The Jaguar Enthusiast Magazine Podcast

Strictly No Admittance by Peter Wilson is a book telling the story of Jaguar's Lightweight E-type. The book's author, Peter Wilson was one of the small team of men who built the Lightweights in Jaguar's famed Competition Department. As the name of the book suggests, it was out of bounds to most employees at Jaguar! 

Just 12 were built, all in 1963 and they competed in major races across the world like the Sebring 12 hours, the Le Mans 24 hours, Goodwood Tourist Trophy and the Nürburgring 1000km. 

Drivers included Jack Sears, Graham Hill, Roy Salvadori, Jackie Stewart and others.

Today the cars are one of the most sought after collectors pieces in the classic car world. In this podcast, we meet the surviving members of the team who built them. We speak to Peter Wilson, Gerry Beddows, Frank Philpott, Peter Jones and Brian Martin at the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust offices, Gaydon. 

We are starting this content with kind permission from the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust, who filmed the session for their own archive collection. This is part one of two, so sit back , relax and enjoy as we transport you back in time to 1963 and Lightweight E-type production.

In this episode, Wayne Scott continues his in-depth tour of the behind the scenes workings of Jaguar parts supplier, SNG Barratt.

In this second part of our tour he concentrates on the areas of the business that are developing new parts to keep old cars on the road. From 3D printing to skilled craftspeople fabricating parts by hand we explore all aspects of reproducing and improving parts for classic Jaguars. We also have a poke around the old presses and visit the workshop of Peter Stant to explore how they test parts in real world conditions, on real cars. 

The tour ends in the design department where scanning and computer modelling is being utilised to create small production runs of complex components. We even pop in to see the IT department as well, which is larger than you might imagine! 

This podcast is a must listen to learn more about how unavailable parts are being made in collaboration with the Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club to ensure good supplies of parts long into the future.

In this episode, we have the first part of our behind-the-scenes tour of SNG Barratt. Wayne Scott pops in for a day at SNG Barratt to have a snoop around the warehouses, workshops, and offices with Julian Barratt for a detailed look behind the scenes at the one of the largest suppliers of Jaguar parts in the world. In this episode we meet Julian at the front desk at SNG Barratt’s UK headquarters in Bridgnorth, Shropshire. He takes us through the warehouse to walk us through the technology employed to search, store, pick and dispatch parts across the world. After that, we head up to the Lucas Lab where genuine heritage Lucas parts are still being made by a British team of craftspeople.

This week, we go behind the scenes at another Jaguar specialist, this time it is Tom Lenthall. In this in depth interview, we chat about Tom's early beginnings in the industry, his tales from behind the scenes working at a main dealer and some of the commonalities between Fords and Jaguars of that era. Plus, we discuss Tom's take on where the industry for classic cars is heading during these times of great change.

Kathleen Costley worked at The Jaguar as the folks in Coventry called the Browns Lane Factory during the 1960s. It was a time of great activity in the motor industry in Coventry, which was cementing its place in the UK as a vibrant, new and upcoming city. Kathleen's job was working in rectification, back during the time when paint defects reported on new or recently sold cars by dealers would see Jaguars heading back to the factory to be touched up. Kathleen's job was working on the track, as these Jaguars came in for paint rectification. Her job, was to mask the car up ready for painting. She could mask a whole E-type in just a few minutes. In this fascinating conversation, Kathleen shares her memories of her time working at The Jaguar during the 1960s. Including insights into working conditions, the unions and being a woman in industrial Coventry during that time. So, settle in and be prepared for a fascinating trip back in time.
