Jochen Rindt / Cooper-Climax T77 (1965)
I always forget that Rindt wasn’t always a Lotus man.
Rindt started with Brabham, for a year in 1964, and then again for another year in 1968. In between he drove his share of Coopers, both the V8 Climax and Maserati V12s

This is the Austin Mini Cooper “Twini”.
It had no less than two 1000cc engines and a four wheel drive system. This was taken during the 1963 Targa Florio.
