C-Type in Detail
|
With the nose off, the C-Type shows some XK120 underpinnings..radiator and front suspension clearly are evolved from the street car. While the C-Type earned it's reputation in part due to it's disk brakes, the early cars had drum brakes, as does this example. Suspension components were borrowed from the Jaguar standard parts bins.
