This 1967 Jaguar 420 Manual Overdrive was regularly raced in the 1980s and 1990s and comes with some history and time sheets from that era. The car had been laid up for some time before the vendor purchased it but was recommissioned three years ago and is now back on the road and is driving very well. The car was raced by Peter Cooper of CooperCraft and benefits from many period upgrades that include Coopercraft front ventilated disc brakes and upgraded XJ rear brakes with several added cooling ducts, fully poly bushed suspension, Koni shocks, XJ all synchro gearbox with uprated overdrive working on 3rd and 4th gear, rebuilt race spec engine with Burton cams, harmonic damper, lightened fly wheel, geared starter, Safety devices roll cage and seatbelts, limited slip differential, six branch exhaust manifold, 2 inch SU carbs, and a whole lot more. The car is in good solid condition but the paintwork is very poor and the car does need a repaint. The wheels have been replaced with the very rare and desirable 6 1/2J JAP MAGNA period alloy wheels. This is a perfect track day car that can be driven to the circuit, it is very quick and great fun to drive.
