Description: the ultimate iteration of the seminal mark ii model, this 3.8-liter overdrive-equipped example was recently discovered in minnesota, where it is believed to have lived for some time. While its earliest history is unknown, the mkii is quite attractive in black over red upholstery, and appears to have been very well cared for during its lifetime, exhibiting many original finishes throughout. Its matching-numbers original engine has been recently rebuilt, while the braking system was also rebuilt over the course of the past few months by a Jaguar certified technician. It should be noted that as the Jaguar has not seen regular operation in some years, a careful check of all mechanical systems is advisable before serious road use. The mkii is truly a Jaguar icon and style leader of the 1960's, eclipsed only by the mighty e-type in terms of stylistic recognition. Of all the mki and mkii variants, it is the 3.8-liter, overdrive-equipped mkii cars such as this one that are at the top of the heap. Fine, largely unrestored examples such as this are rarely coming up for sale today, making this opportunity all the more special. |
