Opening bid $62,730 reserve not met, no bids yet 3 days left in auction.

Sellers description:
A very scarce opportunity to acquire a Proteus Jaguar C- Type Le Mans offered in awesome condition. This spectacular vehicle truly takes you back to the days of driving goggles, country roads and real racing cars!
The vehicle runs on a 1961 Jaguar Mark II chassis and has the full Proteus aluminium body. The engine is the 3.8 straight 6 with three twin webers and 9.5 - 1 compression and a cold air box, It is running 354 gears in the rear end and an aluminium flywheel, c-type rocker covers and balanced crankshafts.BHP is listed right at 310. The vehicle has a 5 speed tremec box and a 9.5 inch competition clutch. This beauty runs perfectly and comes with tonneau cover. The car runs on 16 inch Jag wires with lots of tread left on the tires.The only fault that I could find on the car is that the rear view mirror is cracked straight down the middle, but vision is not obscured.
