HERE WE HAVE WHAT COULD BE A REALLY COOL CAR, ONCE IT IS RESTORED. THIS IS A 1960 JAGUAR SALOON MKIX (MARK 9) THAT HAS BEEN PARKED IN A METAL BUILDING SINCE 1989. I WAS TOLD IT WAS A RUNNING, DRIVING CAR AT THE TIME IT WAS PARKED. I FOUND PAPERS IN ONE OF THE GLOVE BOXES SHOWING THE OWNER HAD NEW EXHAUST INSTALLED IN 1989 AT THE COST OF A LITTLE OVER $1500.00. I PUT A BATTERY IN AND TRIED TO START THE CAR.. THE ENGINE TURNS OVER FINE WITH NO NOISE OF ANY KIND. I BUMPED THE STARTER BUTTON IN ALL THE GEARS, EVERYTHING THERE SEEMS TO BE WORKING AS IT SHOULD. WHILE I HAD THE BATTERY INSTALLED I TRIED THE WIPERS, TURN SIGNALS AND THE HORN, THEY ALL WORKED FINE. NICE LOUD HORN. I TALKED TO A JAGUAR MECHANIC WITH OVER 30 YEARS EXPERIENCE. AND HE TOLD ME IF THE ELECTRIC CHOKE ON THE DUAL CARB SET UP IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY THE CAR WILL "NOT START" , NO MATTER WHAT I DO???. AS I SAID I WAS TOLD IT WAS RUNNING FINE AFTER THE HEW EXHAUST WAS INSTALLED IN 1989 WHEN IT WAS PARKED. AT WHICH TIME THE OWNER INTENDED TO RESTORE. HOWEVER, DUE TO FAILING HEALTH HE WAS UNABLE TO ACCOMPLISH HIS DREAM BEFORE HE PASSED AWAY. THE CAR HAS HAD SOME BODY WORK DONE, THERE IS STILL SOME MORE WORK TO DO. NO RUST IN FLOOR PANS, A LITTLE RUST IN THE REAR OF THE TRUNK,(E-Z FIX). AND THE REAR VALANCE PAN BELOW THE BUMPER NEEDS REPAIR, THIS IS NORMAL FOR THIS MODEL CAR. FEATURES ARE AS FOLLOWS; RIGHT HAND DRIVE CAR NEW DUAL EXHAUST WOOD DASH & DOOR GARNISH HAS BEEN REDONE IN RED MAHOGANY RECENTLY, LOOKS GOOD. 3.8 LITRE ENGINE 220 BHP DUAL OVERHEAD CAMS DUAL S.U. SIDE DRAFT CARBS 4 SPEED TRANS WITH OVERDRIVE LEATHER BUCKET SEATS IN FRONT FACTORY TOOL BOXES GO IN EACH FRONT DOOR PANEL LEATHER REAR BENCH SEAT WITH FOLD DOWN CENTER ARM REST FOLD DOWN PICNIC TABLES FOR REAR PASSENGERS TELESCOPIC STEERING WHEEL MANUAL SUNROOF POWER STEERING DUNLOP 4 WHEEL DISC BRAKES ORIGINAL MW & LW BAND WAVE RADIOMOBILE RADIO WITH THE RCA DOG EMBLEM 16 INCH WHEELS FULL FENDER SKIRTS DUAL FOG LIGHTS, I AM PROBABLY FORGETTING SOMETHING. BUT I AM SURE YOU GET THE IDEA, THIS IS A COMPLETE ORIGINAL OLD JAGUAR THAT WILL NEED COMPLETE RESTORATION OR GET IT RUNNING AND ROAD WORTHY AND DRIVE AS YOU RESTORE. REAR DOOR PANELS ARE OK/ FRONT DOOR PANELS ARE OK WITH LITTLE WORK NEEDED/ HEADLINER NEEDS REPAIR/ DRIVER FRONT SEAT NEEDS REPAIR/ PASSENGER NEEDS LITTLE REPAIR/ REAR SEAT IS FINE AS IS, ONCE AGAIN THIS IS A RESTORATION PROJECT CAR. IT WOULD BE A SHAME TO PART THIS CAR OUT, BUT IF IT DOES NOT SELL AT A FAIR PRICE I WILL PART IT OUT. I PARTED OUT A 1961 MKIX RUST BUCKET FOR OVER $4500.00 AND SENT THE BODY TO THE CRUSHER. AND I STILL HAVE SEVERAL PARTS FROM THAT CAR LISTED ON EBAY & CRAIGSLIST. I HAVE TRIED TO DESCRIBE THE CAR TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. PLEASE EMAIL WITH QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. I WILL TRY TO ANSWER ASAP. I WILL HELP YOUR DRIVER LOAD THE CAR ONTO YOUR TRAILER. ANY AND ALL SHIPPING FEES AND ARRANGEMENTS MUST BE MADE BY THE PURCHASER.
