Jim's one helluva guy that has really enjoyed his cars.

Incredible custodian and collection.

           "The incomparable highlight of the offering, however, is the 1955 Jaguar D-Type Sports Racer. Mr. Taylor's car, XKD 515, is considered by marque specialists to be one of the most original examples extant.........   


      Now we're talking!   

      But I'm afraid, even if I called-in all my notes, I'm still going to come up short!

It's been a few months and still no descriptions on the cars offered in the auction.
I'm wondering what is the CSX number is on the 427 in this link?

I'd be in for the Cunningham - but being on a fixed income now I don't know if I could afford the gas.

It just might be csx3299. It seems to match in details to the photo in my files

[sd427]

There is a picture of the number in the photo gallery in that link, 3299.

THANKS...
I didn't see that stamped black frame part that confirms it as CSX 3299
Too busy waiting for the description and looking for the aluminum firewall ID plate

That's quit the collection.  I sure like those manual Hertz cars and the 65 GT350 and the Cobras of course.
