About Our Car: Here is our pride and joy, an Authentic 1964 Jaguar
XKE 3.8L Roadster, 2014 North American Concourse Champion. This car
is believed to be the Best available in the world. Full Nut and
Bolt Rotisserie restoration completed in 2014. This car is an
Original Black Plate California car and spent its entire pampered
life rolling down the Pacific coast highway. We wanted to start
this restoration with a solid, complete car so we could restore it
using the Original parts and components from this car not second
hand or reproduction parts. We meticulously removed every nut and
bolt, media blasted them and restored them back to the original
manufacture finish. Everything on this car is Correct as when
originally assembled new. This E-Type is the finest example of a No
Expense Spared restoration that you will ever see. The Only Goal
with this build was to Create the Best Concours Jaguar in the
World, and when this car goes to a Councours show... It Wins!

the 1964 E-Type: Jaguar certainly made their mark on the automotive
industry when they introduced the E-Type in 1961. The E-Type Jaguar
had all of the cutting edge technology. Right out of the box, this
car was good for a top speed over 150 mph and 0-60 mph around 6.5
seconds. Technological advances included monocoque construction
disc brakes, rack and pinion steering and independent front and
rear suspension. One area that Jaguar really hit the nail on the
head was the styling. E-types are often referred to as some of the
most beautiful vehicles ever made. This particular example is a
Series 1 which are considered to be the most desirable and most
beautiful. This run from 1961-1967 is known for its covered
headlights. The glass headlight covers frame the front mouth
opening on either side. This opening is smaller on the Series 1
cars in comparison to the later cars. Other distinguishing features
are the rear lights mounted above the bumpers and the exhaust
exiting beneath the number plate in the rear. The 3.8L Inline 6 is
equipped with triple SU carburetors and is good for an output of
265 horsepower and 240 lb ft of torque. The power is put to the
wheels through the Moss four-speed gearbox. These Power figures
were highly impressive for this era, especially considering the
lightweight construction kept the weight of this roadster under
3000 pounds. This car has correct leather-upholstered bucket seats,
Leather-trimmed center instrument panel and console. The vehicle
rides on independent suspension all around and features very unique
inboard rear brakes. Power disc brakes are standard in all four
corners. This particular XKE has been privately owned by the owner
of JK Auto Group. The engine and transmission are original to this
car and have been completely restored to exact factory
specifications. The odometer shows 4 miles since completion as it
has been used as a trailer queen for concourse judging and a museum
piece since completed. The car can be driven or enjoyed as the best
example available anywhere in the world. With prices souring on
high quality E-types there's no question these are desirable
roadsters and will prove to be an amazing investment piece. Enzo
Ferrari has been quoted as saying the E-Type is the most beautiful
car in the world.... and we Agree! 2014 North American Concours
Champion! This Car won this title the very first year of showing.
With nothing left to prove it is now retired as a museum show peace
