I'm a old street rodder from the '60's reconnecting to the sport. I'm intrigued by the somewhat old thread regarding Jag rear suspension and the origin of it. I built the '23 "T" roadster with this suspension in the late sixties in conjuction with Les Erban and Joe Cardoza. This car, several years after I sold it, won the AMBR under the ownership of Chuck Corsello. Several of the posts at that time are very close to the actual events; perhaps I can help clarify what was happening at the time. I'd like to share those days and history with any intrested parties.
picked up an XJ-6 rear for my 31 DC8. ANY help would be fantastic- I have no idea what I'm doin. bearings or bushings etc ? Don
Checking to see if you’re still watching this. I lived close to Les Erban, and Joe was in a car club I was in. Les helped me build a rear Jag crossmember for my ‘34 at the time.
Here's some Jag memories.... https://www.49fordcoupe.com/Rebuilding-the-Jag-Rear-End https://www.49fordcoupe.com/Building-the-Frame https://www.49fordcoupe.com/Fixing-Jaguar-IRS-Brakes https://www.49fordcoupe.com/More-Jaguar-IRS-ProblemsFixes
Thanks Phil. In Boatmans post he mentioned Chuck. Chuck Corsello was the president of the car club I was in.
