1961 Jaguar E-Type

Early E-type flat floor roadster with factory hardtop including rare rear window chrome. Early latches as well. Matching numbers. Black w/Red interior. I've owned this E for many years and I don't anticipate getting around to having it restored. Runs, steers and drives. Front brakes work. Rears are out and in the parts box as they were to be serviced after cad plating but never got around to it. This car is complete although everything is not in the pictures. Sound original floors. Nice bulkheads. The bonnet is really nice although not correct for this car. New Boot floor and Right outer sill. I think you'd have a difficult time finding a more rust free example. You may have noticed that it has an outside lock bonnet which is from one of the first 500 cars. It's stamped 428. It must have been replaced early in it's life. 1964/65 PA inspection sticker. Many early features/parts. Butlers license lights. A&A ball joint caps. Smooth plenum.Smooth oil pan. Early 3 post intake manifold. Weld nuts on the sills which is why an OBL bonnet will work. Dished outer door finishers and two piece door skins. Original Marston Excelsior radiator. 3:31 Diff with early hollow half shafts. Gauges, steering wheel, dash, etc. all original. Original hood envelope with body number in crayon inside. No tools and Shelly jack sorry to say. Original carpets/ hardura and all other original trim panels included. Not a bad running engine. Needs tuning. I just replaced the jet/diaphragms and cleaned the carbs. fires up well. Electrics work. lights, turn signals, back up lights, head lights, wipers, fans...all except horns and washer. Generator is discharging. Forward and reverse work of course. Clutch is nearing the end of it's life. NJ Title and Heritage Certificate. Car is now located at my beach house in Atlantic City, NJ as pictured. All questions invited. Personal inspections are invited and encouraged.
