Offered here is a beautifully restored 1968 Jaguar E-Type Coupe for consideration. This is car number 1E78956, which according to the E-Type registry means it is a Series 1.5 left-hand drive 2+2 and has the enclosed headlights. Only 1,577 of these cars were built, making this example highly sought-after. And it also has just over 20,000 original miles.
The car is has undergone a full restoration and is finished in the original Dark Blue paint. The seats have also been re-upholstered. This Jaguar is powered by the original XK 4.2L Inline-6 engine. It has been fully serviced with a complete tune-up and carburetor recalibration in 2016. It does have some tasteful upgrades, which have encouraged its performance, in a CoolCat Cooling system, 5-speed manual transmission, and a RetroAir A/C system.
The car has always been owned by a member of the Jaguar Club. It is an excellent example that fires on command and drives true. With the limited production numbers and low miles, this is a great investment. Call or e-mail if interested. Thank you for looking.
