Classic Car Overview

Gateway Classic Cars of Scottsdale is honored to digitally present this stunning 1953 Jaguar C-Type Sports Racer Replica, finished in the iconic Jaguar HFB Brooklands Green. Crafted by Proteus with a GRP fiberglass body molded from an original C-Type, this masterpiece captures the spirit of one of the most celebrated racing legends. The fully triangulated space frame chassis, powder-coated for durability, ensures a solid foundation, while the wheels and hubs add an authentic touch to this timeless design.

Under the hood, a rebuilt 3.4L Jaguar S motor, bored to 3.8 liters, roars to life with precision engineering. Paired with a Toyota Supra 5-speed manual transmission, this car delivers a driving experience that is both exhilarating and smooth. The engine features high-performance upgrades, including Weber 40mm carburetors, a high-capacity aluminum radiator, and a locking differential with a 3.31 gear ratio for optimal power delivery. Every component, from the Aston Martin distributor to the polished harmonic balancer, has been thoughtfully selected to honor its racing heritage.

Slide into the tan leather interior, grip the period-correct wood and aluminum steering wheel, and feel the connection to the road as you engage the 3-inch racing seat belts. The fully independent suspension, sourced from Jaguar XJ6 and XJS models, has been rebuilt to provide a balanced and responsive ride. Cross-drilled rotors, power-assisted disc brakes, and dual master cylinders ensure confident stopping power, while radial tires keep you firmly planted on the pavement.

As you cruise through winding roads, the Smiths gauges keep you informed, and the hum of the engine becomes a symphony of performance. This C-Type replica, complete with a tool kit and custom wiring, is a tribute to the golden age of motorsport. Whether youre carving through corners or enjoying a leisurely drive, this car invites you to experience the thrill of Jaguars racing legacy in every mile.
