    46224 MILES, ON EBAY 09/07

    URL for above:
    cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jaguar-E-Type-1974-E-Type-V-12-Roadster-4-Speed-NO-RESER ...
    Current bid $12,100, no reserve, 3 bids, 9 days left in auction.

    Sellers description:
    Easy Restoration, or fix it up a little and drive it. This car was last driven about 5 years ago, and has been sitting in the garage since. It starts, but will not idle without the choke pulled out. The brakes and clutch are firm, and I had no problem pulling it in and out of the garage to take photos. The cooling fans operated automatically, which is rare in these cars.

    It was originally silver, and is now painted a charcoal color. The paint is very good, but has a couple of small nicks and scratches. The red interior is original. The seats are kind of hard and discolored, and the headrests are shriveled. Carpets are ok. The top will not close completely, so it will probably need to be replaced. The rear window is discolored. The front bumpers are missing (I can't find them). It has a Pioneer AM/FM Cassette player. A factory Hardtop is included.

    This car has had the same owner since 1982. I don't know the history before that. It was purchased in Los Angeles, and had a Hawaii license plate at the time. It has been driven very little in the last 25 years. A little cleanup and tune-up would make it a good driver, or restore the paint and interior to show it.

    I bought this car fall 2007 on eBay. Car arrived Norway (Oslo) i January this year. She has undergone a total check-up and is now partly restored with a full mecanichally tune-up and new interior, hood, euro-spec bumpers etc. New pictures will be added soon.

    The car has undergone a total restauration during my ownership. It was and still is near concours. Toatally defederalized. Now euro spec all through. A lot of upgrades, i.e. 5 speed all billet aluminium box from E-type Fabs UK. Engine rebuilt with 9:1 pistons, new liners, redone tops with bigger valves, etc. Complete new stainless big bore system with cheramic coated headers. Concour winner at the Norwegian Jaguar Clubs summer meeting 2013.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    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?
