1949 Alta Jaguar - a photo on Flickriver

1949 Alta Jaguar

            This was one of the competitors in the Historic Grand Prix Cars Association Sports Car Race at the Christie's International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1992. It's the 1949 Alta Jaguar of David Clark, and is an Alta Chassis powered by what the programme of the event says is a 3,400cc Jaguar engine. I can't find out much about the car, but it was possibly at one time owned by George Abecassis who, together with John Heath, assisted in the development of the post-war Alta GP car before they left to concentrate on their own HWM project. The car behind the Alta is the 1956 Jaguar D-Type of Robert Brooks which was driven in the same race by John Harper.
