car is highly sought after by collectors and racing enthusiasts alike, and it remains an iconic model in the history of sports car racing.
