D-Type Jaguar
DRB Sportscars are excited to present the historic D-Type Jaguar. Built on a lightweight chassis based on the successful DRB race car. The D-Type Jaguar won Le Mans on 3 occasions, and took 5 of the TOP 6 places in 1957.
Our replica D Type Jaguar is made as original as possible, and in keeping with the Le Mans winning cars of the late 1950's. The aluminium monocoque is almost identical to the original chassis from 1956. Incorporating the best combination of Jaguar front suspension, and modern live axle rear suspension, it facilitates the use of much more powerful disc brakes, and stronger drivetrain. It utilises a full GRP body representing the 1956 Works long nose car. You have the choice of engines and transmissions. Whether you use an original Jaguar 3.4L, Jaguar 3.8L or 4.1L, you will hear the glorious howl of the motor from the side exiting exhaust.
If you are looking for a slice of motor racing history, then the D-type should certainly be on your list. DRB Sportscars can supply this D-Type Jaguar replica that once assembled, makes the car a competitive yet striking Historical Race Car.
The body chassis comes with a large Vertical Stabilizer Fin as seen on the 1956 Le Mans Winner. Depending on your personal preference, this can be customised (or removed altogether).
From what we can tell, this is the most original D-Type Replica in the world right down to the rear suspension setup. No matter what specifications you choose build your replica to, we are sure the final product will exceed your expectations.
