- 1966 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 2+2 Fixed Head Coupe, retaining its matching-numbers engine and presented in Jaguar Dark Blue with a black leather interior
- Fresh to market following an exceptional 51 years of considered ownership, having been acquired by its present custodian in 1975
- The subject of an extensive rebuild some years ago, incorporating numerous replacement panels, sills, arches, rear quarters, boot floor and repairs to the bulkhead
- Importantly, the structural repairs were carried out using the traditional and time-proven method of lead loading, reflecting the considered approach taken throughout the rebuild
- Further expenditure and refurbishment over the years has included a replacement fuel tank, wheel cylinders, radiator core, bumper sections, replacement windscreen and servo overhaul
- The running gear has also received attention, with new springs and shock absorbers, a fully overhauled gearbox and a new set of four chrome wire wheels, fitted with new tyres as required
- The interior has been progressively refreshed where necessary, with continual maintenance throughout the current owner's remarkable period of custodianship
- An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a matching-numbers Series 1 2+2, offered after more than five decades with its current custodian and providing an interesting basis for further enjoyment or sympathetic development
- Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to fully appreciate the opportunity on offer.
