KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS offers for sale, here on Ebay, a 1966 Jaguar E-type Coupe. It is a full matching numbers example and was originally produced in the highly attractive and desirable color scheme of Golden Sand with Tan trim. Although partially disassembled for restoration, it remains a very complete car with all parts being carefully bagged, catalogued, and boxed. It is also a highly original car, still retaining all of it's original glass, chrome, trim, etc. with some items still in very good overall condition. The only item not present is the original wiring harness, which was most likely discarded and to be replaced by a new one. The recorded mileage is a very believable 73,714 as shown on the speedometer. The body on this car is unbelievably good and solid, being completely accident-free and rust-free, except for an area only around the battery box/front sill closing panel (caused by battery acid) and a small spot on the front of the LH wheelarch. The rocker panels, floors, jacking points, trailing arm areas, bonnet, and boot (trunk) floor are all perfectly rustfree. The dipped portion of the front floors have sustained some dents from the underside but are easily repairable. Some inner bonnet sheetmetal parts have been removed during the disassembly, but are present. All of the body panels are original to the car and fit well. The front subframes, picture frame, and bonnet subframe are all excellent. The engine compartment and interior still show the original paint. The car has had only one inexpensive respray in a bronze metallic hue. There are a few minor dents on the LH rear fender. There are still some factory chalk marks on some panels. The monocoque, bonnet and subframes overall are exceptionally good and straight, this car being very well-preserved. PLEASE NOTE, there is some orange-colored dirt on the car's underside that may appear like rust. The undercarriage on this car is perfectly solid. The engine in the car does turn, but no attempt has been made to start it. The car rolls and steers fine. A few engine items have been removed but are present with the car. The car itself appears highly original and the drivetrain most likely has never been removed. All mechanical components match the original data plate. The interior trim is still the original. The door panels are in great condition. The original seats are good overall. The car still retains all of it's original chrome trim, Triplex glass, dashboard and gauges, etc. as seen by the photos. The radio console has an original Motorola unit installed. The car still has it's original seat belts with the Jaguar logo. Overall, this is an exceptionally nice, very desirable 4.2 Liter Series One E-type Coupe for easy, straightforward restoration. It is a highly original, matching numbers car with an excellent body and an attractive factory color scheme.
