Sellers description:
Well preserved, original example of the very desirable 1969 Jaguar XKE Series II Coupe showing 51,725 miles offered by Gas Monkey Garage! I'm offering this very solid and honest XKE just as we found it so you can appreciate the incredible condition it's in. It was owned by a very enthusiastic admirer of the XKE for most of its life. He was able to enjoy and maintain it as it should have been until he was no longer able to enjoy driving it anymore. At that point he focused on maintaining and preserving it in an indoor building and this preserved the floors and tub from the fate of most E-Types (rust) and the result is this extremely well preserved, but not restored XKE Coupe. Please see all pics (especially the spare tire tub!) The doors and hinges are extremely solid and tight.The engine came to life immediately with a fresh battery and fuel and this E-Type was driven on the trailer. This 1969 Jaguar XKE runs and drives, however it has been stored for nearly 15 years and wasn't started or driven for quite some time, therefore it will need to be completely serviced before attempting to drive it for extended periods to insure safety and reliability. Due to our filming schedule we will not be able to service this XKE(sold as is/where is).The exterior is in amazing condition with a glossy finish appearing to have been re-sprayed at some time in the past with very small nicks and scratches with one small dent on the hood from the underside and some "crazing "of the paint on the hood as well. All of the chrome bumpers and trim are present and in good condition showing some minor pitting and discoloration (not visible in a photo).The interior is also in incredible condition with good , solid carpet (again, see all pics!). The dash is complete and clean. The seats are complete and operational with clean, solid upholstery. All door panels, interior panels and the rear luggage compartment are in phenomenal condition as well as the headliner. The engine compartment appears original and unmolested having been maintained throughout the years. Underside pics reveal a very solid tub and mechanical components that are unmolested with minimal rust present.This rare 1969 Jaguar XKE will be seen on the hit show Fast N Loud and the winning bidder may have the option of taking delivery here at the shop or we'll help with shipping logistics. Title in hand! (Please note: the title states rebuilt salvage as it was stolen from the previous owner and when recovered he bought it back from the Insurance company 20+ years ago!) If you're looking for a good, solid example of the iconic 1969 Jaguar XKE Coupe in great condition you won't find a better example that's priced to sell!
