JBW
Former car manufacturer
JBW Cars was a British racing car manufacturer in the late 1950s, who were a Formula One constructor from 1959 to 1961. Brian Naylor, an amateur driver from Stockport, financed his mechanic Fred Wilkinson to build a number of sports cars that were competitive against second-level national fields but were not competitive on the international stage. As well as constructing their own sports racers, JBW also prepared and entered Cooper single-seater racing cars for Naylor to drive in Formula Two and occasional Formula One events.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
