1951 Jaguar Mark V Saloon Mark V Saloon

Hi Thank you for checking out our auction.

I have spoken to a great number of you from across the world and truly appreciate the conversations about and sincere interest in this rare 1951 Mark V Saloon. The curb appeal of this car is amazing and I hope the Mark V goes to anyone of you that love the 1951 Jaguar Saloons and Drop Head Coupes. This 7 Day relist auction will run to the end of auction unless the Mark V sells locally first before the reserve is met. if the reserve is met here on Ebay the Mark V will sell in this Ebay auction. so let's give this ago again.  

Up for sale is an extremely rare 1951 Jaguar Mark V Saloon with 70114 miles on the odometer. Our goal is to sell the Mark V just the way we found it. This car has been sitting undisturbed in a garage for over 40 years. What's even more astounding is the fact there is no rust through areas on the body or frame. only surface rust that actually has recently occurred since the Mark V been spending sometime outside undercover. We chose to not undercoat the under carriage because we wanted to offer the Mark V the way we found it. in our experience if it is just surface rust to undercoat over monitored surface rust will cause more work during the actual restoration phase.  

From 1948-1951 there were only (10. 99) of the Mark V's produced. with a merely (1902) of this Left Hand Drive (LHD) 1951 Saloon model being auctioned in this Ebay listing. so not many left in the world and certainly very few left as solid as this one. Another thing to consider is 1951 was the last year Jaguar produced the Mark V Saloon. This rare find has the factory upgraded High Performance Straight Inline Six 3. 5 Liter Z engine option. distinctive by the Z number on the Fender Tag Engine No. Z2631 (please see pictures of the Fender Tag). The Mark V's engine is coupled to a 4 Speed Manual transmission which was standard for the 1951 Mark V Saloon and Drop-Head Coupe Models. The chrome and glass in this amazing vehicle is in excellent shape. All of the factory tools and accessories to the Rear Hatch Tool Kit is there as well. if you have seen these cars before you may have noticed many are missing an item or two from The Mark V Tool Kit or the Tool Kit is no longer present with the vehicle. In addition to the Mark V's full Tool Kit is an from the factory spare parts kit with some of the boxes still unopened and an original bill of sale for the parts along with the original owner hand written record of  his purchases (Please See Pictures).  

What I would consider the only ruff area of this car is the interior. which will need reupholstering but everything is present on this Mark V to do a period correct restoration. The wood trim is all at hand (to include the missing Dash Board piece next to the steering wheel in the pictures) and the wood trim can be restored. There is one small dent on the Passenger side front fender and one small dent on the midway point of the passenger side rear fender. Both dents occurred during storage so no disturbance to the body lines of this 1951 Jaguar Mark V. the body panels are very straight and properly aligned. Due to the Mark V sitting as long as it has (40 Years) we highly recommend refurbishing the gas tank. carbs and fuel lines before pouring gas into the tank and attempting to start. The engine does turn over freely with no audible sounds to indicate any issues. The previous owner did state the engine ran great when the decision was made to store the 1951 over forty plus years ago. Feel free to request more pictures and I will email them to you. I don't deal with any junk. this 1951 Jaguar Mark V is an amazing find and the real deal. Please check out my feedback and bid with confidence.   

We Thank you for your time.
