Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Weber carbs, Dunlop knockoff wheels, wraparound Plexiglas windshield. One of two Costin bodied Lister Jaguars built for 1959 Le Mans (Bueb Halford DNF). Retired thereafter, possibly sold to Dave Ridenour in the U.S. but history is sketchy. Museum displayed since the early 80s. Peter Kaus Rosso et Bianco Collection.

Market commentary

Not as nifty as a Knobbly, but pretty sweet and Le Mans history as well. It would have been a better value under $200K, though.
