Vehicle Description
1969 Jaguar XKE E-type Fixed Head Coupe for sale! Motorcar Classics
is pleased to offer this stunning XKE presented in Metallic Light
Blue with Dark blue leather interior. This example is completely
restored and is in excellent condition with single ownership for
the last 30 years. The Series 2 E-types date from 1969 and
represent what is arguably the most refined version of the original
design, which dated from 1961. This car is one of only 2,392 Jaguar
XKE coupes built that year and came equipped with factory air
conditioning. With only 55,740 miles this car has been extremely
well cared for and as noted about is in excellent condition. Much
of the restoration was completed about 12 years ago. More recent
work includes new respray, weather seals, new Daytona chrome wire
wheels, Vredestein Sprint classic tires and a new air condition
unit. All of the chrome on the car is in beautiful condition, some
of which was re-chromed. The leather interior trim and seats were
restored approximately eleven years ago, along with the replacement
of all rugs and mats, and a new mahogany steering wheel was also
installed. The entire interior is in very good condition. All the
wire harnesses, gauges and switches were also replaced or rebuilt.
The original 4.2L straight six-cylinder engine was rebuilt as well,
with only roughly 20,000 miles put on it since. The front and rear
suspensions on the car were also restored a couple of years ago,
and a new stainless-steel header, link pipe and exhaust system were
installed. The heater was rebuilt at that time and new A/C unit
installed. This year, the car underwent a major tune up, in
addition to the exterior work noted above, with all belts and hoses
replaced. Its dual Zenith-Stromberg carburetors were rebuilt, with
a new battery, fuel pump, brake pads, brake hoses amp; pipes,
clutch master cylinder amp; pipes and alternator installed. This
XKEs engine runs incredibly strong, and the car drives smoothly and
handles well. The four-speed manual gearbox feels excellent, as do
the brakes. The car comes with its original jack, tool kit, owners
manual as well as the Heritage Trust certificate. Along with an
extensive collection of restoration/service receipts. Your
inspection is invited!
