1959 Jaguar MK IX Saloon
1959 Jaguar Mark IX
1959 Jaguar Mark 9 (MK IX) Saloon, 3.8 Liter 6 cylinder engine, automatic transmission, fairly original condition as far as I can determine, although I am not an authority on Jaguars. This luxury car was originally titled in England, and found its way into the inventory of the Frank Dale and Stepsons dealership in London. This dealership primarily sells Rolls Royce and Bentley luxury automobiles, and this luxury Jaguar saloon at the time fit right into those ranks. Frank Dale and Stepsons was doing business at the time this car was sold in London at their Farm Lane facility and was operating at this location between 1972 and 1986 (plate in photo). No records show where the car was located after that point, but contact with Frank Dale & Stepsons (still in business) may yield some additional information. At some point between 1986 and 1999, this right-hand drive car was imported into the United States presumably from the United Kingdom, and the next records I have indicate that new Firestone whitewall tires were purchased for the car from Coker Tire Co. in February of 1999 when the car was running in the Los Angeles, CA area, where it remained until October 2019. The car is now located in DeKalb, Illinois.Additional work as detailed on the included receipts was done on the car in May and June, 2010 at odometer reading 69,692 (appears to be original mileage) to include:
- replacement fuel pump
- valve job
- head gasket
- ignition tune up
This 1959 Jaguar MK IX Saloon is sold on an 'as is, where is' basis, and no manner of warranty or guarantee is offered on this non-operational 60 year old luxury vehicle.Vehicle is currently located in Dekalb, Illinois. Please allow 7 to 10 working days after full payment has been verified and secure in seller bank account prior to scheduled transport to ultimate buyer location.
$1,500.00 non-refundable deposit payment required within 24 hours of initial sale. Balance due within 7 days after receipt of the deposit. Title will not be provided to the buyer until all funds have cleared seller's bank. Balance payment must be verified in seller's account prior to release or schedule of delivery of vehicle. Please do not use the U.S. Postal Service to send the balance of payment - they are notoriously unreliable for timely transactions such as a seven day deadline contained herein. Failure to meet the 7 day deadline for full payment may result in seller cancelling the transaction and the buyer forfeiting the non-refundable deposit. Buyer must take possession of the car within 10 days of the final payment clearing seller's bank. If the car is not picked up by this time, seller will store the car at buyer's expense for $200 per month or any part of a month, any storage payment due must be paid in full prior to pick up of the car or transfer of the title.
Trades: if you feel you have something of equal value that you would like to trade, you should sell it and then use the proceeds to offer a cash transaction for this vehicle. In other words, I am not interested in trades of any kind whatsoever, so please don't ask.
IMPORTANT:Please schedule any vehicle inspections PRIOR to purchasing this antique vehicle. The purchase and payment of non-refundable deposit constitutes a binding contract. No offers will be entertained subject to inspection and renegotiation of the price after the offer has been duly accepted. No exceptions, sorry. Please note payment instructions above.
