This 1963 Jaguar Mk II is finished in brown over beige leather and powered by a 3.8-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission featuring overdrive. Additional equipment includes driving lights, wire wheels with whitewall tires, rear fender skirts, and fold-down rear seat tables as well as modifications such as fuel injection, air conditioning, a modern CD stereo, and electronic ignition. The car spent time in Arizona before being purchased by the seller’s brother-in-law, from whom it was acquired by the seller nine years ago. This Mk II is offered with several service records, three shop manuals, and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.

The car was repainted mushroom brown under previous ownership according to the seller, and features a Jaguar leaper hood ornament, dual fender mirrors, driving lights, and removable rear fender skirts. The seller notes rust in previously-repaired areas of the skirts as well as bubbling and a blemish on the right rear quarter panel. Paint chips are also pictured where the upper trunk lid meets the body.

Chrome 15″ wire wheels with two-eared knock-off nuts wear 640-15 BFGoodrich wide-whitewall tires that were installed in 2016. Stopping is handled by four-wheel disc brakes.

The cabin is upholstered in beige leather with matching side panels and carpets. Wood trim accents the dashboard and upper doors. Equipment includes an air conditioning system that was added by a previous owner, an aftermarket CD stereo, a locking glovebox, wing windows, a map light, two-speed windshield wipers, and fold-out wooden tables for the rear seat occupants. Three-point safety belts are mounted for the front seats, with lap belts are fitted for the rear bench.

A two-spoke steering wheel with a horn ring frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline. The seller notes that the inset clock is not working. The rolled odometer shows 6k miles, with approximately 8k added in the past nine years and total mileage unknown. Coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel gauges are mounted in the center stack along with an ammeter and a row of toggle switches.

The seller has converted the 3.8-liter inline-six from carburetion to fuel injection as well as fitting an electronic setup in place of ignition points. Rust is visible in the underhood panel ahead of the radiator.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The fuel tank was reconditioned and the pump replaced under current ownership.
