1967 Jaguar XKE FHC

This Series One SWB E Type coupe has benefited from several significant mechanical upgrades. It retains its original matching number engine. but has had triple 45 DCOE Weber carbs fitted as well as a desirable five speed transmission. an alloy radiator and fairly recent Dayton wire wheels. Although the car is presently running and driving. it has been sitting for several months and would benefit from a thorough service prior to being put back on the road. Cosmetically. the car is a little rough around the edges. The footwells have been replaced rather crudely with 'home made' repair panels. and the right hand sill has a fair amount of rust bubbling up beneath the paint. but overall this E Type is quite solid and could certainly be used and enjoyed in its current state. The lower rear quarters. boot floor. bonnet. doors and rear floors are unusually solid. The car is Opalescent Maroon. as it was when it left the factory in the spring of 1967. This is a car that could be serviced. driven and gradually restored. without taking it off the road for extended periods. In essence. this is a running and driving restoration project. **The sale does include the original triple SU carb set. air cleaner assembly. and a 4 speed synchro gearbox (in good working condition) with bell housing. A short video of the car running and driving (5/5/15) can be viewed in the Cars for Sale section of classicjaguar. comSold strictly 'as is. where is' with no warranty of any kind being offered. Clear title conveys to the new owner. For an appointment to view. please email through the eBay system or call (512) 288 8800.
