Purchased from a doctor who was restoring it and needed cash for another project. I took it over. New timing chains, paint about 8 years ago the original Guards darker red (which I prefer than the orange red of some early Jags), new interior and top then. I had carbs. and brakes fully rebuilt, suspension bushings , shocks, seals and axles bearings replaced, steering rack, some gauges and some other electrical items repaired. Chrome good, interior and paint presents well, newer stainless exhaust. restored to good driver level, not full show but reliable and engine has 148-150 PSI all cylinders and just purrs. This is a very collectable investment car, value going up, average retail mid 50's now, so a value at my price, as I want to finish another car too and thinning my modest collection. All my work by an English car restoration shop and first rate, Over $8,000 spent by me (over $50 invested) and by even more by the doctor who started restoration so about $20,000 invested to get it back to great condition. A solid investment, nned some cash for my next project.
