This Car:
I have owned this car for 6 years. I bought it to enjoy & have done so for the past 6 years but due to family issues
I must sacrifice and sell it. The previous owner did a significant restoration on this Cat.
Brand new black leather interior comfort you on the inside. It has always been garaged, and is NOT driven in i
nclement weather, be it rain or snow.
This Jaguar runs great, the engine is strong and is easy to drive. Before I bought it the car it, was tuned and in top shape.
The engine idles great and oil pressure stays high. This Jaguar is fast; it turns heads and gets compliments anywhere it goes.
Has the much sought after Tripple SU Carburetor setup
All bright work/chrome is in excellent condition.
The engine compartment is clean and tidy. Like all Jaguars the engine is easy to get to, tune, work on, or show off.
All windows and doors have new weather stripping and this Jaguar does not leak. New dual exhaust sounds great
and is in the customary center rear exit position. The dash is in great shape and all gauges and lights work
(clock does not work). New black upholstery makes you feel you are in a new car.
This Jaguar is located in Sault Ste. Marie, ON, Canada, P6A 0B2
The paint is a 7 out of 10. There is bubbling of the paint on the drivers side grill/vents. This was there when
I bought the car & has not deteriorated further. Car has been maintained by a long time (40 years) Etype mechanic.
