This is a matching numbers 1969 E-Type coupe in great condition as the pictures indicate. The Signal Red Jaguar paint has a gorgeous, high gloss. Every aspect of the car has been addressed since I purchased it in Texas in 2003. I am the third owner. The engine has great compression, no oil leaks, no smoke and exudes power. Transmission shifts easily. Carburetors were tuned six months ago. Odometer reads 28,168 but repair records show that the odometer was repaired in 1988. Based on the records and the car’s condition, I estimate the total mileage to be 66,000. I have driven the car 1,670 miles since 2003. Tires have about 80% of tread remaining. A partial list of restoration work with new parts includes: Petronix electronic ignition, distributor cap, ignition switch, headlights, plug wires, front and rear suspension bushings, front and rear shocks, front brake lines, lower steering u-joint, Jaguar correct covering on rear floor and an Alpine AM/FM Radio and CD player. Additional restoration includes rebuilt rack and pinion steering assembly, radiator fans (2), and master clutch cylinder. I have saved the original parts that have been replaced. There are only a few minor issues to be addressed: very small heat bubbles on left louvers of bonnet (see picture); one wheel has surface rust on interior hub portion; factory AC works, but needs a recharge; dime-sized defect on left rear wheel well (see picture). The interior is in excellent condition: dash, console, leather seats with no tears, patches or splits. All instruments work, except the clock. With the car are the Owner’s Manual, Repair Manual, a Jaguar tool roll with tools, jack and jack bag, car dust cover, 31 years of repair records (catalogued by date), pictorial record of repairs and three Jaguar books. This is a magnificent driving machine that I part with reluctantly, but it’s time to pass the torch. Please come and see the car and/or Email your questions.
