1960 JAGUAR MARK IX, ( 9 ), runs, for parts or ambitious restoration

1960 Jaguar Mark IX

This car is rough, but very complete (except for the calipers). I have many of the brake parts: They came in a box when I bought the car. Floors have large holes up front. Trunk floor is rotted out. doors have rot. The car cannot be driven due to the lack of brakes, but I strapped this car to another and was able to pull the other car in forward and reverse so "drive" and "reverse" work on the trans. The car has a good radiator and grill (though there is some chrome pitting). I had a mechanic redo the head and rebuild the carbs, but the little starter carb needs to be replaced.
I would like to sell this whole, but will consider parting it, though I do not want to sell tiny hard-to-find parts first. I need offers on the more expensive parts before I will sell the small stuff. If you don't want the whole car let me know what part(s) you are interested in and I will list them in a separate listing. This "whole car ad" is up for only 7 days. If it doesn't sell look for it in the parts section.
Check in the next couple of days for more photos.
Odometer reads 12k, but mileage is unknown. It is interesting that the car has Armstrong tires with almost treadwear. The cars left the factory with Armstrong tires and the seller told me a lengthy story of how this car only had 12k original. I doubt the story is true, but it is striking how little wear there is on the tires, and gas and brake pedals, for example.
I reserve to cancel sales that are unpaid within 48 hours.
Thanks.
