Vehicle Detail
1957 Jaguar Mk8 Great condition, numbers matching Mk8 The car was in California (San Diego) since the early 1960's, was owned by executive that transferred from New York. It was sold in late 1970's to the next owner who restored around 1986. The owner used it once a month until 1996 when he sold the car to a friend. The new owner left the car in the same garage and never drove it. The owner just previous to me ordered a Jaguar Heritage Certificate while in California and it confirms that all numbers match. He decided to sell the car in July 2013 when I acquired it and shipped it to Michigan via InterCity Lines. On August 4 the car arrived at a mechanics shop in Michigan and underwent a thorough review and work over the next few months. A list of the work accomplished is below. Fuel System Both carburetors rebuilt Both fuel pumps replaced Both gas tanks removed and refurbished (opened, cleaned, and coated) Lines replaced Both fuel sending units rebuilt Brakes All four wheel cylinders removed and rebuilt by White Post All drums removed and refurbished Servo replaced Lines replaced Cooling System Radiator removed and refurbished Water pump replaced Thermostat replaced Hoses replaced Body and chrome are in great shape for a 1986 restoration though there is dent from a computer falling on right rear fender when covered in the garage during the California Easter Earthquake on April 5, 2010. All of the lights work and the headliner is in good shape. Front half windshield chrome present, but missing two trim clips.
