Jaguar's Heritage department facility enables us to know the precise details of this car's original build and how it correlates with the car today. As new it was delivered through Hoffman's New York agency on March 12, 1954 and supplied to its first owner a few weeks later on March 29. That gentleman was one R. Bell of Cedar Swamp Road not far from here in Coventry, Connecticut. Mr. Bell received his new Jaguar in an altogether more understated way than we see her today, being a scheme of Dove Grey paintwork, French Grey top and a tan interior.
Fast forward to the late 2000s, and the Jaguar either still resided or had returned to Connecticut as it was then owned by a Mrs. Dorothy Bronson of New Canaan, who's husband James had passed in 2006. It would seem that prior to this the Jaguar had received a thorough refurbishment in the more striking, but also ever popular period scheme of red with tan. It is not known how long Bell or Bronson had retained the car, but it doesn't appear to have transacted publicly and may have remained in this area for much of its life. Acquired by the present owner in 2008, the Jaguar has covered a little over 2,000 miles in the last 14 years, latterly with only more modest exercising. Work carried out over the years included a service prior to this ownership by Blackhorse Garage and some maintenance by Automotive Restorations. Today, its refurbishment has aged, and it would benefit from a thorough check over before proper road use and attention to its cosmetic details.
Presented in the purest guise for these cars, with the disc wheels and spats, it does retain its matching numbers engine and will no doubt provide a usable tour car for its next owner down the line.
