Lot 61
1974 JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES III V12 ROADSTER
Sold for US$ 89,100 inc. premium
Quail Lodge Auction
Carmel, Quail Lodge & Golf Club
Chassis no. UE1S23843BW
Engine no. 7S14981LA

Built in November of 1973, the sensational example of Jaguar's legendary V12 E-Type offered here left the Browns Lane Jaguar Works configured as a left hand drive car, destined for the US. It was finished in British Racing Green, and trimmed in a Cinnamon colored interior, and fitted with chrome wire wheels. It was imported through British Leyland Motors, Inc. to the selling dealer. Although the car's early history remains unknown, the E-Type is known to have been owned by prominent Colorado-based collector Roger Willbanks by the late 1990s before being purchased by the consignor in 2007. At the time of acquisition, this highly-original Series III E-Type was reported to have covered just 19,000 miles from new.

While a part of the consignor's impressive collection, this powerful Jaguar has been further preserved in its highly original state. It has received the needed service and maintenance, including fuel and cooling system work totaling over $8,000. The car was shown at the 2011 Carmel Concours on the Avenue event during the Pebble Beach week, where the car's 'time-capsule' condition must have impressed enthusiasts who appreciate truly original cars. The car runs very well, and the A/C works well.

Most recently featured in an article in Hemmings Sport and Classic magazine, this preservation-class E-Type has covered less than 21,000 miles from new, and must be one of the most original examples available anywhere.
