This gorgeous classic car was passed down to the daughter of its original owner following his passing. It would eventually fall into the careful hands of a local broker after she sadly passed as well where it would then be purchased by Lillian, AL resident, and veteran Navy Captain Vince Cooke. At the time of the sale, the 1969 Jaguar had only 36,016 miles on the odometer. He would cherish his acquisition for the next 15 years with the car's first base coat/clear coat repaint in 2004. After enjoying his all original classic Jaguar for about 5 years, he elected to have the engine professionally overhauled by Ian Brown who was the Jaguar Technical Representative for North America Jaguar dealerships. It would be complete rebuild utilizing the original block, heads, crankshaft, and cams, with the head planed and the flywheel turned, with a brand new clutch kit installed. All other components would be fully rebuilt, replaced, or renewed. After 2,000 miles of enjoyment, Ian Brown and James Bamford would be asked to entirely rebuild the rear end in 2010, being renewed to like-new Jaguar standards. The body would finally receive the deserving attention in 2015 when the Gross Bros of Pensacola, FL would disassemble this car entirely giving it a proper bare metal repaint. This included multiple primer/sealer coats, and a stunning base coat/clear coat finish! A new windshield would be installed while retaining the original Triplex side glass. New rubber seals and gaskets would be installed, along with a brand new aluminum radiator, silver ceramic coated exhaust manifolds and polished stainless steel exhaust system fitted. Sadly, Capt. Cooke would pass away in February 2018 at the age of 83 and the Jaguar would sell on to the Belle Meade Collection in Nashville, TN. Today, the odometer reads only 44,957 miles, of which about 5,500 miles are on the rebuilt engine. A spectacular classic car for sale that is ready to drive and enjoy!
