Ideally Suited for Rigorous Driving Tours & Enjoyment! Introduced in 1961, he E-Type roadster proved to be an immediate success.

This particular Roadster came to us from California ownership near the Nevada border, here it was retained in long term ownership. It has recently received a new interior and a thorough mechanical tune-up to ensure it longevity as a celebrated driver. Work included cleaning the carburetors, lushing and changing fluids and installing a new battery. Additionally factory correct maroon leather and vinyl upholstery in the cabin were installed, long with a new soft top, rey wool hardtop headliner, ew plexi window and rubbers for the hardtop, s well as new period Coker redline tires. Its brightwork and paint have aged and show flaws, ut remain ideally suited for what these lean sports cars are meant for, riving!
Wearing a rare an desirable color combination just as it left the factory; the car displays an honest chassis and strong numbers-matching mechanicals. Overall a very correct car true to its heritage, his Roadster possesses the thrilling driving experience inherent in Jaguar's E-Type as a desirable icon for collector car enthusiasts.
