Hey Mike, my vote is a classic Jag colour from the 60s-70s called, "Opalescent Silver Blue." It would look fantastic with the interior. The colour code manufacturers are: Dupont 8316L, PPG 12594 (1997), Ditzler 12594 (1997), Glasurit (BASF) JAG-7410S.
Mikey Mikey, if you had removed the grommet from the pillar, there's the plug that you unplug to remove the door. The reason why you have a gap between the liner and the bumper is that the bumper is missing that piece that attaches the liner to the bumper
The jaguar is coming along great Mike. The new parts are giving it a second chance to get it back to its former glory. I vote for the colour to be kept original.
When I had my air conditioning repaired, the shop failed to put the exterior drain in the exterior. On a long road trip, the passenger side was flooded with water, like your car. After I removed the water, I kept the carpet up high, and installed a house fan in the car to dry it out. It will take forever letting it dry without a lot of air circulation, and may never properly dry, leading to mould and mildew.
Really great vlog . The joy of doing work on ones vehicle is never easy. I really enjoy your content. I think your Jaguar is similar to the Lincoln LS, maybe they share some body parts.
Mike, I saw that thumbnail, and i just had to click…because it looks like you’re about ready to replace the jag’s headlight bulbs…😂😂😂 Also…Lola wants to bathe in that pond the jag’s got goin’ on…😂😂😂
Mikey with the Mariah Carey Xmas smile @13:31!! lmao As for color, i vote stock color…cheaper and engine bay color wont stand out. Also, we need a RUclips Live broadcast!
GREAT video, Mike! The car looks good! I understand your frustration. I usually HATE every car I work on! The older I get, the less my patience! The transmission jack was an awesome idea for the doors!
Morning/afternoon Mike! Love the Jag-u-ar! I would not want to be in your shoes fixin' it though! Is there any way to glue that piece of the grill to the bumper? Otherwise you're going to have a heck of a rattle.
Looking at it from the front, the dark blue is a nice contrast to the grey color. You could go for a two-tone paintjob - Maybach-style 😉👌 Oh yeah, that guy at the junkyard definitely had dinner on your 40 bucks
Mike, sorry to hear that you got frustrated with the door thing, but you did a great job on the fender. Hopefully this could taken away your frustration ! Enjoy very much watching your videos .... Good Luck !
I had on late facilift 07 in indigo blue and it was a stunning colour for it and now I have another 07 diesel in British racing green which I also think it looks stunning on this car but I'd personally stick with the original colour
wow, you got the energy.. would take me 2years to pull out a interior and put i back again. If i had a shop/garage i had to have a dude doing that s... 🙂
So good to see you Mike! Changing doors is not a fun job…did it on our Saab and it was brutal the whole way. Plus aligning to the body 😅 you have the patience of a saint. Cheers!
That was a lot of work Mike, but it looks fantastic. Can’t wait until you get it painted, I think that dark blue would look great on it, but it would be easier to go back with the color it came from the factory with….
Mike, I love your ducks commentary. He quacks so much because he is telling you that you're not doing it right. Fitting a luxury Jag into a Mondeo shell. Of cause it's difficult. Same when Mercedes tried to fit a GL class into a Grand Cherokee. 8 hours just to replace the alternator. The S-Type is my fav out of all the Mondeo class Jaguars. But still would take a XJ or Sovereign any day.
Great work!👍 the blue is much nicer than this mouse grey.. I think it was called Pacific Blue. And there was another shade of blue: Sapphire Blue. Also nice.
Another great video! I find your videos very detailed and you always do repairs yourself which makes your videos so much more believable than other channels. Just my opinion, Please keep up the great work
Mike you are man among men, you are not afraid to take on the big jobs and you always get the job done and it always looks better than when you start. As you say leave it better than you find it and you certainly did that for that Jaguar. I love these cars but I'm not as good of a mechanic as you are and I'm not rich so I couldn't pay someone a lot of money to fix it so I have to live without one. But I can watch my buddy, good ol' Monkey Wrench Mike maybe you've have heard of him. He'll show you why you don't want to own one. Love your video's they are the best, even the one's with Randy. Nice job on the Jag, you are indeed saving her from the junk yard. I really like the navy blue that is on the new bumper but it would be cheaper and easier to paint it back to the original color, which I guess is that darker gray color. I'm over silver cars so anything but that but your choice. 😀✌❤
To keep my cars dry , I have small dehumidifier as moisture leakage though poorly fitting trim clips , still love your videos , either solos or with AAR
This was a great video i enjoyed this alot and the jaguar has came along way and i think either a get the car painted grey like it is or get it painted blue like the bumper and fender is that blue does look pretty good. Anyway thanks for sharing mike keep up the great work much love to ya have a good one take care god bless and been loving seeing the jag come along cant wait to see her finished. And see theon the next one mike catch ya later
Great job I would say the original color of the car would be the way to go!!! Great job great getting it done and I'm sure they will be very happy with it. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁❤️😁❤️
I say brittish racing green if you want to get a little crazy, or just one of those 2 stock colors if you want to play it safe. Hopefully, we see Rocki on video going to Maaco soon cant wait.
Don’t forget to transfer the chrome strip at the window edge on the old door to the new door
I saw that aswell
That jaguar has come a long way with all the work you've done..Great job Mike

Love the Blue of the new Bumper and Fender goes perfect with light gray interior
Mikey Mikey, if you had removed the grommet from the pillar, there's the plug that you unplug to remove the door. The reason why you have a gap between the liner and the bumper is that the bumper is missing that piece that attaches the liner to the bumper
Amazing work! Original color is the way to go...
Beautiful in blue
Original color is very good
Monkey Mike, I just want you to know that I have always given you a thumbs up every time I watch your videos. You make me smile each time.
Me too! I usually hit the like button before I start the video! 😂😂
Love to watch his Repair / Restore videos .... as always !
Deep blue suits this Jag perfectly.
Hats off to you Mike. Nice work!
Nice work MIKE
Keep same color cost more to change color.😊😊
I’d just paint it the same current color. Keep it simple , so door jambs match.
We don't mind the quacking, so Lola can be outside next time!
The original colour for the Jag is good
The jaguar is coming along great Mike. The new parts are giving it a second chance to get it back to its former glory. I vote for the colour to be kept original.
Mike you have so much patience.. Still smiling through it all

You call her Rocky but your the boss, Mike

Thanks 👍
They do not share body parts even though they are platform siblings.
Great work mike😂
... undoubtedly one of the most beautiful cars in her class
Mike, I saw that thumbnail, and i just had to click…because it looks like you’re about ready to replace the jag’s headlight bulbs…😂😂😂
Also…Lola wants to bathe in that pond the jag’s got goin’ on…😂😂😂
Haha!!
I would love to see this car an elegant dark green , or black . Either would be very classy on this car !
Mikey with the Mariah Carey Xmas smile @13:31!! lmao
As for color, i vote stock color…cheaper and engine bay color wont stand out.

Original blue!
Mike the jaguar looks amazing good job 👏 can't wait to c it painted 😀
Jaguar Green is what they known for Enjoy your content Hi from South Africa
Thanks!!
GREAT video, Mike! The car looks good! I understand your frustration. I usually HATE every car I work on! The older I get, the less my patience! The transmission jack was an awesome idea for the doors!
You to swap the belt molding on the door you replace from that black to the chrome.
There were so many, "That's what she said!" options in this video that I couldn't pick a favorite.
Haha!
Mike don't let your duck see all that water he will think you made him a indoor pool😂
Mike
Hello from England.
I think you should try your hand at pdr
Lots of the dents in your fleet might be easier to remove than you think.
Great vid

II've always had luck withh silver cars. They don't look too bad when they're dirtY and fabulos when they're polished.

We bought a new Jag EPace S in 2019, its been a pleasure to own.
The blue she has is beautiful and unique.
So good to see you Mike! Changing doors is not a fun job…did it on our Saab and it was brutal the whole way. Plus aligning to the body 😅 you have the patience of a saint. Cheers!

gray look good
Love the Jag, great work on it. I love the OEM color.
I'd stay with the original, but i really like the blue. Great video!
Great job Mike your perseverance is paying off 🏴👍🏻
I think that blue on the new front bumper would look good as an all over color for that car!! Great video, keep it up!
Good work Mike, each car is unique
I like the darker blue on the bumper.
Love the progress on the Jag Mike! Keep it up!
For that water infiltration drill some holes in the floor .And the color champagne. Love ur channel good job😮
I love love love the bumper color blue is the way to go or the same color will be cheaper cause of the door jams etc.
You are really doing a awesome job with these cars. I'm not saying this to butter you up. Don't stop doing what you do.
Great work!👍 the blue is much nicer than this mouse grey.. I think it was called Pacific Blue. And there was another shade of blue: Sapphire Blue. Also nice.
looks good
Don't do a full color change because to do it properly would be expensive.. It would end up costing more than the car is worth.
Who said this clunker needs a proper paint job?
It's going to Maaco I'm sure.
The blue on the new bumper and fender is a nice color it would great that color
Mike... did you see where Mortske repair bought a truck from copart OKC that was still on the hot sheet, and ended up in jail?
Nope!! I’ll have to find it!
I like that blue and gray goes nicely with blue
Great video car is looking good. Keep up the great work and videos. Can't wait till it gets painted
If you can get a fan to blow on that carpet, it will dry up a lot faster.
Blue looks good for me
Blue will be perfect
Another great video! I find your videos very detailed and you always do repairs yourself which makes your videos so much more believable than other channels. Just my opinion, Please keep up the great work
Great job mike, paint the original colour is cheaper and not worth changing color
I think a good shade of gloss black would look incredible on it
I really like that blue color! That’s my vote!
MIKE YOUR THE MAN WITH THE PLAN.

Great video my friend! Thank you for what you do. 😁
I know it's Aggravating but you have done an Amazing Job 👍
I'm a sucker for dark blue. The new fender and bumper look great against the gray interior.
❤ nice video and funny
Monkey Wrench Mike is a natural when it comes to fixing these cars. Great job Mike
Good work Mike, each car is unique.Blue will be perfect
Blue would look great 👍
Song title count:
1: Solid As A Rock
Only 1? Needs more!
I love the blue.
This was a great video i enjoyed this alot and the jaguar has came along way and i think either a get the car painted grey like it is or get it painted blue like the bumper and fender is that blue does look pretty good.

Great job I would say the original color of the car would be the way to go!!!
Great job great getting it done and I'm sure they will be very happy with it.
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁❤️😁❤️
Looking good , blue is best
Paint it Gray Mike it will sparkle like new money.
Your friend is going to be so excited to see it. I would have pulled my hair out by now. The silver color is so pretty
Good job Mike 😎😎👍👍
Nice Jag. Deep blue .
I say brittish racing green if you want to get a little crazy, or just one of those 2 stock colors if you want to play it safe. Hopefully, we see Rocki on video going to Maaco soon cant wait.
Meaby nice good old brittish racing green for the Jaaaaag.
Soooo much better 💪
As a Brit, I say go for a British Racing Green wrap and a set of Anthracite alloys. Then a set of Eibach springs, car sorted.
Love my 07 S-Type Jag but my nickname for it is Rosemary’s Jag.🤣🤣🤣
Oh yeah go with the original color. Your friend and her family remembers it that way so it’ll mean more to them all original like.🫠
Take the Jaguar to tom and your mom if it's road ready. Let tom decide. He will love to see that car. Good job Mike .
good job mike love it
Looking good Mike! You know it's an onion as soon as you start peeling things back, HAH!
I sure hope you paint it that blue. That would look rich. 🙏🙃🤪
Og blue for sure
It's the car business. Nothing is ever easy 😅😂😅
Blue for Rocky🥊
