1968 XKE Series 1 1/2 Convertible
2nd owner for 43 years! Stored for past 5 years.  Matching numbers. Originally beautiful Opalescent Dark Blue  NO RUST  67. 54 miles   Engine turns freely. New Martin Robey complete side floors. rockers. trunk floor.  bottom sections behind rear tires. rear license plate area sheet metal. Some smoothing will be needed between sheet metal sections replaced. Missing alternator and header tank. The 68 series 1 1/2 looks externally Exactly like a late 67.   The bonnet is exactly the same with the same small hole in the nose and turn signals above the bumpers. The headlights can be retrofitted with glass covers and I have seen this done a number of times. It has the same nice small tail lights above the bumpers.  This car even has the series 1 wheel spinners with ears. The 68 has seats that look just like a 67. but also recline unlike a 67. The 68 has dual radiator fans. solving the overheating problems of the series 1s. The 68 has an improved gearbox which provides  noticeably smoother shifting. To produce the ultimate e-type. you would enclose the headlights and put 3 carbs on a 68. You would have all the looks and power of a 67 with the added dual fans. reclining seats. and smoother shifting. Truly. the ultimate e-type. I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. should it sell elsewhere. Serious buyers can contact me at 770-998-5929.
