1972 Jaguar XJ6 Series 1, 1949 Jaguar Mk5, 1965 Brabham BT15, 1960 Lotus 18, 1929 Oldsmobile

I was going to look at a series 1 that has been on the market for some time that I thought was good value. To my surprise I discovered some very interesting other vehicles #thecollectableauctionhouse

My husband was out in our MkV today. It was a wedding car with a fresh pink slip when we bought it. Put it up on the hoist when we first got it home & found so many dangerous defects my husband spent months getting it to a stage where he felt safe driving it. Its a beautiful looking car & gets along very well for a big heavy 74 year old car.

Thanks for todays video. Lovely old series 1.

Wow, what a garage!

[@nigelbond4056]

Regrettably, I’ve just had to sell my Series 1 4.2, gutted to say goodbye to it after so many years but it’s always wonderful to see a similar car. My absolute favourite model 👏

Happy New Year to you and wifey Brett I was half convinced you were going to buy the Jag you the man to bring it up to snuff look forward to your next video as always best wishes Andy Allen.

Nice one Brett ... The S1 is sitting a bit low up front, the rear boot underside seems to not be correct, the weld points should be towards the boot floor, may be a panel patch, Shame on the oil seal leak, needs TLC and it's a stunner .

[@terrywrist8448]

always liked and prefer the front dash lay out on the series 1 then series 2 & 3

Lot of car for not a lot of money. I had made an offer on this a lot earlier, unseen. Appreciate your insight. Still a good car and not far off the right price. (In my opinion. )

Happy New Year. It's weird how it started without a visible choke. The chrome door strips are American car spec. The low front I think is a broken front coil spring. The lower rear panel looked like it had been riveted on. The front nearside tyre was bald. The brake fluid green colour reminded me of the old Girling green fluid. (It could be original and therefore not safe). You are right it probably needs quite a bit of work to make it usable again. Take care.

I think $8k pretty cheap for that. While watching I was thinking min. $12k. Had way more than $8k spent. I guess thought of engine out to fix oil leak was straw that broke camels back for previous owner. I thought she was a bit sagged at the front???? Anyway interesting exercise thanks Brett. .

Nice series 1 but I suspect it would take a lot to make it right.

[@gertstuve3933]

I have a set of rhd luggage trays for under the dash….

[@mick0846]

My grandad had a pink series 1 with a pink interior much darker pink than that, and he said that was Heather? Like a Barbie car 😂 stunning!.. it was a uk car, so it will be long gone now 😢it says a lot when even in your climate, they rust. I'm definitely a jag man though xj especially

[@peterbailey4624]

THE FRONT 1/4 WINDOWS OF THE 1949 WERE NOT CURVED AT THE FRONT suggest later model or dood frames changed

Happy new year

[@NZBRG1]

Happy New Year Brett

[@bigfella6629]

I was thinking a engine out for that oil leak.

[@johnmoruzzi7236]

Hate the leaper on the Series 1 !

[@jeffsmith4594]

What’s happening with the 75 rover ? You have some very nice jags

[@darrenbyrne4622]
