I've been asked to find a buyer for a MK II 3.8 Jaguar. It's an unfinished restoration project. The car has an interesting Royal owner which might make it attractive to someone. If anyone knows of a good buyer for these please post or email me for more details. Thanks.

I'm not sold on this past owner business and restoration projects are two a penny. It depends on how far the project has got really. For example, has the bodywork and engine been done or has he just got around to dismantling the car and lost interest? The latter is the classic and it is only worth breaking for spares in the main. Not easy to sell but I might know someone interested although the last two he rebuilt he was given for free just to clear up space.

This car has had body work restored and engine/gearbox rebuilt. I believe it was done by a company called Taylormade. Has anyone heard of them or have a number for them?

Which Royal and what spec is the car. The Duke of Kent was keen on his Jaguars.
Thanks

It was the late King Hussein of Jordan. It's a 1961 MK II 3.8 manual.
