Sellers description:
1960 JAGUAR MK 2 SEDAN, 3.8 LITER ENGINE WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - MATCHING NUMBERS PROJECT CAR...IN NON RUNNING OR DRIVING CONDITION WITH SOME PARTS MISSING.

THIS IS AN ENTRY LEVEL PROJECT CAR FOR THE WINTER AND IS PRICED TO SELL

THIS CAR HAS SPENT MANY YEARS STORED IN A GARAGE UNDER BOXES BECAUSE THE ENGINE HAD SEIZED, IT WAS UNCOVERED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO AND HAS SINCE BEEN PARTIALLY DISMANTLED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER...HE QUICKLY FOUND OUT THAT HE WAS OUT OF HIS DEPTH.

THIS CAR COMES WITH THE FOLLOWING FEATURES:

* 3.8 LITER ENGINE, ALMOST COMPLETELY DISMANTLED, ONE CYLINDER IS SEIZED
* AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
* POWER STEERING (RARE OPTION)
* LEATHER RECLINING SEATS FROM A 1967 JAG MK 2 (PREFERRED OPTION) ALL SEATS ARE STORED LOOSE INSIDE THE CAR
* WIRE WHEELS, INCL SPARE
* WOOD TRIM IN VERY GOOD CONDITION
* HEADLINE IN GOOD CONDITION
* KNOWN MISSING PARTS INCLUDE: FUEL PUMP, HORN PAD, DOOR THREASHER PLATE IN DRIVERS SIDE REAR DOOR JAM....THERE MAY BE OTHER PARTS BUT IT IS MOSTLY COMPLETE AS FAR AS I CAN TELL

FLOORS ARE SOLID AS ARE THE ROCKERS, THERE ARE A FEW VERY SMALL RUST BUBBLES ALONG BOTTOM OF DOORS (MINOR), CHROME IS FAIRLY GOOD, GLASS IS WITHOUT CRACKS BUT DRIVERS VENT WINDOW NEEDS REPLACING, PAINT IS IN POOR QUALITY (FADED), LEATHER SEAT COVERS ARE POOR THE FRONT SEAT CUSHIONS HAVE BEEN RE-COVERED WITH VINYL, DOOR LININGS HAVE BEEN REDONE IN VINYL AND ARE IN GOOD CONDITION...THIS IS DEFINITELY A RESTORATION PROJECT AND IS NOT A PARTS CAR.
THE CAR ROLLS AND STEERS.

THE PHOTOGRAPH OF THE INTERIOR SHOWS VINYL SEATS WHICH HAVE SINCE BEEN REPLACED WITH LEATHER RECLINING SEATS...I NO LONGER HAVE THE VINYL SEATS. THE PHOTOGRAPHS AFTER THE ENGINE PARTS SHOW THE CAR AS IT WAS STORED & THEN UNCOVERED A FEW YEARS AGO. THE "JAGUAR" NUMBER PLATE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE.

MILEAGE SHOWN ON THE TACHOMETER IS 18,825 MILES...I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING FOR SURE IF THIS IS THE ACTUAL MILEAGE...IT COULD BE AND IS MORE LIKELY TO BE 118,825 MILES
