Sellers description:
XKE Jaguar 1970 coupe - $25000.
Only 39,000 miles from new, This is a NO RUST matching number car that has never been wrecked. It has been stored inside from 1973 until now and has never been registered in Calif. The car is from Az. It is a factory air condition car with a six cylinder overhead cam motor and a standard 4 speed. The motor and transmission are out of the car and the motor is apart so that the new buyer can inspect all parts.I have a brand new set of pistons and barrels, new cams and bearing and a new fuel pump.The head and valves look good, I also have a extra rebuilt head that will go with the car and two extra new cams. the inside of the car looks good but will need both seats redone and new carpets and a new dash pad.The only things that are missing are the grille bar, the stainless around the rear window and the exhaust system. I have a lot of extra new parts that will go with the car , I NOW DO NOT HAVE THE TIME OR SPACE TO WORK ON SUCH A PROJECT.

In 1974 the lady who owned the car was driving to Northern California when she drove into a sandstorm that was so violent it etched the windscreen. When she got to her boyfriend they changed the windscreen and the local garage sprayed the car as a lot of paint had been taken off. It went into a barn and stayed there for over forty years until a local vet discovered her, behind a partition that was built around the car; that was two years ago.

The body is immaculate with no rust, dents, nothing whatsoever. It can go straight to paint. The interior is fine except for the seats and dash that have deteriorated over the years. The vet took the engine out as it had frozen, the odometer shows 39,000 miles. He has bought new pistons, liners, etc for the rebuild. Gearbox is fine and everything else is still with the car. The chrome will polish up as new. The only thing that isn't there is the steel exhaust as he was going to fit a stainless steel one.

The car has left San Francisco and will be here 14 September. It will be sold with current California title and with all import taxes paid.
