1949 NUMBERS MATCHING BODY OFF RESTORATION

On This GORGEOUS LHD MARK V JAGUAR

PURE ELEGANCE FRONT TO BACK TOP TO BOTTOM!!!

This is one drop dead gorgeous automobile that is a show winner just about every time she ventures out of her heated and air conditioned environment. Every nut and bolt has been turned on her!! She has had her stock 3.5L ENGINE, GEARBOX, and her REAR AXLE completely rebuilt!! With just over 5100 miles on her since her body off restoration.

She had while undergoing her restoration a complete new wiring harness installed, as well as all new rubber and weather stripping put in place. Her wood is just breath taking and looks to be a foot deep as to its brilliant luster!! She has a wonderful and beautiful (REAL LEATHER INTERIOR) that is in simply superb condition. I liked the pleated interior in the 47 and 48 Mark 1V as opposed to the rather plain interior of the 49 and 50 Mark V!! So I opted for the pleated seats instead, as I think she looks much more like a high end and quality auto with them!! AND this Mark V exudes QUALITY all over the place!!

All of her brakes are as new and stop her perfectly even with your hand off the steering wheel, SHE DOES NOT PULL to either side. She has Stainless Steel exhaust that is as new. She also has her complete tool kit in place as well as a service manual. Her body is laser straight as she was stripped to bare metal primed and guide coated several times to get her perfectly straight. She has a bare minimum of body filler anyplace!! She was metal finished as well as could be done. Her paint is great and very FLAT (with very little to no ORANGE PEEL) and she SHINES!!! Her bright work is in very good condition. All of her lights in and out of her work as they should, IE Dash, All Running, License plate, Turn signal, and Brake!! And she has original working horns as well!!!

A complete catalog of pictures depicting her restoration will be sent along with a clear Title to the new owner of this truly amazing and fabulous automobile!!
