In the seventies Chevron, an English company founded by Derek Bennett, was one of the main manufacturers of racing, Formula and Sport cars. In Sports, Chevron had made itself known with the B8 and B16, then continuing with B19, B21, B23, B26 and B31. With the B36, presented in 1976, Chevron offered private teams a valid product, suitable for 2-liter engines. In those years, in the 2-liter class of Group 6, Chevron had another English manufacturer, the Lola, as its main competitor. Production of the B36 continued until 1978, the year of Bennett's death. The history of the Chevron continued with various other models. The B36s continued to be used by private teams on the track and in hill climbs until 1982 and today they are very popular cars in historic racing.
