Seller's description:
Fully restored 1961 Jaguar 3.8 Mark 2 saloon with sunroof. A true two year 180 degree rotisserie restoration was just completed in May 2023.
The exterior color is JA037 Honey Beige wiith red leather interior.
It is a matching numbers car with the exception of the Borg Warner automatic transmission which was replaced with an identical DG-250MJ unit.
The car is equipped with a 3.8 engine with 9:1 compression ratio, limited slip differential, power steering and wire wheels.

The restoration included proper replacement of any deteriorated undercarriage components and a complete rebuild of all suspension components. Engine work included bearings, chains, tensioner, gaskets, front crank seal and lapping of the valves. Also included are new transmission gaskets, starter, water pump booster, master cylinder and all lines and hoses. The paint is single state urethane. chrome is excellent. The tires are truly exceptional: Coker American 670-15 S-rated radials built in the original bias ply profile. Stainless exhaust down pipes and NOS mufflers. The Webasto sunroof is completely restored and operates perfectly. I have a complete highly detailed description of the entire restoration that can be emailed to a prospective buyer.

Complete ownership provenance on the car since it left the factory will be provided to guarantee it authenticity and future value.
This is my seventh full rotisserie restoration of a Mark 2 and the last car I completed won a JCNA Concours first place in the JCNA New England Concours d'Elegance near Boston in both 2021 and 2022.

The car drives beautifully. The engine, transmission, power steering and suspension are all operating correctly. This is a correct left hand drive American export car with all red tail lamps, clear glass front flashers and chrome horn grills. Performance upgrades include: high output brake booster, high torque gear reduction starter, high capacity alloy radiator, XK140 air cleaners, coombs-style narrow racing spats. The original radiator, wide spats, and large pancake air cleaner are completely restored and will accompany the car.

The car is in New York State licensed and NYS inspected and all ownership documents are in order. All identification plates and stampings on the car are original and untouched. The car is in Rochester, New York.
