Jaguar E-Type 3. 8 Roadster 1964 LHD for restoration.   I fully intended to fully restore this car but 2 years on I am even further away from starting the project hence now offering it for sale.   The car is very original and unlike many E-type projects. less the odd small item. largely complete.  

The spec is the highly desirable Opalescent Dark Green with Suede Green Interior and. as enthusiasts ae aware. this colour combination was used in the famous E-Type press car ‘77 RW'.  Indeed I had a car restored in this colour combination some years ago and it was spectacular and I regretted selling it.   I have attached a finished photo of  this car (Picture 12) to give you an idea of one properly finished in this colour. The Jaguar Heritage Certificate confirms the car was built in April 1964 and states the engine number. chassis number. body number and that the first owner lived in New Jersey USA.  

Body wise this car requires extensive work. including new sills. floors. doors. bootlid and the bonnet either repaired using the centre section and some of the inner panels or buying complete new. Mechanically the car is completely unknown but the engine does turn.  The car also come with a rough but original hardtop ( picture 11).  Properly restored this car is likely to command upward of £150k given the current market. An early UK 3. 8 RHD for restoration recently sold for over £100k at auction and Bonhams have an early 3. 8 LHD at auction this weekend with an estimate of £130-150k! These very early outside bonnet lock cars do command a significant premium. but will pull along similar models. In the land of reality I would expect this car to sell somewhere around £35k but I'll let the market decide.  

In addition to the Heritage certificate I have the Certificate of Title from the USA and the European Import document showing the duty paid.   Please call me on 07884 072863 to discuss or view.  I am also advertising this car shortly on other web sites so reserve the right to end the auction early.

Buyer is to pay £1000 deposit within 1 working day by Bank transfer and the balance on or before collection. I am happy to store the car for upto 2 weeks beyond the sale. Please no scammers etc. you will be wasting your time; seen it and heard it all before!
