Beautiful car. My Dad a blue Mark X back in the late 60s early 70s. It was huge, he called it the aircraft carrier. What's next? Who will restore the mechanics?

[@jaygatz4335]

One fine automobile whose dignity has been restored. Great job!

[@chrisparsons7043]

You did a great job on that, I have owned a few here in England. The excellent chrome, solid panels and the fact it's complete and possibly all original makes it very desirable.

[@IanStenner-nt7fv]

Thats a proper Jag!, always loved the mark tens, still more elegant and better looking than the modern day crap car makers produce these days, thanks for saving her!

[@kennethtalbott2233]

yep, just bought one, well a 420G

[@IanStenner-nt7fv]

@kennethtalbott2233 nice one!, does it have picnic tables in the back?, love all the wood and leather interiors back then, nobody did it quite like Jag

[@kennethtalbott2233]

it does indeed mate with the mirrors attached. also got a nice set of woodwork to replace the existing and yesterday at a show i ordered a complete new interior, seat covers carpet headlining etc.😃@@IanStenner-nt7fv

[@matthewmckee9914]

Yeah cars today lack style and prestige.

[@kennethtalbott2233]

yep, wouldn't thank you for a modern car. i have several cars and my newest is twenty two years old...oldest is fiftysix @@matthewmckee9914 😂

[@OrnumCR]

Interesting you said it was the smaller S-Type. I saw it and instantly recognised the mighty ‘Zenith’ or Mark 10/420G. First released just after the E-Type in October 1961 (E-Type was March that year at Geneva), this big model predates the smaller S-Type/420 variants by a couple of years…I had two of them. I purchased one with cash at 19 years old and drove it everywhere, and at parties everyone wanted to be in it because it was so big. My girlfriend at the time and I used to ‘dine’ at Macdonalds with the dome lights on in the rear of the car with the picnic tables down. Fabulous car and quick given the bulk. Had the same 3.8 litre triple carburettor setup (as shown in your vid) as the E-Type sports car.

[@DetailDane]

Love this Story 👍🔥

[@OrnumCR]

@@DetailDane….well after watching your video, I realised how much I miss my cars now. My car was, like this one. Old English White but I had red leather trim. I used to spend hours making that car gleam. That white paint used to come up nicely. Mine was September’63 build and I believe the one you detailed was a 1962 car as it had the narrow brake pedal for the DG automatic. This bought back some wonderful memories. My other car was green on green, it was a 1964 car with the 4.2 litre engine. My mate had a very late 1970 420G, and we used to compare our cars. Great vid. Enjoyed seeing that car lovely and clean again. Thank you!

[@user-wq1cf7ms5r]

Gives me pure joy to see a classic brought back to life. Much better than the junk of today

[@ScrappersDetailing]

That thing looked phenomenal at the end!

[@DetailDane]

I Appreciate It! 🙏 I Was Surprised How Nice it Came Out! 🚘💕

[@williamgoddard6126]

I owned a Mark 10 in the 70s that had belonged to Howard Hughes. It was in need of some. Attention when I got it, but local Jag mechanic helped me polish it up. This was a wonderful car, years ahead of anything else at the time, and since it had the XK engine, cruised effortlessly on the highway. The interior was so ush, they were called the poor man's Rolls Royce. I sd the car to a collector when I went back to college, and sadly it burned up in a horrific fire at a European garage a couple years later. 😳

[@user-zg1dq1hq3d]

This model Jaguar sedan saved my life and a friends life too. A long time ago we were driving late at night in the Australian bush. Miles from any where we hit a kangaroo at a 110 miles an hour.Long story short the impact buckled the front sub frame and because the car was built like a bank vault we came to no harm other than our wallets taking a finacial hit. Good cars...

[@rapido2963]

Hi from the UK! A friend of mine bought one of these in the late 1960’s for £300. It was absolutely immaculate in a golden sand colour. At that time they were so thirsty on petrol that sellers couldn’t get a high price for them and took any offer.

[@john0597]

Hi there I'm John from England you've done a great job on that jaggu what are lovely car

[@neilmustow368]

Great watch stunning looking this MK 10 Jag👌👌👌👌

[@rwest1818]

There can't be many barns left now! lol

[@davidboen6189]

What an amazing transformation from what it was to the finish! Quite mesmerizing to watch from beginning to end. Thank you for making the video!

[@leejam5268]

The chrome on these cars are amazing. Ive seen rusty bodied ones and the chrome still looks new

[@SuperEjep]

It's a MK10, later known as the 420G, not an X type

[@chrischallis4240]

..love watching these barn find cars getting restored to presentable condition...thanks..

[@michaelhoff1464]

Good job on cleaning this original Jaguar MK 10 , a great British iconic from the 1960s ❤😂

[@slipsstreams]

Hell yeah!!! Awesome video keep it coming!

[@DetailDane]

Appreciate You! 🙏

[@johncook3817]

That's a great find! My first car was a mk10 jag like that. We lived in Devon at the time and the old tank was as wide some of the roads! I still have the bonnet maskot and really regret getting rid of it!😊

[@goodevins9408]

Wow came up amazing! Thanks for creating the content 🎉

[@bradfordbarrettluckotheIrish]

Outstanding job!

[@davidmckinney6577]

Thats beautiful 😍 you did the best job 👏 🙌 👍 ❤️

[@MegaRetr]

Awesome Jag😊 love it😊

[@caractax.3110]

What a beautiful treasure 👏🥰💕

[@jamescourt4703]

Lovely old jag. Ive got a white 420G proper old school motor. They drink fuel like its going out of fashion, but the grin factor driving it outways the cost of running it.

[@kevinsenior8155]

What a great car. Yes, its an early to mid 1960's Mk 10, not an X Type, and not the later 420G (that had chrome trim down the sides). It looks in really good shape, and BTW, that toolbox alone is worth over $500. You have quite a rare car there. Great job.

[@zingo2664]

beautiful job boyz !!! 10/10 love jags ( x type /420g/ s type )

[@georgeedwards1994]

Hi great video, what did you use on the chrome? It came up really well and removed a lot of the corrosion

[@thomaspenman4101]

Great what a transformation buddy

[@stevepringle2295]

Absolutely stunning. It will sell now,

Tanks for good video❤

[@thomaspenman4101]

[@hideouslyugly]

That's a lovely old Jaguar. These beasts weighed two tons. Refined, smooth and classy. They'll have no problem selling that now.

[@brettjones5041]

They Are a Classy Jag top job

[@alantraish3368]

In the UK cars like these get banger raced. Keep this beautiful car safe there. Fantastic clean up

[@jefferywylie4456]

Possible this MK 10 was sold or serviced at my father’s BMC Jaguar dealership in Grand Rapids. These are great cars and especially beautiful with factory wire wheels. I still have a 86 MK 3 XJ6. Jaguars up to the 80’s were unbeatable if you enjoy driving.

[@stevesankey6339]

🇬🇧 Here in the UK, that car is one of the best Jaguar mk 10 that we made, he would of had people beating his door down to buy it, but good luck with the sale, 😊

[@mrdiplomat9018]

The original lacquer paint on these Jags was nice‼️✅

[@mickbloss996]

420G at the time the largest saloon car ever made in the uk

[@maxtoledano9168]

Pure Cosmetic... good job

[@ClotEastwood]

Back to showroom in 16 minutes . . .. still needs a little TLC . .. but holy cow what an improvement. . .. . . .. great vid

[@Leo-DaGreek]

Very Nice👍. But one thing you forgot,you didn’t pull the hub caps off?😂

[@colinl9018]

Nice clean up job on the jag young fella.Will they get it running? Will be a beast when running and worth the $10,000 they are asking. Those 3.8's had a problem with head gaskets?... (ps. v8 chevy's drop straight in 😂)

[@anwarlatip7067]

Fantastic job. Fan Malaysia

[@thomaspenman4101]

Walnut dashboard cool

[@ih9368]

Dose it actually run ???

[@martinogold]

Classy car 🐆

[@Musclecar1972]

You need to invest in a winch, HARBOR FREIGHT! 👍 I think Jaguar always built beautifully styled vehicles, especially the XK E, but the Lucas ignition systems were a definite problem at least here, they didn’t like to start in damp weather.

[@christianmichael1970]

Looked at the FB link. You have it as a X-Type lmao. You might want to change that to Jaguar MK10 if you really want to get close to the asking price. A little accuracy goes a long way.

[@stephenhargreaves381]

British bank robbers car . Nice job , well done !

[@GTVAlfaMan]

That Jaguar weighs almost as much as the Cadillac Eldorado in your next video.

[@herreriaspartatijuanatj6476]

Excelente trabajo , saludos desde México

[@thomaspenman4101]

I use brillo pads to remove surface rust works wonders

[@pauljames9393]

My uncle had one from new in the 60s in London, Uk . I believe it may be a 4.2 L block. Great wedding car or school graduation car. Its more of a buisness venture running that in Europe when petrolium is soooo expensive !

[@MrFernandocalvao]

Esse carro é lindo ❤

[@madanto2394]

Absolutely crazy that jaguar has been in a barn my whole lifetime.Bonkers

[@EmmettDoesStuff_YT]

Viewing from 313 motor city Detroit Michigan USA 🇺🇸 .

[@royrodriguez5658]

What did it sell for?

[@RaggedyAtom]

Looks like the FB seller forgot that it was a Mk.10 Jaguar. X-types didn't even exist until 2001. For the Mk.10, later renamed the 420G, it was Britain's top-of-the-range saloon car of the decade, starting from 1961 and ending in 1970 due to Leyland taking over. The only sacrifice that was made was that for most, if not all of these cars were column-shift automatic, but that's just how luxury was back then. There were 3 types of Mk.10 Jaguar that were made in the decade. The first being the 3.8L version (same engine as the iconic E-Type), second being the 420, basically same thing but with a 4.2L XK engine instead and a badge on the boot, and the gargantuan 420G, much larger and wider than the other two, with the same 4.2L XK, but with 3 SU carburettors, again but with a 420G badge on the boot. Mid-to-late 1965 Mk.10 Jaguars had additional chrome trimming along the side with side markers in order to make it road legal.

[@stephenroots4327]

The Daimler version is the twin to this imo!

[@keithier1958]

What is something like this wroth???

[@MrBurtonbradstock]

This model was too big & thirsty for UK roads. A rare sight now but in my opinion I think its come of age & looks great especially the interior

[@michaeltutty1540]

Absolutely beautiful car. Sir William knew his cars and his market. A shame to see that lively Connelly Leather looking so poorly. As an aside, Connelly always used hides from Belgium because barbed wire is illegal there. Fewer scars in the skin. That Wilton carpet is still being woven, but it is anything but budget friendly. It appears the headlining may be West of England cloth as was optional on concurrent Rolls-Royce models.

[@bjoernaltmann]

An icon conversion (Jonathan Ward) could be interesting

[@roccosophie6498]

The original Jaguar XJ is probably the most well designed car ever made. No other car can tops it's magnificent looks and logical design.

[@ttersu]

It's not a XJ, it's a MK10 :)

[@roccosophie6498]

@@ttersu No, I'm talking about the original XJ. The new one looks like a big "dump," of waste. :)

[@johncalberg1573]

gooooood jooob!

[@KenthGustafsson300]

when you high presure washing you even press dirtwater in betwen the trims and rubber listts.

[@user-gf4ud9mf7m]

It’s a Mark 10 I grew up driving the same car , my father taught me to drive in this car at the age of 11 years

[@mtpeterteacher755]

You get an up vote just for the jingle at 14.28!!

[@kennethtalbott2233]

that X type ain't an X type mate. it's a MK10, (MKX) can you do mine?

[@TomHamilton54]

Did you hear the man? You did a good job! I would say great.

[@dariuszt2364]

You could spray some varnish on these chips ;)

[@oieugeniosilva3827]

Que espetáculo de carro

[@ianallen2]

That is a Jag MK10 / 420G, not an X type. It was the biggest car built in UK but never took on as much as all other Jags because it was a bane on the Jaguar company. I have always wanted one since the 1960's and my stepfather said I had better start saving now (that was back in 1973) if I wanted to buy one. I have had many cars but the Jag MK10 was never one of them.

[@markauckland666]

im guessing the X type is what America called the Mk 10
