FWIW I read in the November issue of Octane magazine (UK) that Chevron cars (the Company) has been bought by Chris Smith, founder of Westfield sportscars. The article states "the first Chris Smith built Chevron B8 will be ready for it's maiden outing at the V de V meeting at Estoril in November".

It goes on to say that "later there will be a B16 while spare parts for early cars will be made available to current Chevron owners".

THere are no contact details in the article. The Westfiled company was sold a while ago & I guess Mr Smith is the ideal sort of chap to keep the Chevron brand alive.. apparentley the company purchase came with many original drawings, jigs & moulds.

Hope this may be of some help to you guys.
