Sellers description:
This XKE spent most of it's life in Nevada. I believe the car to originally have come from Europe as the speedometer is in kilometers vs. miles. The original paint is still on the car what is left of it. Someone made an attempt to start a restoration by stripping the paint off. I have left it in this condition to show that there is no body filler on the car and to show how dry it is. The area where the spare tire goes is like brand new there is no rust at all. Around the bonnet area where it hinges has no rust as well. The footwell on the passenger side does not have to be replaced, but if you were to paint the car it is the time to do it. The car is mostly complete. The only things I see missing are the air canister cleaner, the center console, the tools and the jack. The engine turns freely. As you can see the interior is pretty shot and will need doing. Of course the car will need to be gone through as it hasn't been driven in years. The engine does not match the commission plate, but it is an 1966 E-type engine.

Lot 763
Registration Number: EU Taxes Paid
Chassis Number: 1E10935
Estimate: £22,000 - £28,000

Shipped to Jaguar Cars New York, the first owner on record was Daniel E Fletcher of Sheffield, Pennsylvania.
