1951 Jaguar C-Type Racer -- August 28, 2014
We visited the Blackhawk Museum in June, 2013 to drool over their collection of classic autos. This 1951 Jaguar C-Type Racer is number 14 of 53 built. C-Types won Le Mans in 1951 and 1953.
When I see Jaguars, I always think of San Francisco columnist Herb Caen, who had a love-hate relationship with the marque. I believe he wrote "Owning a Jaguar is like having a beautiful mistress with a social disease." I think newer Jaguars don't leak oil.
