Description
The iconic Mk1 3. 4 salon as driven by Moss, Hawthorn and Salvadori in saloon car races in the late 50’s
This Mk was supplied to Clarke’s in Johannesburg in April 1958, and remained there for 45 years in a dry climate before being imported to Holland in 2003.
Hence the Jaguar is virtually rust free and original in every respect with even the original interior door cards and headlining being in excellent condition. All chrome work is present and she had a matching set of little used Michelin tyres. This is a matching numbers Mk1 with genuine mileage and good oil pressure, the instruments are all working correctly. Latterly the MK1 was in France and there are receipts for various recommissioning works. Finally the MKI entered the UK in 2021 and was duly registered with an age related Registration. Driven without fault this week for 50 miles, there is perhaps a decent full service required, but this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a classic Jaguar capable of being race prepared, or simply used sparingly. History file, Heritage Certificate and original sales brochures and Handbook are included in the sale. A South African suppled Mk1 Jaguar rust free and very original with an original interior in very good order.
