At the Brooklands Autumn Classic Breakfast meeting on the weekend 24/25 October, David Ward with Angelo and Antonio de Souza met up with Philip Wilkins in his stunning Teal Type 35B boat tail with the Jaguar 6C/4200 engine and triple SU carburettors…

That’s Philip in the striped top talking to Angelo – most of us haven’t seen this splendid Teal before. Philip had come down from Essex, and has changed the MGB diff. for a stronger Jaguar one able to cope with the considerable power generated by the 6C/4200 motor…and of course it’s a Type 35 B, with the modified suspension (see photo 2 above)  designed by Bob Jones to take the larger and heavier  engines, to provide a lower stance on the road,  and an even more attractive frontal aspect.

This is a notable, exceptional and lovely Teal; we thank Philip for bringing it to the show at Brooklands,and David, Antonio and Angelo for the photos.
