1964 JAGUAR E-TYPE 3.8 LITER FIXED HEAD COUPE, WITH FACTORY WEBASTO SUNROOF. ORIG OPALESCENT SILVER BLUE WITH NAVY BLUE TRIM.
Up for sale, here on Ebay by KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS, is a 1964 Jaguar E-type 3.8 Liter Coupe with a rare and desirable Webasto Continental Sunroof. Jaguar had these sunroofs fitted to their cars by special order by their buyers. The cars were produced as standard coupes by the Company, then sent out to a Webasto fitter at one of their locations. After fitment of the roof, to a very high level of quality, the car was then delivered to a Jaguar dealer for the customer to take delivery of the new car. This was more common on European-delivered cars, as it was fairly rare to see a sunroof car in the States. I'm sure that the JDHT Certificate would have mention of this option. This 3.8 Liter coupe was originally produced in Opalescent Silver Blue with a Navy Blue trim. A very nice light, cool color for a closed car... It has it's correct and original data plate. It had an engine change at some point in it's life with earlier E-type engine R8898-9. Both the cylinder head and block match to that number. The engine is currently stuck and needs rebuilding. It has a correct 3.8 transmission and triple carb induction system. The body overall is decent. The original front dipped floor sections need to be replaced. The bonnet is actually very good with no rust-through, and has excellent shape and form to it. It appears to have come from a primrose-colored car. The trunk area looks decent from the inside, but there is some repairable rust-through areas on the underside. There is an extra hatch lid included with the car that is complete with all the needed parts. There is some minor damage to the LH rocker panel around the battery area. The rocker panels overall appear very solid. Apart from the front floors, the main floors in the car look exceptionally nice and very solid. The doors and hatch lid fit well. This car is mostly complete but is missing a few easy items. Parts needed include a radiator and bonnet front subframe, headlight glass covers and rims, motif bar, air cleaner can, driveshaft, and windshield chrome trim (the lower is present). These items are all available new or used, and are shared with other models. The sunroof still retains all the correct and special items needed for restoration, including the fitter's badge plates. Overall, this is a very good, decent 3.8 Liter Coupe for full restoration. It has the extremely rare and special feature of a factory "authorized" Webasto Continental Sunroof, which would clearly set this car apart from other Coupes on the Concours field when restored. In my opinion it offers the best of both worlds: the visually stunning lines of the Series One Fixed Head Coupe coupled with the open air motoring sensation of a sunshine roof, all original and factory correct to this car... This car is located and can be viewed in Southern California. It is sold with a clear and current California title. $34,900. KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS. 909-920-9221, work. 909-241-1051, cell. |

Reliving the Jaguar XJ220 with a father-son duo
Sat, Mar 14 2015Jaguar may have canceled the C-X75 project, but there was a time when the Leaping Cat marque did make supercars. Sure, there were the XJR-9 and XJR-15 homologation specials made by TWR, but more famous was the XJ220. Although its reign may have lasted only a year before the McLaren F1 came along, for a brief time in the early 1990s, the XJ220 was the fastest car in the world – which is even more impressive when you consider that it was only powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 when its rivals were using mostly V8s and V12s. That makes the XJ220 a rather noteworthy supercar from the dawn of the 200-mph era. The thing is, while Jaguar has come to embrace the XJ220 as an exceptional part of its history, it doesn't have the time or energy to devote to servicing the 275 that were made between 1992 and 1994. So it turns to Don Law Racing. The father-son team – made up of a master mechanic and his hot-shoe offspring – is tasked with keeping the XJ220 alive both in body and in spirit, and do so with a great deal of well-deserved pride. Drive went out to their workshop in Staffordshire to tell their story.
Jaguar readying SUV for Frankfurt debut
Thu, 01 Aug 2013In an effort to target higher-volume vehicle segments, Jaguar is getting ready to introduce its first-ever crossover, and Autoweek reports that we could see it debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. We've heard in the past that the new Jaguar crossover could carry the name XQ, but the report also mentions that the Q-type name is still in the running (now wouldn't Audi just love that?).
A little more clear than the crossover's name, AW says the cargo-friendly Jaguar should ride on the same platform as the upcoming Jaguar XS compact sedan rather than using a Land Rover platform. As for the on-sale date, it still sounds like the XS will hit the roads first in 2015 with the crossover model due out in 2016.
Jaguar Land Rover mulling factory in Georgia?
Sat, Feb 7 2015London's Sunday Times reported last October that Jaguar-Land Rover was sniffing around The South looking for a potential manufacturing site, and was "talking to several southern states." We imagine Georgia was one of them; The Peach State has Kia Motors Manufacturing in West Point, it claims Porsche HQ as a resident, and soon the Mercedes-Benz regional office, too. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has said that Governor Nathan Deal recently took the initiative to fly to the UK to "make prospect calls" with JLR executives about a deal. We don't have any details about the calls, but we'll guess that they involved Deal making a financial case for GA over other states while sipping a cup of tea. It's said that the English luxury maker wants to build a factory here with a 200,000-unit capacity, to take advantage of the same financial efficiencies that have planted other automakers in the US and Mexico; it opened a facility in China last year to build the Range Rover Evoque, Land Rover Discovery Sport, and the Jaguar XE, and is casting eyes over Brazilian and Saudi Arabian soil for other facilities. No timetable has been given for a decision.
