Sellers description:
A Super Rare and unrestored example of a 1958 Jaguar Mark 1 Saloon Time Capsule with only 16825 ACTUAL miles. This Jaguar was purchased new in 1958 from Russell Scala Jaguar in Hartford, CT and then kept on a Castle like home in Meriden, CT where it was mainly chauffeur driven. In 1984 it was sold to a neighbor who had it featured in Jaguar International Magazine's March of 1987 Issue. During his ownership he gave the Mark 1 a paint respray in the original Jaguar black and still shows excellent today. The Jaguar was given to his son as a wedding gift in 2008 who had the engine rebuilt, polished and detailed. The very rare automatic transmission was completely rebuilt less than 300 miles ago and shifts flawlessly. The original and perfectly tuned 3.4 liter 6 cylinder engine runs super smooth and powerful with an amazing and unique exhaust note. Another recent completion was the custom installation of a Vicarage power steering unit system special ordered from London, England. This specially made for a Mark 1 Jaguar is a Rack n pinion steering with Billet aluminum pullys. A very costly modification approaching $5000 with parts and labor but makes for a much more pleasurable driving experience. The completely original interior is as beautiful as the exterior. The Saddle leather drivers bench seat does show years of patina but it would be a shame to replace such originality. Original carpets door panels, headliner and wood trim are all in very good original condition as well. A beautiful custom Moto-Lita wood steering wheel was just installed and the original is included. Custom made Coco mats were installed for the perfect added class. Along with the sale comes the original owners manuals, service receipts and Jaguar Magazine print out.

This highly original Mark I Saloon still presents in its original color combination of Black and Cinnamon. Its leather interior has been kept in its original condition, showing slight patina, which is normal for a car of this age. The rest of the interior is just as original, from its polished wood dash and steering wheel, split bench seating, and its Smiths gauges. The Mark I is scheduled for a full mechanical service, and an aesthetic detailing, but the paint and chrome are good and serviceable as is. The Saloon is a great candidate for the collector that desires to take this car to a higher level such as Show/Driver, or Show, level condition. This Jaguar may be purchased "as-is", or you may commission Classic Showcase to restore it to the level of your choosing. Mark I examples are one of the rarest models in the family of Jaguars, and as such, rarely come on the market, especially in such nice condition.

www.ebay.com/itm/394822908925

Current bid: $2,158 reserve not met, 4 bids, 9 days left in auction, seller motoexotica, 17k miles, car now in Fenton, Missouri

Seller's description:

The car was purchased new in 1958 from Russell Scala Jaguar in Hartford, Connecticut, then kept on a castle-like home in nearby Meriden, where it was mainly chauffeur driven.

In 1984, it was sold to a neighbor who had it featured in Jaguar International Magazine's March of 1987 Issue. During his ownership he gave the Mark 1 a paint re-spray in the original Jaguar black and still shows in very good overall condition today. The bodywork is straight and solid and the engine bay is tidy. The cargo area is clean and the chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body.

The Jaguar was given to his son as a wedding gift in 2008, who had the engine rebuilt, polished and detailed. The very rare automatic transmission was completely rebuilt less than 300 miles ago and shifts flawlessly. The original and perfectly tuned 3.4-liter six-cylinder engine runs super smooth and powerful with an amazing and unique exhaust note.

This big cat rolls on Cooper Trendsetter SE radials, size 205/75R15 at all four corners. Each tire is mounted on a steel wheel and topped with full wheel covers. The tires and wheels are all in very good order. The car has four-wheel disc brakes, state-of-the-art for the time. The car features independent front suspension with double wishbones, coil springs, telescopic dampers and an anti-roll bar. The live rear axle uses a simplified version of the D-Type suspension, with inverted semi-elliptic springs cantilevered into the main body frame

Another recent completion was the custom installation of a Vicarage power steering unit system special ordered from London, England. This specially made for a Mark 1 Jaguar is a rack-and-pinion unit with billet aluminum pulleys. A very costly modification approaching $5,000 with parts and labor but makes for a much more pleasurable driving experience.

The completely original interior is as beautiful as the exterior. The Cinnamon Connolly original saddle leather driver's bench seat does show years of patina but it would be a shame to replace such originality. Original Wilton Wool carpets are woven in the front but are covered by a new set of coco mats. Door panels, headliner and wood trim are all in very good original condition as well. A beautiful custom Moto-Lita wood steering wheel was just installed and the original is included. Custom-made Coco mats were installed for the perfect added class. Along with the sale comes the original owner's manuals, service receipts and Jaguar Magazine printout.
