Default Yvonne De Carlo had a Mk10

My brother is visiting this week, and as brothers will do, told me stuff. He suggested to me that Lily Munster had a Mk10. I looked it up and found some pics of it here- https://munster-koach-korner.freefor...-barris-kustom . Apparently it was her personal car and was never on the show. Does anyone have any more recent info on this car than this site in 2015? More interestingly, does anyone here have that car?

Somebody has it??? WOW! Been wondering about that car for years & couldn't find much, but that was a while ago. Wish they'd come here & post pics of the resto.
Funny enough, I was just gonna post about this car yesterday but got sidetracked. I found a pic of her w/a Mk IX I think it was.
Miss DeCarlo was a freaky chick. And apparently a big Jaguar fan. Perfect!

@S-Type Owner Very cool, thanks! Looks like some heartless B@$T@RD removed all traces of its Munster-ness.
That really pisses me off. I'd still buy it in a hot second if I could and re-Munster-ize it. minus the lame hubcaps Barris designed.

Thanks! That seems to be a current listing but the site is designed to be hard to use. Personally, Id like the correct motor, and to see how or if the holes in the body from the additions were repaired.

Right, would love to strip that car down and see what's what. Also, I assume, or guess it was originally black as well.

This is the one I found the day before you made this thread. sTrAnGe


Yet another one. Says circa 1940. Was thinking is was an early Mk ragtop, but not sure if Jaguar made them yet.

That is definitely a MK7 from the early fifties. note the very small taillights.
I drove mk7s for 16 years. 1963 to 1979.

Very cool. Thanks for the correction. Gotta learn my early Mks. I like the more minimalist grill on this one as opposed to the Mk IX.

David
The other big giveaway is the front windscreen which is two separate flat panels with a joiner covered by a chrome strip.
The MK8 and MK9 had single piece windscreens without the centre chrome strip.
