    This Jaguar completed a comprehensive and fully documented restoration to a Show/ Driver level by Classic Showcase.

    Car Condition: Show/Driver
    This Jaguar has recently completed a comprehensive and fully documented restoration to a Show/ Driver level by Classic Showcase. It is a numbers matching example with California black plate and comes with a Heritage Certificate of authenticity. It has been restored in its original color combination of Opalescent Light Blue with Dark blue interior and a Dark Blue cloth convertible top. The restoration of this vehicle to a Show/Driver level included the following: Fully disassemble and document the vehicle. Body stripped to bare metal, metal work the body, fit all body parts and chrome, seal, primer, paint base coat, clear coat, color sand and buff all body panels individually off the car to perfection. New rubber, seals, grommets and gaskets, all trim and bright work replaced or re-plated. A new proper interior was custom made, fit and installed and includes leather sport seats and original wood steering wheel. The engine and transmission have been completely rebuilt, rebuilt carburetor, restored radiator, gas tank, new exhaust system fabricated and installed. All mechanical components have been gone through and brought back to exact factory specifications. Serviced, repaired or replaced hydraulic system and suspension. The chassis has been restored and other parts restored and refinished as needed. This is an ideal example for the Jaguar collector to add to their collection, drive, enjoy and compete in their favorite Concours.

    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?
