Best of both worlds. The stunning beauty of a XKE with reliability
and performance of a Ford.
EXTERIOR: Striking good looks. This is one of the most attractive
sports car designs, it is considered rolling artwork. Add to it
those polished aluminum wheels with spinners and wow! The body
appears to be in excellent shape. I'm looking all around it- down
both sides, across every panel it is straight. I don't see any
signs of damage- no door dings, no rust. The paint has a smooth,
glossy finish. The chrome looks like it's in very good original
condition. The rear bumper is re-chromed. The glass has a soft
tint.
INTERIOR: Beautiful condition inside. The seats and headrests are
redone in the correct leather upholstery. The center armrest
cushion and console are reupholstered in leather. The carpets look
new- correctly cut, has bound edges. Dash pad is recovered. It has
all the original Jaguar cockpit style instrumentation and toggle
switches. Original wood grain steering wheel. It does have an
upgraded stereo and speakers.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: What a major improvement. It has a Ford 302
performance built motor. Upgrades include Offenhauser intake with a
dual feed Holly carb, HEI ignition and headers. Dressed up with a
set of vintage finned aluminum valve covers and custom air cleaner
cover. Very recently tuned up, has Ford racing plug wires and new
plugs. The carb was rebuilt. The air conditioning system was
serviced and is blowing cold. It has twin electric fans on the
radiator to keep the car running cool.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The rear hatch opens up with a chrome handle
inside. It is all carpeted and trimmed out meticulously. One of the
original wire wheels is underneath the floorboard.
UNDERSIDE: Appears to be solid. It has the famous Jag rear end with
independent suspension, inboard disc brakes and 4 coil over shocks.
Upfront the suspension looks like it has new bushings, shocks and
rubber boots. It has disc brakes too.
This car will certainly turn heads. There isn't another one like
it. It is exciting to drive too!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
