Heritage Notes
Factory & Delivery Clarification:
The official Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate (#74464) records chassis 670447 as a Left-Hand Drive Open Two-Seater built on 10 July 1950 in Cream with Biscuit & Red interior, allocated under Personal Export Delivery via distributor Gilman & Co (Hong Kong).
However, period French dealer documentation confirms the car was never delivered to Hong Kong; it was delivered new in Paris to Mr. SCHOLLER (or SCHOELLER ?), 68 Boulevard de Courcelles (Paris 17th), through local importer Royal Élysée / Charles Delecroix.
The car is currently preserved in France under restoration. Archive searches are underway with the Paris Archives to trace its original 1950 French registration (Seine - 75).
