I’ve always loved the Swallow Doretti, and the story of Frank Rainbow designing and building a car in 9 months.
The tragic thing is that it was killed by company politics. Jaguar didn’t like their steel supplier having a rival car on the market.
But, unlike most sports car histories (like the Healey’s) the Doretti was a financial success until the plug was pulled.
Ironic, because Swallow was the company that gave birth to Jaguar!
It really should have been the replacement for the TR2.
