I purchased this car for my wife as many believe that the E-Type is the sexiest and most stylish of sports car. During our trips to Las Vegas and San Francisco we always received waves and complements from other drivers.
The ignition has been upgraded to an electronic ignition system, and the rear end ratio increased 1:1.415 resulting in an average fuel economy on our last Las Vegas trip of approximately 22 MPG with careful driving. (When the car is travelling at 60 MPH the speedo is reading 45 MPH).
The paint appears to be original with some crazing on the hood (see photo). The car appears to be rust free and is a Californian car. There are some chips to the paint, where other car doors have hit the sides of the Jaguar and there is a shallow curved dent on the top of the drivers side of the hood. (see phptos) The upoholstry is in good condition except fot the top of the rear seats under the rear window, where there are some cracks from exposure to the sun through the rear window. (see photo).
The car has been stored in our garage over the past few years as we are renovating a historic building which is consuming all of our spare time and is now running over our original renovation budget, this being the reason for this listing. When driving the car out of the garage to photograph it, I found that the brakes need urgent attention. (probably new O-rings, seals and brake fluid)
This is a sound rust free car that woild be Ideal for restoration
NOTE: We are out ot town on vacation this week and will not be returning until September 1, and will not have access to E-mail.
