Butler Cobra identification
Hi all,
would you be able to help with key things to look for to identify a Butler Cobra? Specifically, any frame or chassis serial # locations, decals, etc...? I read that Butler used a (frame #?) that started with BR... Again, thanks in advance for your replies. Stephen |
I don't have a definitive answer to your question, but it is my understanding that Ron Butler Racing supplied 60 chassis to Arntz at the end of the Type III run. These had a "BR" and the chassis number stamped into the front of the chassis.
When Arntz went out of business in late 1979, Ron Butler bought Arntz's molds & inventory. Ron Butler Racing built an additional 104 vehicles between 1980-1994. Ron Butler Racing cars have a stamped number on the front of the frame on the drivers' side, just behind the bumper mount which starts with BRI. The digits after BRI represent the month, year, chassis number. For examples, SoTxButler's chassis number BRI391086 which decodes as March, 1991, chassis#86. |
Identification butler
Bonjour à tous, je reprends ce post concernant l'identification de nos butler, je voudrai connaître le numéro de la mienne mais je ne vois pas où chercher exactement, est-ce que quelqu'un pourrait me poster une photo de l'endroit exact svp ? Je pense que là où il est placé je n'arrive pas à le voir... Merci d'avance !
