I am son of Jack Harold Robinson & would be interested in gathering some information about his haydays in motor racing. The only memory i have of the car is when Dad sold it whilst we were living at La Perouse in the 1960s. The only memory i have of this era is one day when we went to a motor festive at Oran Park in the late 60s watching one of Dads closest friends race, Otto Stone. And so many people coming up & saying to Dad, "Jack, if only you had the money behind you to keep racing".
Dad was of the understanding that the car was sold to an enthusiast & wrecked, resold to another Jaguar enthusiast who has since restored the vehicle.
Any information of anything would be much appreciated..
