This 1974 Jaguar E-Type Series III roadster is powered by a Chevrolet 350ci V8 linked with a three-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. The car is finished in burgundy over tan leather, and features include a tan soft top, a top boot, an Edelbrock carburetor, four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, 15” knock-off wire wheels, a wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel, a CD stereo, and air conditioning. The current owner acquired the car in 2017. This Series III E-Type is now offered in Connecticut on dealer consignment with a clean New York title.
The seller indicates that the car was repainted in burgundy under prior ownership. Features include a tan soft top, a matching top boot, uncovered headlights, a forward-hinged louvered hood, chrome bumpers, a driver-side mirror, four exhaust outlets, and a power antenna. Repair marks on the convertible top are pictured in the gallery below along with imperfections on the top and the top boot.
Chrome-finished 15″ wire-spoke wheels are secured with knock-off spinners and are mounted with 215/70 Michelin MXV4 tires. The Series III E-Type was factory equipped with power steering, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes with inboard rear rotors.
The cabin features seating surfaces upholstered in tan leather as well as color-coordinated door panels and carpeting. A JVC CD head unit has been installed below the shelf located behind the driver seat. Other appointments include air conditioning, a heater, black rubber floor mats, a center armrest, and a wood Jaguar-branded knob on an aftermarket shifter. Wear on the driver seat and other imperfections are visible.
A wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel frames Smiths instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline. An analog clock along with auxiliary gauges for battery voltage, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level are positioned in the center stack. The five-digit odometer shows 84k miles, approximately 800 of which were added under current ownership; true mileage is unknown.
The Chevrolet 350ci V8 was installed under prior ownership in place of the factory V12 engine. Equipment includes an Edelbrock carburetor, an Edelbrock air cleaner, Jaguar-branded chrome valve covers, an Edelbrock ignition amplifier, a Mallory distributor, and a Holley air-conditioning compressor. The oil was changed in 2023.
Casting number 14016379 on the engine block corresponds with a late-1970s Chevrolet 350.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. The dual exhaust system ends at a quad-exit finisher beneath the rear bumper.
