Ebay item 7/14/17
www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Jaguar-E-Type-Series-II-/182667207686
Opening bid US $140,000, no reserve, no bids 6 days left in auction, seller bavmotorsport, 42k miles.

Sellers description:
In reading the large binder with all the original paperwork on this stunning E-Type Series II Jaguar, I can't help but be filled with emotion when I read the note dated May 11th, 1988. "I, John J. DiN., relinquish the ownership to Fred W. for this 1969 XKE Jaguar." There's no price on it....there's no amount of money of what it was sold for or how long it took for them to come to an agreement on this vehicle (6 months)! Now years later- it's been weeks and the seller and I have gone back and forth with what to sell this most beautiful car I've ever seen! How do you put a price on a car where with those words- " I relinquish my car" as if to give up your soul? No wonder the owner and I have struggled with a price, because, really, this car is priceless!

"A CAR IS ONLY ORIGINAL ONCE" the owner told me of this example of one of the most seductively beautiful cars ever built. Pale Primrose with a black leather interior and black convertible top (black cover)1969 Jaguar E Type Series II LHD 2 seater. This E-Type Jaguar OTS is a time capsule/survivor. The body is straight and no evidence of rust having been inside a garage all its life. The chrome is overall in good condition. Panel fit is very good and chrome wire wheels with period correct narrow whitewall radials. The black interior is in very good condition. Minimal work in upkeep and repair on this car during 28 years of ownership by the current owner. Based on information that the original/previous owner provided- it is not evident that this car has had any major work done on it anywhere of any kind! The only paintwork is on the left rocker panel. It was re-sprayed in the battery area due to battery acid dripping down the rocker. Lead filled seam between rocker and rear wing/quarter panel are all part of standard 1960's production of these cars by Jaguar Motorcars. You would never see this in a fully restored or concourse car -sometimes over improved . In this case, the factory did it all, because this car is the benchmark from which a car should be evaluated.

All of the coolant hoses were replaced under the bonnet, and during this process had all of the factory original hose clamps (Chaney) cleaned and re-plated (clear cadmium). Wright, wrong or indifferent, never considered this restoration, just preservation. Also, the entire rear suspension was removed from the car and completely gone over it including painting (powder coated) the cage that supports all of the suspension. The rear chrome resonators were found to have some pin holes in them when the car was initially acquired by Mr. Wright which provided an opportunity to install an free flow exhaust system typical of the day, i.e. ANSA, Abarth and Stebro due to their wonderful sound, appearance and added performance of a free flow exhaust system. In this case a complete ANSA exhaust system was installed. However, the original exhaust system, excluding the rear resonators, is still in-tact and available to the new owner. The original oil gauge was changed out with a more accurate direct reading gauge that looks identical in the dash as the original (original oil gauge available with sending unit to the new owner) along with the European front and rear lenses to personalize the car and also since it sports a European front license plate. This car was originally registered in Europe so that it could be driven for some period of time without being subjected to VAT (yellow border around UK license plate as seen in photo's) there's a good chance that this car originally had European lenses when it first came to the US that were changed by the local Jaguar dealer in order to legally inspect the car. All of the lenses and headlights are factory Lucas lenses. US specification front and rear Lucas lenses available to the new owner.

This car is impossible to replace!! This E-Type aka XKE is well documented with history from day 1, including books, tools and records and VAT tags. It has the complete original document file with all booklets including its very rare service stamp book.

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?
