1963 Jaguar Mark II Sedan; The ultimate iteration of the seminal Mark II model, this 3.8-liter overdrive-equipped example which has been very well cared for during its lifetime, exhibiting many original finishes throughout. Its matching-numbers original engine has been recently rebuilt. Since in Classic Showcases care this Mark II has undergone the following services: the under carriage was restored, new suspension bushings added, new exhaust, new U-joints, new bearings/seals /axles seals installed, replaced ball joints and A-arms, the braking system was rebuilt, the engine and hydraulic systems were completely rebuilt, rebuilt the carburetors and distributor, performed a tune up, added a new aluminum radiator, changed out the water hoses, added a new fuel pump, epoxy sealed the gas tank, added new carpet overlays in red British material with heel pads, it was shod with new tires, it was wet sanded and buffed to a lustrous shine, and it had the original bumpers and over riders re-chromed. This Mark II already had great interior wood and headliner. The minimum was done to the interior to keep the original patina intact, keeping with a very elegant look. It runs and drives well, and is outfitted with wire wheels, and has a perfect fit that still retains that great click shut noise. Accompanying the car is the original keys and a working original radio. With no rust, this is truly a very solid car. The MKII is truly a Jaguar icon and style leader of the 1960andrsquo;s, eclipsed only by the mighty E-Type in terms of stylistic recognition. Of all the MKI and MKII variants, it is the 3.8-liter, overdrive-equipped MKII cars such as this one that are at the top of the heap. Fine, largely unrestored examples such as this are rarely coming up for sale today, making this opportunity all the more special.
