Lot #183520

This 1958 Jaguar Mk IX is said to have spent the last four decades stored in a barn before being acquired by the selling dealer as a non-running project in 2025. It is finished in black over Suede Green leather and has been fitted with a later 4.2L inline-six equipped with triple SU carburetors. Further details include a Borg-Warner three-speed automatic transmission, a Smiths push-button AM/FM radio, and a sunroof. This non-running Mk IX project is now offered by the selling dealer in Texas at no reserve with a Tennessee title listing the car as a 1959 model.

This car is one of 10,009 Mk IX examples produced over a three-year production run. It is finished in worn black paint and features a sunroof, Lucas auxiliary lights, fender-mounted side mirrors, rear fender skirts, and bumpers with overriders. Areas of missing paint and rust through are noted around the body.

The 16″ steel wheels wear Jaguar-Branded hubcaps and are mounted with older 5.50-width Firestone whitewall tires. The Mk IX featured power steering and four-wheel disc brakes, though the seller notes that the latter do not work.

The left-hand-drive cabin houses front and rear bench seats upholstered in worn Suede Green leather. A Smiths push-button AM/FM radio and rear-area clock are retained. Much of the interior wood veneer is delaminated, the headliner is missing, and rust is noted throughout.

The four-spoke steering wheel fronts centrally mounted instrumentation including a 6k-rpm tachometer with an inset clock, a 120-mph speedometer, and auxiliary gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level from Smiths as well as a Lucas ammeter. The five-digit odometer shows 3,100 miles, and the selling dealer states that total mileage is unknown.

The retrofitted 4.2L inline-six is equipped with triple SU carburetors and mated to a Borg-Warner three-speed automatic transmission. The engine does not turn over.

Rust through is visible on the underbody.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
