Cooper Jaguar T38

This car competed in the twelve lap 1950's Sports Car Race at the VSCC's Richard Seaman Memorial Trophies race meeting at Oulton Park in June 1993.
It's the 3.4 litre straight-6 1955 Cooper Jaguar T38 of John Pearson, chassis CJ-3-55, one of three cars built by Cooper for endurance sports car racing. One of the cars competed in the 1955 Le Mans 24 Hour race, but retired after 4 hours with an oil leak.
Here's the car rounding Lodge Corner during the race followed by the 1956 Aston Martin DB3S of Tony Smith.
