This E-Type is presented in Azure Blue with a black interior and the all-important manual gearbox. The car is presented in smart useable condition with just some micro blistering on the bonnet and some corrosion beginning on the rear arches. It has recently been mechanically recommissioned at a cost of nearly £2,000 by Light Cars Action, who are highly regarding for their historic race car preparation and professional bodyshop. This work included a full refresh of the fuel system, cleaning the fuel tank, stripping down and refitting the clutch system with new parts and various other small jobs. The interior could very possibly be the original and wears a nice patina. Our vendor purchased this car in 1988 and has cherished it since however he has decided to offer it for sale as it isn't getting the use it deserves, and a new owner will be best placed to bring the car up to the next level. Supplied to auction with a comprehensive history folder and a V5C registration document. Consigned by Fraser Smith
