This spectacular car
was has been in the position of a collector for over 28 years.
Loaded with options, including: the desired 4-speed
transmission, chrome wire wheels, factory air conditioning, power steering,
power brakes and more. This car has been in climate controlled storage for
the past 15 years and prior to that was only driven sparingly( 24,972 miles). It
is maroon in color (the best color!) with black leather seating. This roadster
has a tan Hartz fabric convertible top that was hand crafted. It needs some TLC, and new paint to be
perfect. Want to sell out of storage to a true restorer without needless
consumer type fluffing. If you know Jags, and want a really good basic car
to restore, this is it. Can also be a driver, if that is the goal, but
owner had plans for 100% restoration. No time to do so now.
The
Jaguar V-12 engine was introduced into production for 1971 . The original
5.3-liter engine had an over square 90mm bore by 70mm stroke production 285 horsepower.
The
Jaguar E type, also known as the XK-E, brought style
and performance together to create a mass-produced supercar. It's design was created by an aerodynamic engineer named
Malcolm Sayer. The front engine, rear-wheel drive vehicle featured a moncoque
body and a tubular front chassis. The suspension was independent
with disc brakes on all four wheels. It brought together the best or
aerodynamics, coupled with the latest technology and propelled by a potent
engine. The vehicle offered excellent performance and handling. Some of the
most common complaints it received initially were the cabin being too cramped
and it suffered from poor ventilation, both cured by the series 3 redesign.
Production for the E-Type ceased in 1975, after 72,520
examples being produced.
Many
years but few miles ago, this E type had the inner rear axle seals replaced
with high temp types, the rear end removed and rebuilt, and the brakes rebuilt;
the power steering rack has been totally disassembled and machined for bronze
bushings and hydraulic cylinder type oil seals , curing two extremely
aggravating and recurrent problems with E types. The OPUS ignition was replaced
then with new, and minor rust around only one rear axle location link
body attachment point was rebuilt and strengthened with an added thicker steel
anchor plate ; The car was driven several thousands of miles without
problems after this work, then stored. There are no typical JAG rust issues
with this car due to heated storage for many years. Repairing a rusty one can
cost more than the car itself.
