1968 Jaguar 420 compact, manual/overdrive SOLD
I have owned the car since 1998 and in the first couple of years, it underwent major restoration work, including the fitting of new front chassis sections and crows feet, new door bottoms, welding work as required and a partial repaint. The vehicle was then put away in dry storage and did not re-emerge until quite recently. All the hard work has already been done – it now needs finishing off and re-commissioning.
The only filler used on this car was finishing filler; this has since developed minor cracks in three areas – on one sill, one door, and at the offside front corner, where it was bumped by a carelessly parked lawn tractor whilst in storage. There are a couple of other areas where the paintwork will require some finessing, including part of the bonnet where there has been a reaction, and there are some small spots of superficial rust on the roof, which is still in the original paint finish.
The headlining will need to be replaced, but the rest of the interior is very nice – the wood and carpets are good and the leather is excellent, with no deterioration to the stitching.
I have scanned the early photographs of the restoration work – please email me if you would like copies of these and further recent pictures.
The Jaguar 420 models are finally getting the recognition they deserve (with the independent rear suspension they are so much more comfortable that the Mark II for example and, to my eye, much better looking) and are now appreciating in value, particularly the manual/ overdrive examples.
Several people have asked whether this vehicle is taxed, tested and could be driven home - including one home in mainland Europe. As already indicated, it is an unfinished project; it has not been driven for over 15 years and would need to be trailered away.
The car is located in Harrogate, North Yorkshire – please phone or email if you require further information/ photos, or would like to view.
Thank you for looking!

In 1961, the first Jaguar E-type Series 1 saw daylight, and it was an instant success. I am sure one reason for that success was the incredible performance in relation to a relatively low price. The designer, Malcolm Sayer, had created something completely different from anything that had been built in the U.K. before ...
