This is not you average restored Jaguar MK2. Desirable 3.8-liter example with S engine. This car was restored 10 years ago at a very high cost, the very little used and kept in superb condition.
In 2013 a major mechanical overhaul had been done to the tune of $ 11,500.-

The original Power steering had been replaced with a modern rack and pinion steering, the cooling system had been improved using Aluminum Radiator, Fan cowl, and electric cooling fan on a manual switch.
Also a modern radio and speakers where installed. And to make this all work the 35 amp generator had been replaced with a 65 amp alternator together with improvements in wiring, fuses, and voltmeter. A rotary A/C compressor makes for a working A/C. This car will not overheat.
The car as it is today is worth of showing at any car shows with no faults at all. It shows a bit of patina which suits the car very well, does not look over restored.
After careful inspection I belief this car had never had any rust, it appears to be never welded on.
