Description
Today I am offering a collection from a former CMC dealer and long-time collector of these beautiful models. Almost all of them are in new condition in their original packaging with all accessories, as shown in my photos. If the model has leather straps to close the hoods, these have never been opened. In many cases, the security stickers are still present. Everything should be clearly visible in the photos. One or two of the original packages may show signs of storage.
You will receive an invoice according to §25a UstG without showing the statutory VAT for used goods.
Not suitable for children under 14 years. May contain small and sharp parts.
Model History
The 1953 24 Hours of France winning car, the triumphator. The Jaguar racing team dedicated the victory to the newly enthroned HM Queen Elizabeth that year; the car inexplicably rotted away on the Jaguar factory grounds. With this C-Type, CMC once again commemorates the triumph of 1953 and will offer you this winning car with #18 as a 1:18 scale model.
After a surprisingly clear victory for the C-Type in 1951 and a disastrous team failure a year later, the extensive preparations for Le Mans 1953 were meticulously carried out. Jaguar Cars Ltd. sent a total of four vehicles to France. The reward for the invested work: game, set, and match. On June 14, 1953, at 4:00 PM, the Jaguar boys reached their goal – all deployed C-Types crossed the finish line, securing first, second, fourth, and ninth places.
Winner of the 24H France, Tony Rolt / Duncan Hamilton #18 , Jaguar Racing Team
The endurance classic was Jaguar's main goal from the beginning, as they were aware of the marketing impact of a success at Le Mans. Accordingly, Jaguar focused on high reliability and good handling characteristics in the development of the C-Type. Jaguar balanced the aerodynamics for high top speeds. Chief engineer Bill Heynes did an excellent job. The chassis was newly developed as a spaceframe. Over this, Jaguar pulled a thin aluminum body with only one door for the driver. The design was created by the gifted engineer Malcolm Sayer, who a few years earlier had designed aircraft for the English Royal Air Force.
The cockpit was only protected by a small racing screen. The space inside, due to the struts of the spaceframe, could only be described as cramped. Yet, the Jaguar drivers found all the necessary instruments in the C-Type's cockpit, and even spare spark plugs and tools for repairs during the race event. After the complete failure of the factory team in 1952, four C-Types were completely rebuilt for the upcoming season: the revised engines received three Weber 40DCO3 twin carburetors, the body was now made of very thin aluminum sheet, and the rubber fuel tank came from aircraft construction. Jaguar used the newly developed Dunlop disc brakes and a servo booster for brake pressure assistance for the first time. For improved road holding at Le Mans, the rear axle received additional support and the front axle a stronger anti-roll bar. The effort paid off at the end of the race. The Jaguar boys won and also took second, fourth, and ninth places. William Lyons dedicated this triumphant march to the newly enthroned Queen Elizabeth. Her Majesty reciprocated in her own way, knighting the Jaguar boss in the spring of 1956.
