Description
We are delighted to introduce another rare Mark IV restoration project we are busy undertaking for a customer who wants to sell the car when it's finished. We're probably about 75% of the way through restoring a Jaguar Mark IV 3½ litre saloon in Black and Grey. This particular car was sold on 23rd April 1947 in Cape Town, South Africa and has chassis number 611078, identifying it as a 1947 RHD 3½ litre saloon, with engine number S1052 and we have a Jaguar Heritage Certificate for the car. The bulk of the restoration was carried out very well by another company here and we are simply finishing it off. The body, paintwork and floor have all been completed, the engine, gearbox, axles, steering, suspension, etc. all rebuilt and the interior was recovered, but we are doing some minor repairs and cleaning, as the car has been standing for about 4 or 5 years. The dashboard and instruments are currently being restored, so we have no idea what mileage the car has done, so the 75, 000 miles shown in the advert is actually meaningless! The advertised price is for the car fully restored and finished, so we are looking for someone to invest in the project, make a down-payment now and pay the balance in instalments until the project is completed, which we estimate will be at the end of Q124. Jeff's Jags is a specialist Jaguar and Daimler-only garage in Johannesburg, where we service, repair, restore and sell Jaguars and Daimlers of all ages. We also export to anywhere in the world.
