Vehicle Detail
Listed for sale by Coventry Garage LLC, is a 1967 JAGUAR XKE (E-Type) 2+2 Coupe that is in absolutely wonderful, NEVER ANY RUST, condition. We are offering it for sale with the "BUY IT NOW PRICE" OF $14,500.00. (VIN# 1E77588) LET ME REPEAT - NO RUST ANYWHERE ON THIS CAR! This car has all the right features: 4 speed manual transmission, 3 carb 6 cylinder in line XK engine, white exterior with dark blue interior, wire wheels, factory air conditioning, factory rear window de-fogger (that works) and NO RUST. This 2 DOOR SPORTS COUPE has two small seats in the rear with a luggage area behind the second row seat. There is absolutely NO RUST ANYWHERE ON THIS CAR. The floors, doors, sills, trunk and bonnet are in near perfect condition as the car only has about 56000 miles on it and it looks like its never been driven in the rain. IF YOU HAVE EVER WANTED TO OWN A BRITISH SPORTS CAR, this is the one to buy as the prices on series 1 XKE'S keep on going up. This car runs great, starts quickly, shifts nicely and has a nice interior. The paint shines pretty well but could use a buff and wax and it would be very presentable. We have the carpets out of the car presently so you can see the floors. This car has a series 2 Jaguar XKE bonnet (hood) on it. It came originally with a series 1 bonnet (hood) but at sometime prior to 1981 the original bonnet was replaced for unknown reasons (probably was due to a traffic accident at some time). The car also has series 2 cam covers and series 2 wheels- other than that, this car has three SU carbs, small tail lights, small rear bumpers, dash toggle switches, and MATCHING NUMBER ENGINE, BODY TUB AND GEAR BOX. We are presently performing some rear brake work to the car as these cars are prone to sticking brakes after sitting for a while. We found this car locally in a heated garage but it had not been driven in some time. The former owner painted a lot of the suspension parts and the interior floors with some sort of anti-rust paint. We just installed new sparking plugs, changed the rear chrome silencers to series 1 silencers, changed the engine oil, filled the gas tank with new premium gasoline and loosened up the rear brakes enough that the car can now be driven- and it drives very nicely! We thought about changing the bonnet before selling the car, but this bonnet fits nicely and the paint matches well. The car does need rear brake work and the front headlights are not hooked up, but that is all this car needs to make a very nice XKE driver. If you come out to see this XKE we can put the car up on our lift for you so you can view the car from underneath. Both Gary and I (Dan) are members of the Jaguar Clubs of North America and of our local Jaguar Club of Pittsburgh. If necessary, we can give you names of local Jaguar restorers/mechanics whom you can contract with to assess this E-Type for you. If you fly into Pittsburgh, we can pick you up at the Pittsburgh International Airport. All shipping arrangements and expenses will be paid by the buyer. The car will not be shipped until all funds clear our bank. We can offer this car at such a reasonable price because we are a very small, PA. licensed, used car dealership. We specialize in foreign/exotic/British sports cars but we also sell Japanese sedans for everyday driving too. Please phone Dan at 412-680-1639, or Gary at 412-638-2715 to arrange to see and drive this great British sports car. If you want to see more photos, just write me an e-mail and I can attach more detailed photos. We are located at 1505 Fifth Ave., McKeesport, PA. 15132 (just outside Pittsburgh, PA.). This car is for sale locally and thus I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION AT ANY TIME IF THE CAR IS SOLD PRIOR TO THE END OF THE AUCTION. Thanks for looking; Dan and Gary at Coventry Garage LLCOn May-14-10 at 20:48:43 PDT, seller added the following information: By the way, we do have the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust document that shows that this E-Type was built in 1967, was Cream in exterior color with a Dark Blue interior and delivered to it's first owner here in Pittsburgh PA. We are reasonably certain that we purchased this car from the second owner's estate. Also, we just installed new steering column bushings in the steering column because the old bushings were worn and there was some play in the steering- not any more. The air conditioning vents are in pretty good shape and the steering wheel and horn button are in very good shape. We do have more photos of the floors from underneath the car and can send to you. The floors are in very good condition especially at the jacking points and at the large radius arm connections. Ther are no signs that these floors or trunk/boot area were ever worked on as both are in very nice condition.
