This 1962 Jaguar Series 1 FHC is Car #886184 and is a great project car that retains its original number matching 3.8L in-line six and Moss 4-speed manual gearbox. Originally finished in Opalescent Gunmetal with a Red interior per the Heritage certificate. The car was refinished in January 1980 in Jaguar dark Regency Red paint and shortly after that the interior was redone in black. The car is intact and mostly complete and original as shown in the photo gallery. The body is solid with straight lines and panel and door fitment and without any evidence of previous repair work. The floors, sills, and doors are solid as is the undercarriage. This car is a 'roller' last driven in 1989 by the current owner before its long-term storage awaiting a restoration. The engine turns over freely by hand after adding oil to all cylinders. Hydraulic clutch in not functional and only the handbrake is working at this time. The Jaguar Heritage Certificate document and a clear and clean WA state title are in hand.
