According to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust, chassis 49026 was completed on December 24, 1937, finished in black paint with gray trim. Retailed through Henley's Limited of London, the car passed into unknown ownership, though it was later registered as "REL 525." Exported to the US by the early 1960s, Robert Wood of Allentown, Pennsylvania, purchased the SS 100 from one of his fellow students at Cornell University. Following his graduation, Mr. Wood reportedly restored the Jaguar and retained it for approximately 30 years.

In the late 1990s, the SS 100 was sold to Gary Ford, who undertook some cosmetic refurbishment and then presented the car at the 2002 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance, winning First in Class. Acquired a couple of years later by well-known British car expert Brian Classic, the Jaguar was sold in 2004 to John Hewitt Murphy of Santa Fe. Mr. Murphy undertook further restoration measures, commissioning a reupholstering of the seats and door panels, and a complete detailing of the engine compartment. This work contributed to further accolades at regional events, including class wins at the 2005 Radnor Hunt Concours d'Elegance and the 2010 Santa Fe Concorso, and Prewar Class Champion at the 2007 JCNA National Concours. In 2012, the Jaguar was sold to a discerning private collector, and he exhibited the car at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance® in August 2015, winning First in Class.

Finished in dark green with brown leather upholstery, and still presenting beautifully with its Brooklands windscreens and painted wire wheels, this SS 100 is a genuine example of an important prewar Jaguar model. The consignor reports that the car retains its original 2 1/2-litre engine and the sale is accompanied by an original 1937 owner's manual, weather equipment, and a tool kit. One of only 198 built, this beautifully maintained SS 100 2 1/2 Litre is eligible for many of the finest international events, from prestigious concours d'elegance to rallies such as the Mille Miglia and the Colorado Grand. Those with an appreciation of fine prewar automobiles should not miss this rare opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional example of the first great Jaguar sports car.

Car now offered at:

Seller's description:

Hyman, Ltd.

Location: St. Louis, Missouri

Condition: Good

Exterior: Green

Interior: Brown Leather

Fabulously presented in British Racing Green with a saddle leather interior, this SS 100 Jaguar is a gorgeous example of the quintessential pre-war English sports car. Chassis number 49026 is one of just 198 SS 100s built through 1938 and is a superb motorcar in every respect. The accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate shows 49026 was completed on December 24, 1937, and dispatched through Henlys Limited of London – the official SS/Jaguar distributor at the time. The car was originally finished in black with a gray interior, and fitted with the 2 ½-litre six-cylinder engine good for 100 horsepower. The original owner is not known; however, the car came to the United States sometime in the early 1960s, eventually coming into the stewardship of Mr. Robert Wood, a successful businessman and philanthropist from Allentown, Pennsylvania. The SS 100 stayed quietly in Wood's collection for the next three decades. In the late 1990s, it transferred to Gary Ford, who undertook an extensive cosmetic restoration, resulting in a Best in Class at the 2002 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance.

After passing through the hands of respected expert Brian Classic in England, 49026 came into the care of Mr. John H. Murphy of Santa Fe, New Mexico. He took the restoration to an even higher level, to include reupholstering the cockpit in stunning saddle brown leather and extensively detailing the engine and mechanical components. Murphy's efforts were rewarded with class wins at the 2005 Radnor Hunt Concours, the 2010 Santa Fe Concorso, and the Prewar Class Champion award at the 2007 JCNA National Concours. With subsequent owners, it scored 999.8 points at the 2014 Jaguar Club of Houston concours and earned a well-deserved class win at the 2015 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.

In the hands of its most recent custodian, this marvelous SS Jaguar has enjoyed meticulous care and regular enjoyment. It presents in superb condition, with finish quality and detailing befitting a former high-level concours competitor. The paintwork is gorgeous, and it beautifully highlights the exquisite styling. Body-color wheels and black wall tires give it a distinctly sporting and purposeful stance on the road, particularly with the windscreen folded. It retains its numbers-matching inline-six per the Heritage Certificate and has been serviced and dialed-in for road use while in the care of its most recent owner. Some light signs of use are visible on the chassis and mechanical components, which only serve to make the car even more inviting to drive. The sale includes black canvas weather equipment, a partial tool kit, original handbook, and a factory parts book.

The SS 100 is Jaguar's first proper sports car and is also one of the best of the pre-war era. Cherished for their superb road manners and breathtaking style, SS 100s rarely become available on the open market. The sale of 49026 represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a beautiful and proven SS 100 Jaguar suited to continued concours participation yet is also eligible for entry into the world's premier driving events, including the Colorado Grand and Mille Miglia.
