One of these cars was called the Spartan and was sold to Benjamin Studer Grindelwald, Switzerland at the end of It was fitted wth a 1-litre engine and used in the cc and cc class racing in Germany, Italy and Switzerland during , winning the Swiss championship. Salomona reseached the history of the car and provided excellent documentation to future owners. Salomona then sold it to Hansmarkus Huber who used it in historic racing from to When seen in Canada, this car was wearing a Chevron chassis plate stamped "Spartan P" chassis number "01". Entered by Bob Storz at the Monterey Historics in as 77 and identified in the program as Chevron B19 chassis no ''.
Believed to have been sold shortly afterwards. It is believed that this car has returned to England and is being rebuilt to B16 form. The B19s start to disappear in as they move into ever more obscure forms of racing. Also, they start to be described as B21s or B23s, or even B26s, making identification even more difficult. In Britain, Chevrons were used primarily in circuit racing rather than sprinting events. At this point Chevron sports cars started to be converted into "Super Saloons" for this highly popular evolution of Group 2 saloon car racing.
B19s also started to be used in historic racing, first with Paul Howarth and B in but this was just in guest entries and the HSCC did not allow B19s into their main championships until In French hillclimbs, Chevrons appeared in larger numbers in and and there were at least two unidentified Chevrons in this series in that were likely to be B19s or B21s.
See Intermission 2 - Championnat de France de la Montagne below. From onwards old B19s and B21s were used in the 2-litre class of Can-Am - back in International racing just as they were becoming 'historic' in Britain. Here is a further summary showing the location of the 35 B19s plus the B16S during and This does not include the list of mystery cars; only a couple of these do not reappear but both look likely to have been hire cars.
Four B21s racing in England at this time deserve a mention here to avoid them being confused with the B19s. Alex Seldon had a "1. Fourthly, Robin Smith no relation raced his rechassied B23 in and which had begun life as BA. Robin Smith's car was sold to Yorkshire hillclimber Laurie Curtis for but was only used briefly.
For the only English mystery B19, that of Tony Dean, there are two main contenders: Peter Richardson had B in July and probably into and Bobby Howlings had B in early Richardson's B reappears with Doug Baillie in May which just leaves room for Dean's ownership but the most likely contender is Howlings' B It will be moved to the relevant page later if necessary.
It may well have been a B21 but is included here as there is a significant chance that it was a B A week later, Dubos was killed in an accident in the 24 Heures de Spa-Francorchamps touring car race. Then Beckers suffered a second personal tragedy when Dupont committed suicide in September. Beckers recalls that the "B21" was sold with a broken engine to a Renault dealer in Le Mans. However, it was advertised by Vic Elford, then living and working in France, in In , it was entered as a B23, but in it had updated bodywork and was entered as a B Lepp was very briefly connected with a third car, Bobby Howlings' B which Lepp drove just once, at the Boxing Day Mallory Park meeting in The timing is right for this to be the same car.
The advert appears again in April No record has been found of Dean racing a Chevron sports car. Dean was often partners with Brian Robinson Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham who owned B at the end of and a B21 chassis B in and but this description does not fit either of them. It is quite possible that this is one of the B19s that emerged in historic racing in the early s.
In it was joined by the 'B21P' of Hiroshi Fushida which does not appear in the factory B21 chassis list but may have been the ex-works late-season B In , as may as ten more Chevrons appear in the series: many said to be B23s but more probably B19s and B21s with suitable updates. Both appeared early in the season. The other eight cars remain to be identified. For , three more cars appeared. Soon after Ampus, Marc Pozet appeared in a B23 which would prove very effective over the next three seasons and then Jacques Daumet arrived at the beginning of May in a fourth "new" Chevron.
Pozet's car may have been a brand new B23 and was certainly no older than a B Daumet's car was older and looks like it may have been B All six cars were referred to as B23s. Copyright R. Allen Olmstead. According to RacingSportsCars. It was photographed by Mark Windecker at Mid-Ohio and clearly shows Bstyle front and rear bodywork. Unfortunately, Don does not remember who he sold it to but Bill Rousch recalls that Chab crashed the car and that it was not raced again. As a rival to this, David Piper and Mike Knight started promoting "Super Sports" racing in , organising six prestigious races that year for 3-litre and 5-litre cars.
Inevitably, given the traditional flexibility of eligibility rules in historic racing, some 2-litre cars were allowed in but the only Chevron B19 to appear in the early years of Super Sports was the 3-litre BMW-Alpina B This class was announced as a Pre-'71 class but was interpreted as a pre Dec class, thus allowing in the B19s.

However, B21s and B23s wouldn't be allowed so work was needed to return some upgraded cars to B19 specification. Also, some Chevrons built new as B21s and B23s were also rebuilt to B19 specification during this time. Also in this period at least two new B19s were built and given suitable "cover stories" to qualify for historic racing. The actual quantity of new cars built isn't yet clear but is likely to be significantly more than two. These extra cars are listed with the mystery cars below.

The car was fitted with a Hart R engine and Chevron B31 bodywork, and was described at the time as Chevron B21 Cavalieri raced it in and , until a major accident damaged the car.
A new chassis was fabricated locally by Norman Thersby to suit the Mazda engine, and after some delay, the car was rebuilt by Andrew Thompson between and It was then sold to England on Cavalieri's behalf by Bryan Tyler, but it was described on arriving in England as a B19, and this was questioned, as the bodywork and engine were clearly not original, and the chassis was also not original.
