Seller's description:
1962 JAGUAR 3.8 LITER MK 2 SALOON: --Pearl Grey with Black leather interior, Black carpeting, Highly original, Triple carb 3.8 liter engine, 4-speed manual gearbox with overdrive, 83,000 original miles, Webasto folding sunroof, Wire wheels, Well-serviced over long-term ownership, 3-owners from new. Elegant and sporty, the 3.8 Mk 2 was one of the fastest four-door saloons in its day. It was stunning to look at and exceptional to drive. The 3.8 utilized a twin-carburetor variant of the engine for the E-Type. It shared the same block, crank, connecting rods and pistons. With 220bhp, the engine hauled the MK 2 to a top speed of 126mph. This example of the 3.8 Mk 2 has been uprated and fitted with triple carburetors to match the E-type as well as a synchromesh overdrive gearbox from a 420G. E-Type power in this sporty saloon packs quite the vintage punch, it is great fun to drive. This Mk 2 was produced on March 28th, 1962 and sold through Jaguar Cars, New York. Its first owner ordered the car specified with a manual with overdrive, chrome wire wheels and a rare factory Webasto sunroof, most have been converted after factory build and do not have the aluminum sunroof frame as on this Mk2. Later, the car was transferred to his daughter who kept the car in Connecticut until 1987. A Londoner summering on the East End of Long Island acquired the car in 1987 and stored it properly both in East Hampton and in Connecticut depending on his travels. The Mk 2 was used whenever he was in town. With all service records during this long-term ownership since 1987, this Mk 2 always received proper maintenance and care regardless of use. Anything and everything was serviced and well-kept to ensure it was always in exceptional mechanical condition. Further upgrades include a Harvey Bailey handling kit, sound system, new headliner, new carpeting, E-Type wooden steering wheel (original included), new tires, an alignment and a recent full fluid service. Having just three owners from new, this Mk 2 is in superb condition throughout. All systems work as they should. A recent road test attests its being in excellent mechanical condition and extremely fun to drive, especially with his uprated handling kit and power steering. This Mk 2 includes its owner’s handbook, original carburetors and manifold, original steering wheel, original rear wheel spats, original complete tool kit, spare wheel, jack, hammer, service records and its Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate. This Mk 2 represents a great value for a collector or enthusiast seeking an enjoyable and fun vintage Jaguar sports saloon.

This 1962 Jaguar Mk II sedan was completed on March 28, 1962 and distributed in the US through Jaguar Cars of New York. Factory finished in Pearl Grey over black leather, the car is powered by a replacement 3.8-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Additional features include a Webasto sliding cloth sunroof, a push-button AM radio, triple SU carburetors, four-wheel disc brakes, and polished 15” knock-off wire wheels. This Mark II is being offered by the selling dealer with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, a tool kit, owner’s manual, removable rear fender skirts, service records beginning in 1987, and New York registration.

Factory finished in Pearl Grey, the car is believed to have received paintwork some time ago. Exterior features include a Webasto sliding fabric sunroof, twin front driving lamps, and fender-mounted side mirrors. Removable rear fender skirts are included in the sale.

Polished 15” wire wheels are secured with two-eared knock-off spinners and mounted with Vredestein Sprint Classic tires that are said to have been recently replaced. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel discs, and the selling dealer notes that an alignment has been recently performed and a Harvey Bailey handling kit installed. A full-size spare is found in the trunk.

The cabin features seats trimmed in black leather along with matching door panels. The black carpets and gray fabric headliner are said to have been recently replaced, and shoulder belts have been fitted for front and rear seat occupants. Equipment includes a push-button AM radio, wood trim, and toggle switches for vehicle functions. Tears in the driver’s seat can be seen.

A wood-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel sourced from an XKE sits ahead of a wood dashboard housing Smiths instrumentation that includes a 140-mph speedometer and a 6k-rpm tachometer with an inset analog clock. Auxiliary gauges in the center stack include displays for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and amperage. The five-digit odometer shows just over 83k miles, though total mileage is unknown. The removed steering wheel is included in the sale.

The replacement 3.8-liter inline-six features triple SU carburetors and was factory rated at 220 horsepower and 245 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. The selling dealer notes recent fluid changes and describes corrosion on the underside of the vehicle.

The Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate lists the factory colors, production and dispatch dates, and identification numbers.

Auction description:

Vehicle Location Scottsdale, Arizona 85260

Mileage 85,538

VIN # P220676DN

Exterior Pearl Gray

Transmission Manual

Interior Black

Engine 3.8L DOHC I6

Condition Excellent

This 1962 3.8L model in its original Pearl Gray with black leather has been faithfully maintained and used sparingly by what are believed to be only 3 previous owners. Copious and well-detailed maintenance records go back to 1987 and the 84k miles indicated appear to be original. There is no record of a repaint and the body and brightwork are in outstanding condition with no evidence of rust or crash damage. The Webasto folding sunroof was reportedly installed at the factory and features a proper aluminum frame. All the interior wood has been refinished and restored and the leather has the perfect patina. A 15" wood steering wheel has been fitted and a rare, original Henlys center armrest/console was sourced, re-dyed & installed. Wilton wool carpeting was sourced and installed in May of '21 and is protected w/classic Coco floor mats. All gauges function accurately and feature LED lighting. The clock has been upgraded to electric & keeps perfect time.

The 3.8L XK engine in the Mk2 shared the E-type's block, crank, connecting rods & pistons, but had one less carburetor and 30 less horsepower. However, this example has been uprated with the E-type's triple SUs and a 4-speed OD gearbox from a 420G. The engine fires immediately and idles with characteristic smoothness. The gearbox shifts as it should and the OD unit lowers the revs at higher speeds allowing the Mk2 to function well in modern traffic.

Nearly $19k in maintenance & restoration was performed by the previous owner in May of '21 prior to our acquisition in Feb. of '22. Since then, we had a bespoke air conditioning system designed and installed by Classic Performance Restorations in Gilbert, AZ. The new A/C system blows ice cold and incorporates a Ron Davis aluminum radiator & SPAL electric fan to keep everything, and everyone, cool & comfortable in 100+ degree AZ heat. An alternator replaces the original generator and the electrics have been converted to negative ground. 5.5" MWS competition wire wheels have replaced the original 5" wide chrome units [included w/the sale] and ride on new, staggered Vredestein Sprint Classic rubber. Koni shocks and a Harvey Bailey handling kit round out the suspension upgrades.

This is possibly one of the best Mk2s extant with great owner and service history, tastefully upgraded for modern-day use. Included in the sale is an owner's handbook, original carbs & manifold, original steering wheel, original rear wheel spats, chrome wire wheels, original tool & jack kit, spare wheel & JDHT certificate.

ASKING PRICE $63,500
