Re: Jaguar E Type en Goodwood
Este E Type del video de Gregor Fiskens, no es un E Type cualquiera, su matricula es " 4WPD " y es nada menos que el primer E Type 3.8 prototipo de Light weight que se fabricó, una joya de la historia de Jaguar. ( Chassis S850006 ) S significa light weight, es del año 1.961. Lleva una culata " Wide angle " que es la que montaban los D Types de competición, y si se fijan en el video todavía mantiene su volante original. Los volantes de los E Types fabricados del 61 hasta mediados del 63 la parte de madera es totalmente redonda y algo mas gruesa que los post 63, que es un volante algo mas fino y tiene como una vena o pequeño rebaje en la madera.
En el libro Jaguar Sports Racing Cars by Philip Porter viene parte de la historia de este vehículo, que pongo a continuaciòn:
Supplied to Henlys, London (despatched April 14th, 1961) as a steel-bodied roadster. Sold to Coombs of Guilford as a demonstrator. In debut race at Oulton Park Roy Salvadori placed 3rd.
Car became works development car and increasingly prepared by works. Norbury Cup at Crystal Palace, Salvadori, 1st Place. Peco Trophy, Brands Hatch, Salvadori, 2nd place.
