Vehicle Detail

This vehicle was offered for sale a few weeks ago. Though the reserve was not met, the vehicle was offered to the two highest bidders. Neither of which could make the shipping arrangements to the UK. If you are not familiar with shipping cars to your location, please do not bid as we are not familiar with shipping cars and would prefer to not be held responsible for making the arrangements. So the car is being relisted with a lower reserve and a Buy-It-Now price, which it did not have the last time that it was lsted. Up for sale is this beautiful, one owner, 1969 Jaguar XKE 4.2 roadster. I am not a dealer, I am a family friend of the original owner and I'm assisting her in selling her beloved Jaguar. The car was purchased new from Harrington Motors in Montgomery New York in 1969. It has always been garaged and for the most part is all original. It currently has 45,xxx original miles on it's all original, numbers matching drive train. The interior is all original from its black leather seats to it's mahogany steering wheel to its original Jaguar rubber floor mats. Some scuffs on the leather seats are present, the pad on the center console is a little worn and the clock in the dash does not work, the rear view mirror is cracked. The wood on the steering wheel is cracked but could be easily repaired. The exterior of the car is in excellent condition for an original, forty-six year old car. The car was repainted in the 1970's due to a fender bender type accident but the Primrose Yellow paint has held up very well. It does have some small dings, chips and scuffs as you would expect of a forty year old paint job. One of the issues with the paint is that some of the trim pieces have traces of the repaint on them. The convertible top is in excellent condition. The original chrome wire wheels are in great shape with little rust and just a trace of peeling. The chrome trim is in nice shape. The original engine runs great. It did have some work done last winter by Klaus Garage in Hopewell Junction New York (see pics for repair invoice). The carburetors were rebuilt, the gas tank was replaced, clutch slave cylinder, new battery, brake fluid reservoir, brake master and servo unit, fuel pump, basic tune-up etc work along with a passed New York State inspection. The car runs great, This past May, the car was driven fifty plus miles from my house in Hopewell Junction NY to the Royals Car Show at Lime Rock Racetrack in CT without a problem. I have a couple of short YouTube videos of the car on the road. I can email the links upon request. Please keep in mind that this is a 46 year old, unrestored car. There are some minor issues with the car. The exhaust could use some work as there is quite a bit of rust on it, the Dunlop radials should be replaced, some of the rubber trim should be replaced etc. but how many world class automobiles of this age, in this condition, are presented for sale by the original owner? This is a rare opportunity to purchase a 'time capsule car'. Sale of this vehicle is final. Car is sold 'as is' with no implied warranty. Feel free to post questions I will do my best to answer them promptly. On Jul-22-15 at 06:38:08 PDT, seller added the following information: View on YouTube View on YouTube View on YouTube
