French registration
Our Jaguar Type S was first registered in France on October 22, 1964 in the property of Paul Meurisse, famous actor. Kept in the family of Paul Meurisse until 1977, it was immobilized for nearly 14 years in the dry before being bought in 1991 by a new owner who undertook a complete restoration of the vehicle and a change of engine. Indeed, the original 3.4L engine was replaced by a 4.2L engine coming from a Jaguar XJ6 with 5,300 km. The engine was fitted with the gearbox that was coupled to it: a 5-speed manual gearbox with overdrive. A new owner acquired the cat in 1999 and kept it for 15 years before selling it to the current owner. Many expenses were incurred by the owner in order to make this vehicle reliable and usable in any situation; thus, the following were rebuilt:
the clutch
the cylinder head gasket
the fuel gauge
front braking system
brake master cylinder
the stainless steel exhaust line
the carburetion hoses
the spark plugs
engine silentblocks
the fuel pump
In the cockpit, the passage of time has left a patina on the leather and the wood veneer of the dashboard, but everything is functional. Very comfortable and luxurious, our S-Type is interesting because of its history and its entirely revised mechanics.
