Jaguar 1935 SS 90 01

Seabrook, Texas

this can be considered the uber Jaguar
it was the first roadster to have the name Jaguar from the Swallow Sidecar company founded only 13 years prior in Blackpool by William Lyons
this company pioneered the use of aluminum in its sidecars
its first venture into automobiles came with the Austin Seven Swallow built on an Austin Seven chassis which was produced in 1928
the company introduced the Jaguar line which included this fine roadster, the SS 90 Jaguar
during the Second World War the SS name took on unpleasant connotations and was dropped from the company name, becoming simply Jaguar
