The Team CJ Low Drag Coupe is an alloy-bodied tribute to the world famous Low Drag Coupe created by the Jaguar factory when they modified Peter Lindner’s 1963 Lightweight E Type roadster (chassis # S850662). Malcolm Sayer designed the bodywork with improved aerodynamics, hoping to push Lindner towards the winner’s circle at Le Mans in the spring of 1964. Unfortunately, the car suffered mechanical problems which ultimately led to it being withdrawn from the race. Tragically, just a few months later, Peter Lindner lost his life when he crashed his Low Drag Coupe while racing in Montlhery, France.
In terms of appearance, the Team CJ Lightweight Low Drag Coupe very closely resembles the original Lindner Low Drag Coupe. Mechanically, it features a 4.7L CJ Stage Two engine producing around 390 HP and 445 ft/lbs of torque, as well as numerous Team CJ performance and reliability upgrades. The finished car will be 100% road legal.
The cost of a Team CJ Low Drag Coupe is $625,000, which includes the titled identity of an appropriate Jaguar donor car. Each car will take approximately 30 months to complete from commencement of the build process.
