Jaguar Super Sport special. Turbo charged! fantastic sound!

Jaguar Super Sport special, year 1962. Built in 1964 built and based upon a 1962 Jaguar E-type OTS... Around the year 1977 the owner decided to beef up the engine power using a Turbocharger. The exhaust manifold had to be re-arranged over the rocker covers to find suitable space for the carburettors and the Turbocharger. The engine became too high to fit in the engine room. A lower Jaguar XK 2.4 Litre engine block was taken of the shelf and bored out up to 3000 cc. Photo's and engine sounds from the Marc Vorgers ClassicarImages archives
