One of the most imitated cars of the 1930s, the Jaguar SS100
spawned a litany of replica vehicles through the subsequent
decades. We have one at MotoeXotica Classic Cars, titled as a 1974
Jaguar. Understood to be a replica SS100 manufactured by
Panther.
Dressed in red, the car's paint and trim are in overall excellent
condition with minor imperfections. The car's bodywork is straight
and solid, the engine bay is very tidy and the contrasting black
top snaps to the car's body. The car has no side glass; it has
plexiglass panels instead, complete with a sliding window for the
driver. There are triple windshield wipers to help clear the
driver's view. Up front is a combination of turn signals and
driving lights.
This Jag rolls on Goodyear Aquatred radials, size 205/75R15 at
every corner. Each one is mounted a wire wheel with knock-off style
centers. Out back is a full-sized spare tire and wire wheel. The
tires and wheels are all in very good order.
Under the louvered, vee'd hood is a 3.8L inline six-cylinder engine
and dual carbs. The motor is backed by a manual transmission. There
is a flaw on the hood paint, top right side as pictured.
Inside, the black interior looks excellent - including the bucket
seats, the carpet and the four-spoke steering wheel. The
twin-cockpit approach works for the dashboard. Tach, speedo, odo
and fuel gauge are inop. The doors open coach-style and the inner
panels look very good. A floor-mounted shift completes the
interior.
The SS Jaguar 100 is a British two-seat sports car built between
1936 and 1939 by SS Cars Ltd of Coventry, England. The
manufacturer's name 'SS Cars' used from 1934 maintained a link to
the previous owner, Swallow Sidecar, founded in 1922 by Walmsley
and Lyons to build motorcycle sidecars. In March 1945 the S. S.
Cars shareholders agreed to change the name to Jaguar Cars
Limited.
If you're seeking a unique Sunday driver for you and your wife to
take out at intervals, this Jag is a prime candidate. You won't
find many of these at cruise nights or car shows. Visit MotoeXotica
Classic Cars today to see it for yourself.
