Sellers description:
1959 Jaguar MKI 4 door sedan and parts car. This is a great car ready to complete the restoration. I bought this car and a mostly complete parts car from an elderly english lady. She and her husband owned a british car repair business in Concord, California for over 29 years. Her husband was a factory trained mechanic that went thru the apprentice program at Jaguar in England. They have owned this car since 1976. Her husband was in the process of restoring it and passed away. He just had new leather seat covers installed front and rear. Purchased a brand new factory fuel tank and other misc parts. I purchased the cars and have since spent over $400 in new tuneup parts to get it ready to run. At this point I don't have time to finish the restoration and am ready to sell the two cars at a resonable price. The main (silver) jaguar has a clear title. It appears to be rust free and will be a very nice car with some TLC. I have complete factory service manuals and original toolkit. Lots of extra parts. This car could probably be drivable in a weekends worth of work.
