Auction description:
Lot 9
1965 Jaguar 'Series I' E-Type Roadster
CHASSIS NO: 1E11439

• Timeless style and design
• Numbers matching example
• Accompanied by Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate
• Beautifully finished in Opalescent Silver Gray
• Full restoration by David Ferguson of Images Autobody

Finished in a lovely Opalescent Silver Gray with a black interior, this 1965 Jaguar E-Type Roadster carries a full restoration by David Ferguson of Images Autobody in Campbell, California, one of the leading specialists in Jaguar restoration. This numbers matching car was fully restored with literally every nut and bolt being removed and restored or replaced. The result is one of the finest examples of the E-Type in existence. The restoration used a full rotisserie and the bonnet was completely disassembled and bead blasted. All metal prep work and finishing were performed to the highest standards with all panels refitted to exact factory specifications. The result is that all body seams are in perfect alignment and the finish is impeccable. All chrome on the E-Type was then triple-plated for a perfect shine and durable finish. Jaguar’s magnificent 4.2-litre inline six is a masterpiece of engineering as proven by the engine bay on this example. The engine was completely rebuilt using new pistons, rings, valves, chains, bearings, oil pump, seals and gaskets. The radiator, fuel pump, starter, and alternator were also restored to new. The carburetors were completely rebuilt, and all hydraulics were brass sleeved for reliability. The transmission was also rebuilt with a new clutch installed, along with the rear axle and all suspension components rebuilt as new with cadmium plating. A new cloth braided wiring harness was fitted as new. The brakes were rebuilt with new rotors and wheel bearings. The result of all this craftsmanship is an engine bay and chassis that is concours show ready and performs as well as it looks. The interior was not overlooked as all upholstery was replaced in fine black leather and all carpeting was replaced as well. A new dash panel was installed, and all the weather stripping was replaced, with both doors also receiving new glass.

Jaguar’s perfect execution of the Grand Touring experience is nicely displayed in the steering wheel that was refinished to factory specifications. Other items that received attention were complete body sound proofing and a new stainless-steel exhaust system. This Jaguar rides on new Dayton wire rims with knockoffs and new tires. The original tool kit and jack are included in the sale. This Jaguar also has its Heritage Certificate and made its show debut at “The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering" in 2017. It has been driven just 2,000 miles since and presents today just as it did when the restoration was completed.

The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
