This gorgeous sports car was passed down to the daughter of its original owner following his passing. It would eventually fall into the careful hands of a local broker after she sadly passed as well where it would then be purchased by Lillian, AL resident, and veteran Navy Captain Vince Cooke. At the time of the sale, the 1969 Jaguar had only 36,016 miles on the odometer. He would cherish his acquisition for the next 15 years with the car’s first base coat/clear coat repaint in 2004. After enjoying his all-original classic Jaguar for about 5 years, he elected to have the engine professionally overhauled by Ian Brown who was the Jaguar Technical Representative for North America Jaguar dealerships. It would be complete rebuild utilizing the original block, heads, crankshaft, and cams, with the head planed and the flywheel turned, with a brand new clutch kit installed. All other components would be fully rebuilt, replaced, or renewed. After 2,000 miles of enjoyment, Ian Brown and James Bamford would be asked to entirely rebuild the rear end in 2010, being renewed to like-new Jaguar standards.
