JAGUAR MK II 1967 (F)
3.4 Automatic
Vehicle Description
For sale here is a 1967 Jaguar Mark II 3.4 Automatic with Power Steering. Finished in Opalescent Silver Grey Metallic with Red Ambla interior.
This lovely 340 had a two year recommissioning process carried out by the current owner. The previous owner had the Jag for a total of 19 years and spent considerable time replacing everything underneath that it needed, including the floors, crow's feet and various repair panels. The current owner says all the work has been carried out to such a high standard that the underside looks almost factory fresh.
Despite the car's sound condition the current owner wasn't happy with the finish and fit of the external panels, so undertook a full body strip down. Every piece of external trim was removed, along with the interior and the doors, boot lid and bonnet. Following this the full shell and all the panels had a gentle soda blast to remove all the original paint.
It was discovered that the front nearside wing had had a piece leaded into its top section that the current owner wasn't happy with, so this repair was redone. In addition, two small repairs were cut out from the lower window frame and the repair re-executed.
The boot lid had a few minor holes below the paint along the bottom edge so this was cut out and replaced as a whole. The body itself though looked as solid as it appeared before the paint was removed. The shell and all panels were then prepared, etch primed and painted in opalescent silver grey ' the Jaguar's original factory colour.
All the panels were painted off the car, along with the inside of the boot. The inside of the wheel arches and internal floors, along with the underside of the car were painted in body coloured Raptor paint, which gives a high-quality finish but also protects against stone chips.
All of the external chrome trim and lights were then refitted along with various new lenses and every single exterior rubber gasket and seal was replaced, including all the door seals and front and rear window rubbers. Finally, all the door shuts were adjusted and gapped correctly.
The wheels have been powder coated in the original colour to match the body work.
The 340 looks lovely in its Opalescent Silver Grey paint, which shines with a deep lustre. The matching wheels are also in superb shape, although the Avon tyres look a little old ' we'd recommend a new set before any spirited driving.
The car drives superbly and is a joy with the factory fitted power steering and automatic gearbox. We have the original Maintenance book with service stamps from 1967 to 1973 along with some old MoT's and a couple of service receipts.
The car will come with a fresh MoT.
