Description of 1966 Jaguar E-Type leather seats

This a completely restored vehicle, 1966 Jaguar series one 4.2 litre XKE Roadster, date of manufacture Dec. 6th, 1965owned for 27 years, original mileage is 62,487, 1,020 miles on rebuilt engine,(stock, 9 to 1 compression). all numbers match on this XKE, Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate # 44876.
Always garaged, rust was never a concern with this Jaguar. Time to sell due to age and health.
I wanted to cast a race look of the famous "D" type Jaguar race caron this XKE, rather than a stock appearance, while keeping the engine stock. Here is what was done,Bumpers were removed, the originals have been re chromed and are included in this sale,Side Stainless steel exhaust and SS header replaced the stock rear exhaust, the stock is included in sale,Front directional lights are now under the glass of the head light like the "D" type, Wire wheelshave been replaced with the"D" type Dunlap race wheels, with tri bar knock offs (5), a cost of $3,500.Removal ofthe front grille motif bar, also included in sale.Removal of the heater box, since I only drove this XKE in warm weather, radio andradio console ( it is newlyupholstered),also have been merely removed, several period radios are included in sale.
Here are a few ofthe things that have been restored or replace with new parts,all brake calipers havebeenS.S. lined, provided by White Post Restoration,all interior in replaced by original quality provided by GW Bartlett Co.,tires are Michelin P 215/60R15,new wind shield glass,paint is Dupont Chroma System G9900S, Super Jet Black,gauges rebuilt by Nisonger Instruments
There are many boxes of parts, California car cover, work shop and drivers manuals, that are included, oil and filter service wasjust done lastmonth.* There is a fine crack 1" in the paint about the wheel well on the drivers rear side, and another 1/2 fine crack on the bonnet near the firewall. The changes made in the body appearance to give this XKE a "D" type race look was undertaken, so that it could be put back to the original look with very littleeffort and with no body modifications needed.If you have any questions, just email me. Thanks Gentlemen, for viewing my XKE.
