Mi Gato (My Cat) is FOR SALE 1966 Jaguar E Type, XKE 2+2 Series 1 (4.2 liter) FHC. Car number 1E75589BW, Engine number 7E50685-9, Auto transmission EJ10955, Body number 4E50638. In 1966 only 2055 2+2s were exported from England. Originally a California car. Now a Wisconsin car but NEVER driven in winter. Seldom driven in rain. Truly rust-free, never restored, 2-owner car with 48,330 original miles. My sister purchased it in California in 1968 while living there. Reason for selling: At age 86 she’d rather drive the Buick. New (2007) new black leather front seats. Torsion bars recalibrated (2008). Engine in good shape. At 90 mph I let off the gas because I'm afraid to go any faster with these old tires. New (2008) stainless steel complete exhaust system. Labels are still on. Has original tire jack and tire tools. Spare tire and rim plus additional chrome spoke rim. Includes books, repair manual and some repair invoices. Tachometer probably needs a new sender. Side-view mirror broken. Clock does not work. Needs driver-side floor mat. Has never been in an accident. Needs a new sun visor on passenger side. Some rattles but wouldn’t YOU rattle if you were 45 years old? 1-2 dash light bulbs are burned out. The headliner is stained in one spot. (see photo) Original engine has never been overhauled. This Spring after sitting in the garage all winter, I attached a booster battery and it started after 7 seconds of cranking! Car was re-painted its original color 30 years ago after vandals threw a bucket of paint on it. I hope the buyer has as much enjoyment as we have had with Mi Gato! Please ask any questions via email and I will do my best to answer them and/or send extra photos. Or stop in if in the area. I am 50 miles north of Milwaukee or 20 miles east of Elkhart Lake Road America racetrack. Transportation is the responsibility of the winning bidder but I will ensure that it gets onto the truck.
