Description:

1951 Jaguar Mk V 3-Door Sedan - Cream - 10,353 Miles Indicated - Holden 202 Inline-6, Trimatic Automatic



Overview



This 1951 Jaguar Mk V presents as a characterful British classic combining distinctive post-war Jaguar styling with an Australian mechanical conversion. Finished in cream, the vehicle retains the imposing proportions, traditional chrome detailing and period character associated with Jaguar's Mk V, while modifications to the drivetrain provide a significantly different mechanical specification from its original factory configuration.



The vendor advises the vehicle has been fitted and plated with a Holden 202 red motor, paired with a Trimatic automatic transmission. This conversion provides familiar Australian mechanicals beneath the classic Jaguar bodywork, making the vehicle an interesting proposition for an enthusiast seeking a modified classic suitable for cruising, further restoration or refinement.



The vehicle is configured as a three-door sedan with rear-wheel drive and currently indicates 10,353 miles on the odometer. Given the vehicle's age and modified drivetrain, the displayed odometer reading should be treated as an indicated reading only and not necessarily representative of the vehicle's total distance travelled.



Finished in cream, the Mk V retains the substantial and elegant appearance characteristic of early post-war Jaguar design. Its combination of traditional British styling and Holden mechanicals gives this example a distinctive character compared with a standard factory-specification Mk V.



Mechanical



The vehicle is powered by a Holden 202 cubic-inch inline six-cylinder petrol engine, commonly known as the Holden 202 red motor. The engine is paired with a Trimatic automatic transmission driving the rear wheels.



The vendor advises the engine and transmission conversion has been fitted and plated. Prospective purchasers are encouraged to review the vehicle and its associated compliance details to satisfy themselves regarding the conversion and suitability for their intended use.
