Sellers description:
Up for auction is a beautiful classic 1961 Jaguar MK II 2.4, 4 Door Sedan; In excellent conditon for it's age! This Jaguar is ORIGINAL AND RUNNING GREAT! It is ready to go! The owner has taken very good care of her. This beauty only has 49,726 original miles on it!!! The new owner will be very happy and lucky with this purchase!!

The manual transmission shifts great into every gear. The car drives smooth and very well on the road. The brakes also work very well; with excellent stopping ability. The wheels have original hub caps and look gorgeous!

The overall condition of this Jaguar is great! The exterior is in very good condition. There are a few paint scratches on the left side of the car body and a few small paint chips here and there. Considering that this is the original paint job I think that any buyer will be very pleased with the exterior of the car! There is a notable dent on the right front side chrome bumper as seen in picture. There is some wear under the hood above the engine. The front grill also has a noticable minor dent on it. Other then that the Jaguar is clean and when the paint shines in the sun it looks amazing! There is no noticable exterior paint oxidation. The owner has always parked the car in a garage! She takes it out about once a week to keep the motor running well. This Jaguar has a beautiful original classic color scheme, the exterior is white and the interior is red! The only real work that this car needs is some upholstery work on the front seats, which is a small investment to make on such a beautiful and classic car that already runs so well! I would imagine that it would make a great project for any buyer or collector, and that they would want to decide on the little interior work needed for themselves. The rest of the interior looks very clean as seen in pictures! The back seats look amazing for their age! Almost everything is 100% original including the original radio that still works well! The car just looks great all around and anyone that looks at it will be amazed how well the previous owners have kept it. The current owner won the car on a private auction and has since put around $11,000 dollars worth of work into it. I can provide a detailed list of what kind of work has been done upon request as well. As mentioned before almost every part of this car is original including the Engine, Chrome, Paint, Interior, and more! There are however a few part replacements that have been made. I can also provide a list of those parts or components upon request. We have kept some of the original parts to include in the auction for the new owner. Everything looks great, the car needs nothing but a new home!!
