Vehicle Description
This week Canyon State Classics brings to market one of the most
solid MK1 Jaguar Sedans I've seen. Coming out of a 30yr local
ownership. This is the most pure form of what Jaguar expressed with
their early cars. It is a true statement of the Elegance of the mid
50's in Britain.
The following is a list of options as this MK1 is currently
equipped:
-3.8L MK2 6 Cyl Twin Carb Engine -3 Speed Borg Warner Automatic
Transmission -Restored Wood -Cork Tan Interior -Factory Radio
Delete The body on the car is in very good condition and was
extremely well maintained. There is no obvious evidence of any body
work or metal repair, this appears to be a rust free original very
straight body. The paint on the car is finished in a tan single
stage paint which is a good base to pick a color of your choice.
The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back
and is solid as a rock and well cared for garaged car should be.
All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in place and look
fair. The car is riding on the original steel wheels with dog dish
hubcaps wheels which look great and wrapped in brand new
radials.
The interior is in very nice semi-restored condition all around.
The dash and door panels are in very nice condition. The tan vinyl
seats are all in very good condition and show minimal ware, which
shows the quality of material used in this car. All wood grain is
in excellent condition. The carpets are all very nice are not worn
or damaged. All dials and controls function as they should, manual
windows are fully functional. All lights, gauges switches, and
accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very
clean and a good start for re-upholstery. This car is all there and
in excellent shape with all functions and accessories working as
they should.
Mechanically, this MK1 runs GREAT! The car starts right up and
shifts smooth as silk. The 3.8L is excellent. The engine sounds
good at idle and runs up and down the street excellent. The biggest
MK2 engine you could get really helps this thing GO! The engine
does have some oil leaks which will need attention.
The car will include books, huge stack of receipts and history
going back to around 1990.
All in all, this is THE cleanest and nicest Jag MK1 that I have had
the privilege of being associated with, and is surely one of the
NICEST in the Country! It has been professionally maintained and
truly loved by its previous owners. This Sexy Cat is a fantastic
car for the price and a one of a kind history. Any further
questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in
Sunny Mesa, Arizona.
