Default Whitworth and British Standard tools

As I’m not very familiar with vintage or veteran Jaguars, I don’t know if the older models used Whitworth and British Standard fasteners.
I have a fairly large collection of hand tools from my British motor bike days that I no longer need so determining application to vintage Jaguars prior to posting in the forum marketplace. Bikes are gone and all current cars are metric of course.
Thanks in advance.

Cars from the 60s were mainly BS although some of the nuts were BA on the SU carburettors. I don't think there are any Whitworth fasteners on by '69 E Type.
