1959 Jaguar eBay

Looks like it is already overpriced before the reserve is met!

For sure fantastic cars, but this one is a huge money pit. One to avoid IMHO.

Yeah, lets see some close ups of the sills, and rear spring perches. I tell all of my potential Jag customers"There is NOTHING as expensive as a cheap Jaguar" This car would be a case in point. Too bad, I like the MK1s. I want a 2.4 with the full spats, and OD.
 
This one can be expensive. Parts everywhere and being sold by an inexperience person for someone else. Some 59s had 3.8L engines and 4 -speeds. Doesn't list engine or tranny. I rebuilt my engine in 76 for under $2000 but I can't imagine costs now as the dollar has made some MK1 parts verrry expensive. I hope to blast mine this summer, but hope the economy stabilizes to bring prices down a little so I can get it finished without using the arm and leg payment plan.
