36090 MILES, ON EBAY 08/07, SELLER WRITES:
I am the second owner of this beautiful XKE roadster. It is a California car with 36,090 original miles and has always been garaged. This car has never been in an accident and still has its second set of tires. The body is very straight and has no dings or rust. The car recently underwent a high-dollar to the metal respray of its primrose yellow paint. Its canvas top, tonneau cover carpet and seats were recently replaced and are in very good to excellent condition overall. I recently had the car's power steering system, radiator, and alternator rebuilt/replaced. The car has factory air conditioning and comes with a very rare removable hard top.
There are various minor defects, which include: a windshield wiper scratch on the driver's side of the windscreen; a tear in the canvas top behind the driver's side window; the rubber cover for the right front bumper is missing; the back corners of the seats have been marred by rubbing against the frame of the convertible top when it is down; the rubber covers for the brake and clutch pedals are missing and there is some minor damage to the car's air dam(from scraping the parking curb). I have included pictures which show the defects.
Shipping is the buyers responsibility. Terms of payment are as follows: $2000 deposit with a cashier's check within 48 hours of closing and remaining balance by cash, cashier's check or wire transfer within 7 days of closing. Inspections completed before closing, as bids are not contingent on inspection. Car is sold "As Is," Where is." If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Current bid US $29,995 reserve not met 1 bid 6 days left in auction. Car now said to be in Evansville, Indiana.

Sellers description;
1973 Series III E-Type Convertible. 4 speed with air. 37,724 orig. miles. All numbers matching. Buying a Jaguar long distance can present a number of issues. I will try to describe the car as completely as I can. I have owned the car since 2009 and have put less than 800 miles on it. The car has been maintained and improved but not restored to show condition. The car is an excellent driver/local show car. The car is from Arizona and has no body rust or rot. The underside is totally solid. I can't find any evidence of any wreck or body damage. However, the lower air duct under the hood has been scrapped and dented. The car has been repainted once in the original Primrose Yellow and the paint is still in great condition but does have some chips particularly along the cowl at the edge of the hood. The chrome is excellent with no fading, pitting, or flaking. The tires have less than 1000 miles. The car has chrome wire wheels in excellent condition. New parts include an aluminum radiator, rebuilt steering rack, fuel pump, fuel filter, ballast resister, and oil change.

The car runs and drives great. It tracks true down the road at 60 mph with no shimmy, shakes or rattles. The clutch is fine w/no slips or snicks. The transmission shifts fine with no grinding. The ride is quiet and you can carry on a conversation or hear the radio up to 55 mph. The engine is strong and starts good and maintains good oil pressure. The car runs a little rough for the first 5 minutes of warm up and then smooths out nicely with ample power and proper idle. The engine compartment is clean but not detailed in any way. The car has some of the usual lower oil leaks. The brakes function fine but the handbrake light remains on.

The interior is good but not great. The seat covers are light tan, not original and the driver's seat shows wear on the beading near the door but has no rips or tears. The carpet is dark tan and OK but older. The door panels are tan and in good shape with some wear. All gauges work except the clock which did work but does not now. The light and flasher, and fan switches work. The interior light switch does not. The windshield is clear but does have a wiper scratch. The radio is not original but does work. The top is ok but has shrunk and has a 1/2 inch split in the rear window.

The cooling system has no leaks and the car does not run hot. The Air Conditioning has been upgraded to 134a but has a slow leak and needs recharging each year to cool properly. Some of the A/C louvre slats in the dash are missing.

Included are two sets of keys, spare tire, jack, tools and bag, luggage rack, tonneau, driver's side remote mirror.
