According to Jaguar Heritage Trust, 1E31718 was constructed on
September 3, 1965 in Opalescent Dark Green over Beige - as it wears
today, with engine number 7E 5618-9 - distributed by Jaguar Cars,
New York as a U.S. specification, lefthand drive, 4.2 liter
fixed-head coupe. In recent years, the E-Type was acquired from
decades of enthusiast ownership out of Eldorado Hills, California.
It's said the previous long-term caretaker spent lavishly over many
years comprehensively restoring the vehicle - which was ultimately
finished by its next steward in Pleasanton, California in 2021.
Beautiful cosmetics are complemented a solid body and chassis.
Today, the car remains matching numbers (engine block and head),
with a recent Summer 2022 inspection and tune-up performed. An
aluminum radiator, oversized electric fan, polyurethane bushings,
and adjustable GAZ shocks offer all-weather / all-road reliability.
This beautifully honest and extraordinarily presented Jaguar E-Type
Series I 4.2-Litre Coupe offers immediate display, concours, and
global vintage touring capabilities.
