Hemmings Find of the Day – D-Type replica

Didja dig TA’s recent post on the annual C- and D-Type Tour? Then you’ll probably also dig one of the more recent cars to show up on Hemmings.com, an LR D-Type replica, built in 2006. From the seller’s description:

The LR D-type chassis was developed some years ago benefiting from design input from Raynard racing enhancing the torsional strength and limiting flex whilst maintaining the lowest possible weight. With recent developments on that theme the LR Chassis now offers strength and handling characteristics suitable for competitive track use, so demonstrated with the supply of Chassis and bodies for the Revival Motorsport project. The car on offer here importantly is fitted with a highly tuned yet usable Sigma engine breathing through triple Webbers. This car is suitable for Powered by Jaguar JEC Challenge or simply as a fast road car.
