Kougar Sports kitcar 1964 Jaguar-based (DR-15-45)

You could say I was surprised when I saw this (for the 3rd time that day, but now finally up close). No idea what it was. But it turns out to be a kit car that is a classic on its own, being introduced in the 70's. About 200 were built.

This one is fitted with a 3.8 liter 6-cylinder engine, linked to a manual gearbox. Both are derived from the Jaguar S-Type; one of the donor cars of Kougar. Therefore the first registration date is declared in 1964, while the car was transformed into a Sports Mk2 in 1988. (some information from tachyon-motorsport.nl)
