HISTORY

POSSIBLY ONE OF THE EARLIEST SERIES 2 IMPORTED TO NORTH AMERICA . THE VIN SHOWS IT TO BE WITHIN THE FIRST HUNDRED SERIES 2 LHD ROADSTERS BUILT.

EVEN HAS DEALER INSTALLED ENGINE BLOCK HEATER FOR WINTER IN CANADA

WE DO NOT HAVE A DOCUMENTED HISTORY FOR THIS CAR. HOWEVER THIS IS WHAT HAS BEEN LEARNT THROUGH LOCAL INQUIRES ABOUT THE OWNERSHIP.

ORIGINALLY OWNED BY LOCAL JAGUAR ENTHUSIAST. USED AS AN OCCASIONAL DRIVER FOR 15 YEARS. ONLY PUTTING ON LESS THAN 48. 00 MILES.

DURING THIS PERIOD SOME BODYWORK WAS DONE AND THE CAR WAS RESPRAYED RED FROM THE ORIGINAL JAGUAR BLUE.

THE FIRST OWNER APPARENTLY THEN STORED THE CAR FOR 25 YEARS.

 CAR WAS THEN SOLD TO THE OWNER OF A LOCAL CATERING COMPANY WHO STORED IT FOR AN ADDITIONAL 5 YEARS. AS THEY PLANNED TO RESTORE IT.

AT THIS POINT THE CAR INTERIOR. SEATS. WEATHERSTRIP. TOP. BUMPERS WERE REMOVED FOR BODYWORK REPAIRS. THE FLOOR ON RIGHT HAND FRONT WAS REMOVED FOR REPLACEMENT BUT NOT DONE AND SOME SHEET METAL REPAIR WAS STARTED.

WORK SEEMED TO HAVE STOPPED EVEN THOUGH INCOMPLETE. MOST OF THE PAINT HAS BEEN STRIPPED.  THERE IS CORROSION IN ALL REMAINING FLOORS. TRUNK/BOOT. LOWER BONNET NOSE AND OTHER TYPICAL LOCATIONS. IT LOOKS LIKE WORK HAS BEEN DONE ON THE SILLS BUT IT IS NOT CLEAR WHAT WAS DONE OR HOW GOOD THE WORK IS.

THE MAJORITY OF THE CAR WAS SPRAYED IN RED PRIMER TO HELP PROTECT IT DURING STORAGE.

 AT THIS POINT THE CAR WAS RESCUED BY A LOCAL JAGUAR EXPERT WHO HAS RECENTLY DECIDED NOT TO KEEP IT

WE ARE SELLING THE CAR WITH CLEAR TITLE AND VALID ONTARIO CANADA VEHICLE REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST.
