By 1977 this car needed a total body rebuild, almost everything was done. By 1980 it was MOT'ed and the mileage shown as 85,000 miles. The car was off the road again until about 1997, when a mechanical rebuild was carried out by a well known Jaguar specialist. By 2006 the MOT showed a mileage of 93,000.

Auction description:
Dating from 1967, this particular car was treated to a full body restoration by renowned Jaguar historians Philip Porter and Paul Skilleter in the late 1970s. The car was then thoroughly injected with Waxoil and put into storage until 1997 when it received a second restoration, this time to the mechanical parts, by Derek Watson Jaguars. Some �10,000 was spent on a host of mechanical improvements including: a full rebuild of the original engine; uprated brakes; Kenlowe fan; new header tank; rebuilt suspension; electronic ignition; uprated alternator and full stainless steel exhaust system. In the current ownership for the last two years, the car is said to drive beautifully with excellent oil pressure when hot (40psi), even at three-figure speeds on the motorway. The bodywork is said to be in excellent condition with good panel fit and excellent chromework. The original black leather interior is nicely patinated and has recently had a Motalita steering wheel fitted. The rear brakes were also rebuilt in 2007 and a JVC CD player with MP3 USB port has been installed. The car comes with a large history file from new including many bills and photos showing the work carried out, an older green log book, modern V5C and a Heritage Certificate. Currently taxed and MOTd, it is due to be driven 80 miles to the saleroom and will be ready for its new owner to drive away today.
