Seller's description:
1957 Jaguar Mk1 Saloon, 3.4L 6 Cyl, Auto, Long-Term Ownership, 21 Yrs of Docs!

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:
-3.4L 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 evidense 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 3.4L is excellent. The engine sounds good at idle and runs up and down the street excellent. 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.

This 1957 Jaguar Mk I sedan is said to have been purchased by the current owner in 1990, and a 3.8-liter inline-six from a Jaguar Mk II was installed a few years later. The car was repainted in a cream color in the mid-1990s, and the tan vinyl upholstery also has been redone. Equipment includes a three-speed automatic transmission, black 15″ steel wheels, hubcaps, four-wheel disc brakes, dual SU carburetors, front bucket seats, a center console, wood trim, lap belts, and a heater. The tires were replaced and a tune-up was performed in August 2025. This Mk I is now offered on dealer consignment at no reserve with an Arizona title.

The cream-colored vehicle was refinished in single-stage paint in the mid-1990s, the seller tells us. Exterior features include a Leaper hood ornament, a pop-up cowl vent, fender-mounted dual side mirrors, and chrome wraparound bumpers with overriders as well as a chrome grille, window surrounds, trim, and dual exhaust outlets.

Black-painted 15″ steel wheels feature Jaguar-branded bright hubcaps and are mounted with 245/75 Mohave Touring A/S tires that were replaced in August 2025. The car was factory equipped with an independent front suspension and a trailing-link rear suspension. Braking is provided by discs at each corner.

The cockpit features front bucket seats and a rear bench that have been reupholstered in tan vinyl, which is matched by the color-coordinated door panels. Burl walnut veneers adorn the dashboard, door caps, and window frames. Other interior equipment includes a center console, lap belts, beige carpeting, a heater, and front and rear vent windows.

The four-spoke steering wheel fronts a storage cubby, and the centrally located Smiths instrumentation consists of a 120-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer with an integrated clock, an ammeter, and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 55k miles, approximately 1k of which were added under current ownership. The seller states that the odometer reading is not accurate, and true mileage is unknown.

The 3.8-liter inline-six was sourced from a Jaguar Mk II and was installed in this car in the early 1990s, according to the seller, who states that a tune-up and oil change were performed in August 2025. Oil leaks are noted.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a Borg-Warner three-speed automatic transmission.
