This car competed in the Ten Lap Invitation Scratch Race for 1950s Sports/Racing Cars at the Vintage Sports Car Club's meeting at Oulton Park in August 1996.
It's the 1956 HWM Jaguar of Stephen Curtis and is powered by a 6-cylinder inline 3,781cc Jaguar D-Type engine. Originally bought from HWM in
1956 by Phil Scragg who, as a Hillclimb specialist, preferred his cars to have
cycle wing mudguards for use on the narrow British hills. He had many class
victories in SPC 982 and won the sportscar Hillclimb championship with it in
1959.
