2010 (around) : The car arrived from the US to the north of France.

  • At reception, the car was in a light mettalic blue + black interior.
  • Complete car, in need of a total restauration.

2010 : The 1st owner in France (Lorraine region - Nancy area) started a complete rebuild at that time :

  • Long date Jaguar owner and restorer.
  • Mechanical engineer & owner of a garage.
  • French MOT (for the sale) : crystal clear.

2022 : The 2nd owner in France (Brittany region) has got the project to upgrade this car :

  • 1st upgrade is to replace the wire wheels by plain wheels + spats.
  • 2nd upgrade is to replace the original gearbox by a Toyota's one.
  • 3rd upgrade is to add a Hardtop.
  • 4th upgrade is to remove the foglamps.
  • All the original parts will be kept aside.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
