This 1950 Jaguar MK V is one of approximately 577 left-hand-drive drophead coupes built with a 3.5-liter inline-six during a year and a half of production, and it was completed on May 24, 1950, before being delivered new to Beverly Hills, California, dealer Peter Satori. Wearing an older repaint in cream, the car is said to have spent much of its time in California before being purchased by the selling dealer in February 2024. Additional features include twin SU carburetors, a four-speed manual transmission, hydraulic drum brakes with duplex actuation up front, independent front suspension, 16” body-color steel wheels, rear wheel spats, a beige three-position convertible top, red leather interior upholstery, and an Emitron radio. This Mk V DHC is now offered with a tool kit, a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, and a clean Colorado title.
Originally finished in Suede Green, this drophead coupe is now finished in cream and is said to have received a repaint under previous ownership, while a replacement beige three-position convertible top was reportedly installed in 2014. Features include rear-hinged doors, rear wheel spats, chrome bumpers with overriders, driving lights, and fender-mounted side mirrors.
Body-color steel wheels wear matching hubcaps and are wrapped in 6.00-16″ Firestone Deluxe Champion tires. Stopping is handled by four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes with duplex actuation at the front wheels.
The cabin houses front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in red leather with matching upholstery over the door panels and rear side panels. Additional features include red carpeting, an Emitron radio, front lap belts, a fold-down rear armrest, wood door caps, roll-up windows, and dual gloveboxes with a lock on the passenger side.
The four-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a wood dash panel that houses Smiths instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, a reverse-sweep tachometer with an inset clock, and gauges monitoring fuel level, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and amperage. The five-digit odometer shows 80k miles, approximately 50 of which have been added under current ownership.
The 3,485cc inline-six features a seven-main-bearing crankshaft, pushrod-operated overhead valves, and twin SU sidedraft carburetors. Output was factory rated at 125 horsepower at 4,250 rpm. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale, and a leaking fuel line was repaired in June 2024.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission with synchromesh on its top three gears. Suspension combines an independent wishbone and torsion bar front setup and leaf-sprung solid rear axle, with telescopic shock absorbers up front and hydraulic lever-arm shocks at the rear.
The Jaguar Heritiage Trust Certificate lists the original colors and equipment numbers as well as delivery in California.
The car’s engine number, T9535, is listed as its identification number on the title and is shown stamped on the data plate above. A stamp could not be located on the engine block.
