I'd like to thank the members of the Academy for this honor . . . no really!
Actually, the show had Jaguar judging broken down into XK 120/140/150,
E-types, and Jaguar sedan classes. There was exactly *one* Jaguar sedan
present (ahem), so guess who got all the votes? Then they decided to
combine all the Jag classes and so I lost out to a gorgeous BRG series one
E-type 4.2 litre coupe. Not upset about it in the least!
Of course now if I sell the XJ6, I can ask more money because it's a "trophy
winner," right?!!
What a great weekend!
