PLEASE NOTE: Since the vehicle has arrived at the sale we have identified the parts below:

  • Matching numbers cylinder head and block for a 3.8 Litre XK engine (see photo's)

  • X2 Unpackaged leaf spring suspension

For many the definitive Jaguar sports Saloon, the MkII was introduced in October 1959. A peerless blend of elegance and muscularity, its sleek lines clothed an evolution of the Coventry marque's first monocoque. Powered by derivatives of the same XK DOHC straight-six engine that had swept Jaguar to five Le Mans victories, the MkII was quick to dominate contemporary Saloon car racing. Equipped with coil-and-wishbone independent front suspension, a leaf-sprung Salisbury rear axle and four-wheel disc brakes. Available with 2.4, 3.4 and 3.8 Litre engines and with either automatic or manual transmissions, the MkII is still a desirable and usable classic in modern times.

This example of the desirable 3.8 litre MkII is a fantastic opportunity for someone to get stuck into a Jaguar restoration. Bought as a project (the White shell pictured online is not included in the sale). The shell went for prep and primer whereupon it was decided it was too far gone, so another shell was bought (the shell pictured with surface rust). It is offered with a collection of parts including but not limited to: retrimmed leather seats in cream - in very nice condition (invoice on file c.£1,400); 5x 'new' wire wheels; an overhauled gearbox; an engine – not overhauled; 1x bodyshell; 2x bonnets, 1x boot lid, 4x front wings; 2x spats; an overhauled axle; 5x ‘new’ tyres - from a few years ago; spare door cards; old carpet trim; front and rear number plates for ‘SYN 222F’ matching the V5; roughly 10 boxes of spares in varying states of condition. It is being supplied a collection of invoices, old MOTs and a V5C.
