1968 Bespoke Jaguar E Type Series 1.5 Roadster.

Apart from obtaining a new but extremely rare E Type from the factory, this bespoke Series 1.5 Roadster is effectively a new car.

The laborious and painstaking task of completely dismantling this matching numbers vehicle, started in October 2014. The brief was to create a 'new' car bespoke to a 1967 UK specification. This included new triple SU carburetors and manifold, a re-engineered higher ratio differential, two eared chrome wheel spinners for the 5 new chrome wire wheels and glass covered in headlights. The full interior including the dashboard has been hand finished in leather.

In reassembling the various body panels and sections, the floor including the boot, inner and outer sills, plus the inner and outer pedal sides, have all been replaced. The finished body shell was first media blasted before being coated in molten Zinc at 400 deg C. The bonnet panels were zinc coated before reassembly.

The matching numbers 4.2 ltr engine and gearbox have been totally rebuilt. Forward of the firewall all structural support frames, engine and bonnet, are new. All ancillary engine bay parts and equipment are either new or have been overhauled. Items such as radiator and cooling fan like the braking system have been upgraded. Front and rear suspensions like the stainless steel exhaust system are new.

Apart from having the same lighting positions, a Series 1.5 has has an alternator and a collapsible steering column. Coupled with the Series 1 breathtaking good looks, and finished in Opalescent steel blue with a dark blue mohair hood this car's appearance is magical.

With under 50 test miles on the clock, this magnificent example of an E Type Roadster is available for immediate delivery or collection to a discerning user/collector at the guide Price of 135,000. PX possible W.H.Y? Cleared funds prior to collection, bank draft or cleared cheque. Delivery at buyer's expense.
