The SS 1 offered here was completely restored over a period of several years, at a documented cost of well over $350,000 AUD. With the goal of making a superb road performer, the engine was fitted with a 3½-Litre crank, new connecting rods, and pistons, boosting the displacement nearer to 3-liters, accompanied by new sand-cast carburetors with Teflon-coated slides and larger jets to accommodate the increased displacement. The result of the driveline was also rebuilt and adjusted for touring, and new knock-offs fitted to the chrome wire wheels.
Driven fewer than 1,300 miles since restoration, the SS 1 has participated three times in the Victorian Jaguar Concours d’Elegance (2007, 2009, 2010) and thrice in the Australian Jaguar National Rally (2008, 2010, 2015). Outright winner of the Concours d’Elegance at the 39th Rally, it was, according to the owner, judged 100% authentic by the Australian Council of Jaguar Clubs. Further it was described in the international edition of E-Type Magazine as “a magnificent 1934 SS 1 2-door.” It remains in superb overall condition and is accompanied by a tonneau cover and side curtains, as well as manuals, wheel and hand tools, tire pump, lubrication chart, and an accounting of the restoration work.
