Ray Archibald's XK120 and MK2 Jaguars

[OctaneSimon]

Great thread. Thanks for saving AQ5800. Fabulous car.

I own a Pearl Grey Jaguar Mark I - originally delivered with a 2.4 engine to Archibald’s Garage, Christchurch, New Zealand, ostensibly ordered for Dr Philip Melville-Heath. However, this car arrived on 27 March 1958 and was used by Archibald for 17 months until 2 September 1959, when it was finally registered AL 6200 to Dr Melville-Heath.

Does anyone have pictures of Ray's Mark I cars? (I believe he had two, the second one likely a 1959 car arriving right when my car was finally registered).

I'm also looking for the original NZ plates for the car (or reproductions) AL 6200. Does anyone know where to get 1958 type NZ plates made up?

My car is now looked after by CKL and I am planning to race some select races in Europe in 2021.
All best, Simon
