1958 Lister Jaguar

I took this photograph in the paddock at the Christie's International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1992.

It's a 1958 Lister Jaguar with no race number and didn't take part in the HGPCA Sports Car Race at this meeting - in fact there are no Lister Jaguars listed in the race at this meeting. I have photos of the car I took at Oulton Park in 1987 where it was entered by Aidan Mills-Thomas and is shown in the programme of that event as a Lister Jaguar with a 3,781cc engine. WTM446 has a chequered history. The car was apparently severely damaged at one point, to the extent that it's registration number (WTM 446) and chassis number (BHL126) were transferred to another Lister Jaguar. This change of identity was subsequently disputed, and the result was an extremely expensive court case in which the judge finally decided that it was not his place to decide such a matter. The court case is referred to in this description of the other car involved, a 1963 Lister Jaguar GT Prototype. The DVLA record currently shows no result for WTM446.
