This light blue over black leather E-Type is well equipped with factory air-conditioning, power steering, and chrome wire wheels. Purchased by the vendor from its long-term owner in South Carolina and brought north to its current home, immediately after acquisition it was sent to Jaguar specialist Paul Maletsky who extensively went through the car, attending to a number of details. The front suspension, ball joints, Pirelli P4 tires and electronic ignition were all replaced. A new stainless steel exhaust system was put in place while the brakes and hydraulics were thoroughly inspected and attended to, resulting in the replacement of the hoses, booster, and master cylinder. The Borg Warner automatic transmission and Lucas electrical system were both checked and repaired as needed. A full regular maintenance was also conducted to ensure everything was in order.

Besides the upkeep one would expect and a later respray, this Jaguar is as it left the Coventry factory. Reported to run and drive well, the vendor reports that it is not only a pleasure to wheel around, but that it is plenty comfortable for his six-foot-plus frame. In showing the car locally in the Tri-State area, it has also won some recent awards. Summer is here, it is convertible season, here is your chance to avoid being left without a suitable steed.
Estimate:
US$ 45,000 - 55,000
