Real Facts

Today 01/03/10 we have opened our revised website and real facts be a new part what will be write in by Tom Zwakman regarding the truth and the lies about SS & Jaguar Cars.

The naked truth will be told about many important cars regardless who was wrong or dishonest involved, this will reveale and unmask many lies and untruth stories of so called jaguar related writers and specialists and historicus.

Politic acts are not only played in the cabinet but much more in the world of treasures like paintings & collectorcars and how more valuable the car how bigger the lies, most times born out the smell of money and greediness but sometimes born out a sick ego hunger to become somebody instead of nobody.

Many important cars will be mentioned and many well known names will be unmasked to the persons they really are.

The definition of a genuine car depends at the type and situation but the history be always the most important part however history can be forge and so made up but a lie can't have a base but as long as well known persons will confirm it must be the real thing most people will believe and there is a circle of well known people what have never do any different as telling fairy tales.

Real facts will be build in steps and first stories will appear arround the end of the year and revised by every quarter of the year. 

Today the 14th of august 2010 the biggest Jaguar SS100 related crime of the century has been encashed at the Gooding & Co auction Pebble Beach,

A supposed 1937 Jaguar SS100 # 39002 has been sold at $950.000,- excluding commision presented & discribed as the oldest 3.5L version in existance and being a genuine car which has been in highly original condition before the start of the restoration by J.D.Classics U.K.

The truth is that this particular car be not the oldest servivor as 39001 still does exist in proper health and actually today remains with continuing history in the Dutch SS-Jaguar museum.

Moreover the car now sold at the Pebble Beach auction has been sold previously by the first of September 2006 at a Bonhams auction at Goodwood and being a complete reproduction with no related documents or parts at all as only a body tag and a dubious engine supposedly of the original car, Bonhams did offer the car as 39002 but told in their brochure that no particular history been by hand as only that the car has been sold from the U.S. to a German collection and that they still tryed to research more history which they hoped to acquire before the actual start of the auction but nothing more has been added by the time the auction started, the car been the laugh of the sale and everybody been fully surprized by the 2 telephone bidders against eachother who did driven up the price to GBP 155.000,- for this badly construkted recreation.

The whole fairy-tale story as described by the present auctioneers around the sold car been made right after the sale at goodwood by the restoration company J.D. Classics and likely the owner of the car Mr Robin Green and it's amazing to see how just publisching coolly lies will color the indentity of a car from nothing to the sale of last night.

The car is nothing more then a nice reproduction without proper obtained identity and no previous history as only the fairy-tale made up after the Goodwood auction and worth (for everybody who likes to have a nice re creation of a SS100) arround $250.000,- so somebody now have lost around $700.000,-

The car has been recreated around the original body tag in the early 80's in the U.S. and made up from scratch and altered bits of other SS/Jaguar types.

At April 1988 the car has been sold by Blackhawk Auto Collections to Germany without any papers and described at the Bill of Sale as " Sold as seen and approved, one Automobile, Jaguar model SS100 3.5L, year of manufactory 1938 $35.000,- " not any sign of identity has been stated at this Bill of Sale, the discription showed clearly the care to not actually present a real SS100 so this Bill of Sale been correct and didn't tell any lies, the import documnets to Europe did state a container with 3 racing cars without any I.D. numbers.

So in the past Blackhawk & Bonhams have done nothing wrong in their statements but the present auctioneers were informed by myself before the auction started of some facts and they have not hesitate to still sell the car?   

Much more details and facts and pictures will continue later on.
