Description

For sale is this 1963 JAGUAR MARK X MK 10 TRIPLE SU CARBS

Up for your bidding consideration is one of the best Jaguar MK10 projects I have ever seen. This is a matching numbered 1963 Jaguar MK10 and is supposedly a two owner from new. The car has sat in a garage since 1974 when its owner sadly passed away. His son has been the caretaker ever since! The last time the car was driven was somewhere in the 2000’s and upon being taken off the road in 74 it hasn’t seen much use, hence the low original miles of 70k. It is unbelievably rust free and will make a wonderful project for its new owner.
The body on this Jag is seriously one of the most rust free European cars I have seen, and I have found no cancer anywhere! This is a huge deal when restoring these cars as many are plagued with rust issues. The body has sustained minor dings and dents and scratches over the years of living in a garage, and its paint work has seen better days. The sons father had the car resprayed in what I believe to be the original color somewhere in the early 70’s and it was not a stellar job, so an obvious re paint is in need. The chrome is of average condition and is fine and showable for a driver quality car.
The interior is very serviceable and has a nice patina. As most of us know, the wood and leather gets expensive in these cars, especially when starting with junk. The wood in this car is in my opinion only needing a scuff and re varnish. I don’t see any split or warped wood with the veneer flaking off, so this is a huge plus. I believe the leather can be fixed and made to look pretty decent with a competent leather specialist, or at the worst new seat hides will be needed. A lot of the interior is in a remarkably well preserved condition and is the last thing I would address. New carpets and addressing the seats would do wonders.
The trunk area is very nice and seems to have the original spare, tool kit and jack. Very cool!
The electrical in the car seems to be in working condition. With a battery hooked up most things work. Lights, ignition, horn, signals, blower motor etc all seem to be functioning. This is not a car that was left outside with terminal corrosion issues. Not to say there wont be any cleaning needed, but all seems to be in very nice shape.
The engine spins freely and even fired right up with a couple of sprays of starting fluid. With that being said, im sure this car can be a runner driver with minimal work, But all systems will need to be gone through or rebuilt as any car that’s been sitting for a long period of time. Brakes, carbs etc will all need attention. Im sure the AC system will need an overhaul.
Overall, this is a fantastic opportunity to get into a beautiful and unique English sedan with serious collector grade appreciation. Recently a stunning MK10 sold for 100k!! This is a well optioned car and is certainly the “right one” to do. Please feel free to call my cell at 425-802-8682, or the shop line at 425-556-0261 with any questions.
