extremely impressive with a lovely all original 'Tan' leather

straight with only extremely minor and quite acceptable pitting for
its age. The car has it's original chrome wire wheels and it's
original chrome spare wire wheel and original knock off mallet and

between the years 1969-71 and there were only 4,855 of these highly
desirable FHC (Fixed Head Coupes) built, they are therefore far
rarer than the 8,628 OTS (Open Two Seaters) built or the 5,326
Longer Wheel Base (9") and far less desirable 2+2 coupes. It is
noteworthy that in the final Series III incarnation of the model
there were no FHC built at all but some 7,990 OTS and 7,297 2+2's.
Therefore the Series II FHC Coupes are some of the rarest and most
collectible E-Type Jaguars available of this legendary marque.This
is therefore an extremely rare opportunity to own a very rare all
original surviving example of an original southern California
family owned all stock unmodified 1969 Jaguar XKE Series II 4.2L 2
seater coupe (not 2+2) with factory working air conditioning in
exceptionally fine condition throughout being offered as a
wonderful opportunity for the serious Jaguar collector or indeed
for any British classic car lover!
