I bought this car in 1981 and "fixed it up". I drove it for 12 years and then it had to be put away for a number of years (kids, mortgage etc!) Over the last 5 years it has been restored as a very nice driver, not concours but lovely just the same. I'm attaching a photo taken at The Ontario Jaguar Owners Concours in 2007.

Seller's description:

This is a Series 1.5 Roadster with the ultimate classic favourite colour, British Racing Green. The body colour is the standard British Racing Green for this period although the car was originally the lighter Fern Green. The current owner has owned the vehicle since 1980.

This car is equipped with the very desirable triple-SU carburetor set-up. The original engine for this car was replaced in the early 1980’s with the current one, which is an original triple carburetor unit. This engine was rebuilt as part of a comprehensive restoration in 2004. The entire power train, braking, steering and suspension were all restored at that time by Peninsula Imports in Oakville, ON. The car has travelled only 2,500 miles since then. An entire new, complete interior kit consisting of carpets, felts, Hardura mats, door panels, convertible top, boot etc., was purchased from BAS Jaguar in Vancouver. The leather trim and upholstery for the seats and console was professionally installed by BAS in their trim shop. The original Blaupunkt 3-band radio works well.
