Vehicle Description
Exotic Classics, LLC is excited to bring to market this exceptional
and fully restored 1966 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Liter Series 1
Roadster.This vehicle is finished in beautiful Carmen Red with
Black leather interior, and black convertible top. This vehicle has
benefited from a Rotisserie Restoration by Classic Showcase Inc.
This bespoke E-Type offers exceptional performance, with many
modern amenities and upgrades for its outstanding look which took
over 2 years and cost a little over $345,000.This E-type Roadster
is a matching numbers example. The collector decided to have
Classic Showcase Inc perform not only a thorough nut-and-bolt
concours restoration, but added upgrades for performance, comfort
and safety, all of which they well known for. This E-type has been
restored to exacting standards and far better than when originally
manufactured. The original matching-numbers 4.2 liter engine was
completely rebuilt, balanced and blueprinted. Rebuilding includes
overhead cam engine, headers, a 5 speed fully synchronized
transmission, and high-torque starter. Furthermore, the rare SU
downdraft carburetors were meticulously rebuilt and synced for
optimum driving performance. New high-performance camshafts, valve
springs, pistons, lightweight flywheel and balanced crank shaft as
well as an aluminum radiator with an electric cooling fan were
fitted for improved performance and efficiency. A fabricated
stainless exhaust was handmade and an alloy radiator with auxiliary
fan and poly bushings throughout. For better drivability, a
five-speed transmission was supplied and installed. The brake
system was upgraded to Wilwood brakes, braided stainless brake
lines and Gaz adjustable shocks to ensure guaranteed road
holding/handling. Finally, the restored interior received a new
stereo system, comfortable bucket seats, superb instrumentation and
beautiful toggle switches on the dash. Extremely expensive to
duplicate and seldom does a Jaguar with these many upgrades become
available to the public. For the enthusiast who loves to drive a
series 1 Jaguar, buy with confidence
