1948 Jaguar Mark IV Drophead Coupe

  • Chassis Number: 637237
  • Engine Number: SL 3129
  • Body Number: C 1291
This Jaguar Mark IV Drophead Coupe is a left-hand-drive, U.S. delivery example that was originally delivered to International Motors, of Los Angeles, California, on June 25th of 1948. It still retains its original body and engine. The car was given a Concours-quality restoration which was completed in 2000. During the restoration, it was painted burgundy and black, with a black three-position top with landau irons, chrome wire wheels, whitewall tires, and interior woodwork. Period features including 'flip up' trafficator-style turn signals and Lucas road lamps, as well as a full and proper toolset, which was mounted in the proper location within the trunk lid.
