Disassembled for restoration. Some suspension components powder coated. The car is about 90% complete. The major missing parts I'm aware of are the radiator, Steering wheel and correct drive shaft. The drive shaft I have for it is for a roadster. The roof was replaced and is 1/2" too low.

Sellers description:
Very nice 1968 2.5 series 4.2 Jag, with glass covered headlights and 2 stromberg carburetors. Very clean, no rust, chrome is good to excellent, wire wheels and knockoffs look almost new, upholstery has no holes or tears in leather, carpet is somewhat worn, but looks good, glass is all excellent. Has new front brakes and master cylinder. Starts right up with no smoke, transmission shifts smoothly, no grinding or jerking. Paint is fair, shines nicely, no dings or dents, but does have some minor paint flaws, a true 10 footer. It does have a Lucas electrical system and as such the original gauges are inop, but it does have mechanical oil pressure, temp, and voltage gauges installed, so you know what is going on, true mileage is unknown, but Ebay wanted a number. The headlights, taillights, turn signals, backup light work, but the emergency flashers and some other lights don't. The wiring should be repaired or replaced, after all it is a 49 year old British sports car with Lucas "the god of darkness" electical.
