Over time, experience and a worldwide market dictated many
changes in the sublimely beautiful Jaguar E-Type. During the first
seven years of the E-Type’s life, the changes were evolutionary,
culminating in the 1968 release of the E-Type Series II, a
substantial redesign that also foreshadowed many of the attributes
of the Series III V12 models that entered production in
1971.
Federal regulations in the United States, Jaguar’s most important
market, drove some of the Series II’s changes, including revised
lighting and the shift to a pair of Stromberg carburetors in place
of the three SU units seen primarily on earlier E-Types.
Externally, the radiator air intake increased substantially in
size, a change masked by larger, full-width bumpers that were
matched at the rear to meet U.S. low speed impact requirements. The
well-proven 4.2-liter E-Type six-cylinder engine was little changed
although a twenty-five percent higher capacity water pump was
fitted to take advantage of the larger radiator air intake, better
adapting the E-Type to hotter climates. The chassis got bigger
Girling brakes with three-piston calipers at the front and
two-piston calipers at the rear. Inside, reclining seats were now
standard.
The evolution of the E-Type meant buyers of the Series II got a
much better, more adaptable, comfortable and reliable Jaguar,
attributes that complemented its already well-established
reputation for superior performance, handling, ride and
appearance.
