was it a maserati 3.0
in practice, also see
1037 & 0750TR
Note: Ettore Chimeri rented the car and entered it in Cuban Grand Prix. In the two day time trial practice before the race he was running near the back of the field and remained very uncompetative. The next day, Saturday February 27th, 1960 the day before the main race, late in the practice session, he lost control of 0726TR at the end of a long straight. He went of the road, was thrown from the car and died instantly. The car ended up in a ravine having traveled backwards into an embankment. The car was heavily damaged and Chimeri's mechanic after reporting back to Fayen decided that it was not worth the expense of recovery. The car remained far off the road at this site until 1963 when it was removed and dumped in a Cuban Military scrapyard.  
 

 

Reconstruction ?

Is this car built around the piece of chassis tube from 290 MM s/n 0606 ?
