September Micro-Auction: 02 Sep 2020 - 1960 Jaguar MK II 3.8 Manual
Auction: 7:00pm, 02 September 2020 at Online
1960 Jaguar MK II 3.8 Manual
Guide Price: £25,000 to £30,000
Sold: £27,500
Manufacturer: Jaguar
First Registered: 1960
Model: MK II 3.8 Manual
Registration No: 910 NMY
Mileometer:
Chassis No: 201608DN
MOT: Not Required
Colour: Blue
This 1960 Jaguar MK2 3.8 Manual is an early example with the desirable recessed sun visors, pendant throttle pedal and smooth matt black centre dash section. The heritage certificate shows the car being UK built and then sent to South Africa direct from the factory. The car was originally painted in Cornish Grey and was believed to have been sold direct to the South African Police. The vendor has done some research and in 1960 the police did have a few 3.8 MK2s which were grey. The car is also fitted with a large CAV Dynamo and very large regulator, which is also believed to be police specification.
The underside of the car is very sound and most bushes, ball joints and suspension parts are visibly recent. The car is also fitted with four pot front brake calipers and ventilated discs. The rear brakes have also been recently replaced, along with Koni Classic shock absorbers. The engine runs very well and also benefits from 2 inch SU Carbs and a stainless steel exhaust. The interior is excellent, with new leather seat coverings, fully refurbished wood, new headlining and carpets. The car body work is in generally very good, but has some micro blister in a few places and some small areas of corrosion, but the sills and structure are very good. This is a very useable and good looking car that just needs a small amount of work to bring it up to an excellent standard.

The car has recently finished a light restoration, in the form of a full re-spray in indigo blue with a slight metallic tinge, with any rust issues addressed.

The restoration is accompanied by a USB stick containing circa 50 pictures.

This is a very rare and desirable early 3.8 example.
