Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Bucket seats, chrome braced rollbar, aeroscreen, steel wheels, louvered hood, bubble headlight covers, hood strap, front and rear bumpers, exhaust headers.

Condition

Bought new in Australia by well known racer Bib Stillwell and raced there until 1979. Prepared for vintage racing in the U.S. a few years ago, but not restored. Tired, dull old repaint, good upholstery, dull chrome. Aged instrument panel.

Market commentary

Sold at Bonhams Quail Lodge sale in 2005 for $46,000, then at Quail in 2010 for an undisclosed price before the recent competition preparation. This Jag has great potential as a vintage racer, continuing the career that began in Australia in the 50's, and isn't expensive at this price.
