Jaguar C type replica by Suffolk Sportscars.
This is probably the last un assembled C type from Suffolk Sportscars, as production stopped a couple of years ago, after circa 54 cars. Suffolk were generally accepted at the time as the most accurate Copy of the C type, (other than hugely expensive “Tool Room Copy” cars) by having torsion bar front suspension, & a solid back axle ( not IRS).
In addition Suffolk, had the Salisbury back axle shortened to fit the standard width body & fitted with the correct twin trailing arms & panhard rod location. The chassis only differed in a major way by having coil over rear shocks as opposed to the rear torsion bar.
The Suffolk Sportscar body was moulded directly from a genuine Jaguar Ctype chassis no. XKC039. & so is dimensional correct
For sale is complete chassis & body, the front and rear suspension, arms, wishbones uprights & shortened rear axle (new bearings, discs, splined hubs & spinners) new front & rear shocks, springs & torsion bars steering rack & upper & lower steering column, new fuel tank & Propshaft.
