This superb example of this British classic sports car was converted from left hand drive to right hand drive and is presented in the ubiquitous British Racing Green with pale green leather interior. The car was the subject of a circa 30-year body off restoration and result is absolutely stunning. Its walnut dash and door cappings are superb, the green carpet is in great condition and the present owner has fitted a new unleaded cylinder head, rebuilt the period correct carburettors and had the wire wheels resprayed and powder coated. This Jaguar has covered only a mere 100 miles from its restoration and comes with a Heritage Certificate, various invoices, stainless steel exhaust and a modern radio is cleverly located behind the ash tray. This car sounds fantastic, looks just as good as it sounds and is a real head turner. This must be viewed to truly appreciate the meticulous restoration and the finish on the car.
