I�ve been at it again � bought another Jaguar/Daimler. This is a
very sweet Series 1, 1971 and therefore UK road tax exempt. It�s in
2.8lt auto guise, short wheelbase. MoT till Nov 2007 but currently
not roadworthy as the engine running is very rough.
First impressions: a marvellous find, a little gem.
Did a bit of digging. Found the floors to be OK. The inner sill at
places were glass-fibre covered. There�s one rust hole on the
driver�s inner sill. Should be easy to repair. The rear wheelarch
on the inside is also rotted in a few places. Again no headache.
The radiator came out easily and looks OK. May not need a re-core.
The doors are good. The driver�s door has this round knob for
opening the quarter window. This knob has broken and I�m trying to
get to it. The bottom door card has come off but how do I remove
the upper card (covered in black leather?).
