Jaguar e-type for sale

Due to compounding health issues with my legs I can longer drive my e-type for long distance which is what I had it rebuilt to do. 

The  car was dispatched from the factory in 1970 to the USA. It was registered in Jan 1972 to a gentleman from whom it was purchased from via a dealer in California for me. I have the title document which confirmed the purchase.

This car was a very genuine never been restored example. When I purchased the car in 2017 it  was showing 98,000 miles when it arrived with me.  The car was in very good order but a little tired. 

The restoration company started off  with mechanical overhaul so I could use it for long distance traveling and continental  classic car rallying ( that's why LHD). So rear subframe out and overhauled with all brakes, bushes, dampers ect. Front suspension and brakes the same. Cooling system overhauled and new high capacity aluminium radiator with high volume eclectic fans. Electronic ignition. Up rated heater. Fully serviced. New clutch and lighted flywheel. 

Up graded Rob Beere adjustable competition front torsion bars fitted to give better cornering stability. Fittings for rally seat belts and fully wired for rally equipment.

Having gone this far the restoration company suggested a strip and repaint as the paint was looking tired. So interior stripped out repainted and fitted with acoustic sound deadening. The outer part of the car stripped to bare metal and painted and all bumpers sent off and re-chromed. That was  £40k. I have all the receipts and photos.  

Please note I had fitted faux leather seat covers due to leather problems in the sun and easy to clean. Leather seat covers can be easily fitted.  

I cannot think of anything more that needs doing to the car except the new hood fit to the windows needs adjusting and it requires a boot carpet. 

Car drives  very well  as you would expect with the  major mechanical overhaul  but it was restored for me to use not to win cups. Ready to drive, enjoy and do classic car rallies in if you want.
