Description of 1967 Jaguar E-Type

You are a viewing a highly original and interesting late Series One Jaguar E-type Fixed Head Coupe with mostly original paint and all original interior. Rarely are these cars discovered in this well-preserved untouched state. The car is completely rust free and very straight highly original with nice fitting panels still in it's original first paint. There has been some paint touch up work at some point to the nose tail and rear hatch lid area as seen by the photos. This car is a full matching numbers very late production Series One Coupe only about 75 units from the end of the production run. It is an original triple carburetor toggle switch open headlight car. The car is very complete except for the factory air cleaner setup and the RH windshield post finisher. Included is the factory jack in the bag. The undercarriage is extremely nice and solid as one would expect from a low-mileage CA / TX car.This car was sold new in San Francisco CA to US Naval personnel and remained there for the next three years. There is a BMC service sticker on the driver's B-post door jamb verifying a service around 12000 miles. It appears that in 1970 the car was relocated to Dallas Texas to a naval air base. The last registration date was on it's Texas plates in 1979. It eventually made it's way back to California at some point in it's life. This car has a known history for it's early life. The speedometer reads 17724 miles. Possibly close to actual miles but definitely not 117724...The car's interior is totally original but could use some restoration work to the seats and console dash top pad headliner and front carpets.The original paint appears very genuine with an authentic look that only an original car could have. The original lacquer paint looks OK in most areas especially on the sides. Some fine checking has been noted on the top portion of the car that faces the sun and has clearly dulled off.There is some minor repairable damage to the RH sill area (photo). The car has some usual scrapes dings chips and dents from a lifetime of use but all repairable and "improvable". Some of the chrome work is very decent some of it is average but all original. Some of the original rubber is nice and usable some other items are hard. The car still has all of it's original Triplex glass in good order.The matching numbers engine has just been recently overhauled including the rebuilt original cylinder head new head gasket new rod bearings (std) honed cylinder bores with new standard piston rings fitted. The engine is remarkably original and low mileage without a step on the bore. The braking system has been completely rebuilt including the front and rear calipers sleeved in stainless steel new kits fitted. A new master cylinder new brake power booster servo and all new rubber flexy hoses have been fitted. The gas tank has been completely boiled out / cleaned and repainted a new fuel pump has been fitted and the rest of the fuel system has been overhauled. The radiator has been rodded out and painted all new cooling hoses have been renewed and the car has received a full ignition tune up. A complete new exhaust system has been fitted along with new mounts. Approximately $9000 (with documentation) was just spent on the previous mentioned work to be properly completed. The car still has the original Lucas spark plug ends and distributor cap pair of Lucas headlights BMC factory seatbelts etc. all testament to the car's originality and low mileage. This car is inexcellentrunning and driving condition with a very nice smooth shifting gearbox. The engine has perfect oil pressure no smoke or unfamiliar noises and runs very strong and smooth as a result of its re-commissioning.This honest original car has never been apart and can be placed back into service as is. It is also an excellent candidate for a carefulcosmeticpreservation restoration. This work would entail detailing some existing items restoring some other items cosmetically. The end result would be a highly original honest and totally useable E-type.Cars of this nature are becoming more and more desirable (and irreplaceable) to collectors and to the market at large and are definitely more interesting than their fully restored counterparts. Their current condition chronicles the story of their life from day one. $59750
