Jaguar Other Mark 1 Saloon MKI (1958)
for sale

Price: US $37,500.00

Description:

A Super Rare and unrestored example of a 1958 Jaguar Mark 1 Saloon Time Capsule with only 16825 ACTUAL miles. This Jaguar was purchased new in 1958 from Russell Scala Jaguar in Hartford, CT and then kept on a Castle like home in Meriden, CT where it was mainly chauffeur driven. In 1984 it was sold to a neighbor who had it featured in Jaguar International Magazine's March of 1987 Issue. During his ownership he gave the Mark 1 a paint respray in the original Jaguar black and still shows excellent today. The Jaguar was given to his son as a wedding gift in 2008 who had the engine rebuilt, polished and detailed. The very rare automatic transmission was completely rebuilt less than 300 miles ago and shifts flawlessly. The original and perfectly tuned 3.4 liter 6 cylinder engine runs super smooth and powerful with an amazing and unique exhaust note. Another recent completion was the custom installation of a Vicarage power steering unit system special ordered from London, England. This specially made for a Mark 1 Jaguar is a Rack n pinion steering with Billet aluminum pullys. A very costly modification approaching $5000 with parts and labor but makes for a much more pleasurable driving experience. The completely original interior is as beautiful as the exterior. The Saddle leather drivers bench seat does show years of patina but it would be a shame to replace such originality. Original carpets door panels, headliner and wood trim are all in very good original condition as well. A beautiful custom Moto-Lita wood steering wheel was just installed and the original is included. Custom made Coco mats were installed for the perfect added class. Along with the sale comes the original owners manuals, service receipts and Jaguar Magazine print out.
Please call me with any questions you may have or for more photos of this Beautiful 1958 Jaguar Mark 1.
