Hello,
having read the Mike Hawthorn thread and all the discussions about the Mk 1 and Mk2 racing cars at that time, i came to the decision that the specialists in here could probably help me to find a serial number of a MK 2 Racing Car in the sixties.
Here is the story:
The car I am looking for has haf as first owner Mister Peter Lindner who was importing Jaguars to Germany. He became a good friend of my father as this one bought the first privately owned Jaguar E Type convertible in Germany via Peter. In the time following petervand my father raced with the ETypes all over Germany and where often quicker than the Ferrari 250.
Later E Type racing was out and Peter and my father continued racing inMK2 s. Father with F- J D 2 and Peter with WI - PL 11 and they were gsining a lot of races with them. After some tome Peter cbought a E Type Lightweight in which he did at Montlery France.
My father than bought they MK2 from Peters wife and the car got the immatriculation F - PL11 and continued successfully racing in Europe.
Some times later the car was sold to a third party unknown to me.
I would now like to know the chassis number of this car because one of the race mechanics of my father would like to have it for the book he is about to write.
As my father has died in the meanwhile I have nobody le to ask but you because all the institutions I was asking got no more documents of that time.
So I hope somebody could help me further.
If there are any question or photographs needed dont hesitate to contact me via mail. The address is:
dtype1957@gmail.com, as I am a proud owner of a reAl D Type Replica by Jaguar.
Thank you very much your help will be very much appreciated.
