1965 Jaguar Series I 4.2 E-type/XKE Fixed Head Coupe

1965 Jaguar E-Type Series I

Listing my cherished S1 fixed head coupe E-Type.

Only photos I have, you will have to view in person or have your third party inspect if further interested. Located Bushnell Florida

Interior;
Refreshed Interior with many clever and tasteful features including additional custom dotted aluminum trim, hidden digital temp guage, retro air AC, interior lighting, stereo Bluetooth with backup camera-all cleverly hidden (comfortably make a phone call via the built in speakers in 4th gear!) Early style bucket seats in beautiful contrasting biscuit, additional trim from Aldridge Trimming in the UK. The MOST insulated and QUIET E type ANYWHERE on the interior. I went a little overboard with sound insulation however it really paid off and makes it a comfortable cabin to be in.

Engine; I had rejuvenated many bits a few years ago and added triple Webers which start first crank and idle perfect. Sound even better.

I made custom aluminum engine bay trim, replaced the plastic brake & clutch fluid bottles with aluminum which are mounted to the firewall away from the heat.
Engine bay mounted fuel pressure guage aids in tuning.
Full engine lighting with flip of a switch-Will light up entire engine bay. Very handy for any inspecting.
Most of the metal bits in engine bay are powder coated same gold color as the heads. Engine block painted. Coolant filter installed as extra precaution for the rodded radiator couple years ago.

Bluetooth 123 distributor which can interface with your phone app to adjust curves etc.

Modern spin on oil filter, series 2 style cooling set up with ultra high efficiency Spal fans I modified into a s2 shroud. (I wired separate relays for each fan and have very cleverly hidden lights in the panel which turn on when fans are activated. I wanted this to be the coolest running E Type in existence so that I can comfortably drive in Florida traffic

Exterior:
I bought it from a dealer in CA about 5 years ago, the car spent the majority of its life in CA and there is NO rust. It has older Carmen red paint, which is not perfect but very presentable. Has few blemishes but you will still be the prettiest car on the road. If you want perfection then you are looking north of $120k. The original color was midnight blue.
I installed new bell stainless steel exhaust, new ceracote exhaust manifolds with extra heat shielding, I POR 15 entire bottom of car, new gearbox mount bushings, and many other bits I’m sure I haven’t thought of.

New tires within past 2 years

This E type is no garage queen. I drive it long distances of 2 hours at a time.
I can do video chat viewings but I prefer in person inspections. I suggest and encourage you or your mechanic to view and inspect prior to any deposit.

All lights work great, runs excellent very quick, drives excellent, stops excellent.

I paid $70k several years ago from a reputable southern CA dealer, I put an additional $20k plus into this not including all of my time and labor. No games not looking to get rich it’s a net loss. You will not find a nicer driving example.

Only selling because I have 3 E-Types and even though they aren’t as pretty, I prefer the 2+2 version with the higher roof.
