Any help with be greatly apricciated . ps the car was entered as G1 and it was white with a black roof with number 44 on the door ,I have also found a pic of the car on the Karussel at Nurburgring. while restoring the car I found a document tucked behind the door card , it is writen in German and I can't make it out bu it says :
AUTOMOBILCLUB VON DETCHLAND
ALLGEMEINER DEUTSCER AUTOMOBIL- CLUB

OBERSTE NATIONALE SPORTKOMMISSION
FUR DEN AUTOMOBLISPORT

I'm sure someone from Germany with results records will be able to help. I do not speak German but the wording effectively says "German Automobile Club. National Governing Body for Motorsport in Germany". I'm not sure whether the last line is an address or some sort of registration of the car for motorsport.
What engine size is it (1071cc or 970 or 1275)? "Dry" (not Hydrolastic) suspension? If it competed in Group 1 then, the only modifications allowed would have been, I think, a maximum of 2 additional front lights.

Happy Birthday, infiniti !

Drink one for me, ok ?

All the best

Thanks for replying. the car was built in may 1964, it is has the rubber cone suspension and the engine size is 1275cc with the early dump tube open crankcase breather and the vertical oil cooler under the generator. acording to the chassis number it would be the the 43rd cooper S built with the 1275cc. I've searche for a while now and it seems to me that most of the 1964 info on rallying got swalowed buy the bmc win at monte carlo.

OK, that was what was at the back of my mind - that the Cooper S was not homologated in Group 1 until later (1275 only ever was), so "G1" seems likely to refer to a German national class, not the FIA Grouping (which might help narrow it down for anyone who has results). (The oil cooler was not fitted as standard until later either - only just in time for 1966 I think - so if Trifels 64 was an International event, the car ran in Group 2 or 3 of the old Appendix J)

I also have a document wich points out the car was shiped to Great Britain and worked on by Alexander tuning later that year and the engine was rebuilt to G2 specs. possibilaty the oil cooler was installed then???
