Car returns to ebay 10/3/21

www.ebay.com/itm/274971568436

Buy it now price $39,900 for 29 days, seller affy87i, 74k miles, Orange, California.

Seller's description:

Gallery Junction is pleased to offer our 1972 Jaguar XKE Series III 2+2 Coupe. The car comes from very long term California ownership. It comes with a very nice history file with maintenance, service and restoration records. It was restored by Jaguars Only, here in Southern California and was owned by a family that drove nothing but Jaguar's. It appears to be numbers matching as the engine number matches the data tag. It was built August of 1971 and is believed to be a California car since new. It has excellent panel fitment and very nice gaps. It runs and drives well.

The Interior

New drivers seat base foam and diaphragm

Left Hand Drive, automatic

Front and rear seat belts

The black leather interior has benefitted from the refurbishment of the driver’s seat base with new foam and a new diaphragm. Seatbelts are present for both front and rear passengers, and a new ignition switch with integral steering lock has been installed. 

A full array of switchgear and gauges adorn the dashboard. Above this, some of the vinyl below the windscreen has unfortunately cracked due to UV damage.

Overall, the interior of this E-Type is very usable, with some scope for improvement, more precisely some minor corrosion repairs to the left hand footwell.

The Exterior 

Signal Red

15 inch chrome wire wheels

New Tyres

The vibrant Signal Red paintwork is a colour choice which suits this car perfectly. The paint is in generally good condition but the seller notes some cracking on front of the bonnet flaking on the tailgate and the usual small number of chips and scratches elsewhere.

Sitting on 15 inch chrome wire wheels, all shod with new tyres, this car maintains a purposeful stance on the road, with its distinctive flared exhaust tail. 

A new rear bonnet seal and tailgate seal have been fitted, as well as a new lockable chrome fuel cap.

The Mechanics 

Considerable recent expenditure

Automatic transmission

A few jobs to complete

The seller notes that the 5.3-litre V12 starts readily and shows excellent oil pressure, with no oil smoke on start up and no untoward noises.

Mechanically, this car has been subject to extensive refurbishment. The vendor states that the car has received a new SU double ended fuel pump, NGK plugs, HT leads, coil, battery, cam cover gaskets and oil seals, transmission sump gasket, front brake hoses, a new brake master cylinder, and rebuilt carburettors with all new seals, gaskets, diaphragms and float valves.

The car would benefit from new power steering rack seals, new carburettor throttle spindles, as well as a proper carburettor tune and a general pre-flight check over.

As you can see, this car has received a considerable amount of mechanical attention, and just needs a few loose ends tidying up.

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?
