Car offered at the below seller. Note the previous California registration titled the car as J64P223217BW. The J64 prefix was added by California before its first sale but apparently deleted by France. That's unusual but not important.

Heritage registration with confirmed matching serial numbers.

Single registered owner from 1996 to 2024, nearly three decades of ownership.

This 1964 example is presented in an elegant grey shade, paired with a black leather interior and chrome-spoked wheels. It is equipped with an automatic gearbox, power steering, overdrive, a pre-heater button and a battery cut-off switch. After spending time in California, the car arrived in France via Belgium in 1996. It then remained with the same owner for nearly three decades before changing hands again in 2024.

A thorough reconditioning was carried out in 2025: complete overhaul of the braking system, replacement of all cooling hoses, oil changes and renewal of all fluids, restoration of the radiator, as well as refurbishing the power steering and several items of the electrical system. The bodywork has been polished, the chrome-spoked wheels were carefully cleaned, and the leather in the cabin has received touch-ups.

Offered with a Heritage Registration Certificate, matching serial numbers and an MoT valid until May 2027, this 3.8 Mk II—having benefited from extensive reconditioning—deserves your full attention.
