Previously owned by a doctor who stopped driving it after 20 years, this car originally was to be procured by the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum but sat because many thought the engine to be seized. At this point the current owner bought the car, discovered that the engine still rotated and had it rebuilt to its current state. Although the car runs without issue and has been on several rallies, the owner has an open two-seater and prefers to drive that.
Photographs of the serial numbers and undercarriage available upon request.
Although this is a 1964 Jaguar, it has been well-cared for and has minor rust thanks to spending its life in the American South. The car was repainted in its original Imperial Maroon, but could use redoing. Service records and receipts on hand document work done by The Auto Shop using quality parts from Welsh Enterprises and SNG Barratt, two well-known Jaguar parts distributors. The block remained in the car during its rehabilitation, and a top-to-bottom refresh was performed.
