This MK II was originally finished in Cotswold Blue, and it was repainted in the current dark green under prior ownership according to the seller. Exterior details include a leaper hood ornament, driving lights, chrome bumpers with overriders, and front and rear vent windows.
Chrome-finished 15” wire wheels are secured with two-eared knock-off hubs and wear Michelin tires that were mounted in 2020, at which time the steering rack was replaced with a rebuilt unit. Braking is managed by four-wheel discs.
The cabin was trimmed in Dark Blue leather from the factory and was reupholstered in green leather under previous ownership. A Kenwood CD player is mounted in the center stack, burl wood trim accents the dashboard and doors, and wood picnic trays are provided for the rear occupants.
A wood-rimmed steering wheel frames Smiths instrumentation including a 140-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer, and a five-digit odometer showing 2k miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The twin-cam 3.8L inline-six is equipped with dual SU carburetors and features an exhaust manifold clad in heat wrap. The engine was overhauled by Authorized Imported Cars of Flemington, New Jersey, in 2017, and additional services completed at that time are outlined in records pictured in the gallery below. Service in 2020 included an overhaul of the throttle linkage and replacement of the fuel supply hose and clutch hydraulics.
Cylinder-head stamping LA 8633-8 corresponds with the engine block stamp shown in the gallery as well as the engine number noted on the chassis identification plate and on the Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through an overdrive-equipped replacement four-speed manual transmission that was serviced in 2022 with a replacement clutch and flywheel.
