1967 Jaguar E-Type Roadster. This is a private party sale. I am not a car dealer, car flipper, or otherwise. I purchased this car in 2011 from a friend, who at the time did not want to sell it, but had too. Good for me, right. He had purchased the car from a local Southern California owner who had kept the car in storage for about 20 years. There are a few limited paper records indicating its California History. When I purchased the car, it had not been run in what I assume was 20-plus years. The engine turned freely. The car needed brake work. I recently sent the car to a local English car repair shop and did the following: Remove, flush and reinstall fuel tank Rebuild Front and Rear Brake Calipers with SS Sleeves Fluid and Filter Change Other misc. gaskets, etc.
The car runs good. It starts right up and does not smoke when cold or warm. The car is running a little rich, but since I have not done a carb rebuild yet, its expected. Since its return from the shop I have driven the car about 15-Miles. The car needs tires as it has been sitting. I drove it around town a bit but never on the highway. Since taking the photos, I have removed the luggage rack (included with sale.) The car includes a complete trim kit with all rubber, interior kit (Black) etc. The trim kit came with the car, however, I am unclear as to the age or condition. It all seems to be in order, but some parts may be missing and I don’t guarantee fit or condition. Consider it a bonus. I have not located any rust on this car. There is some rust around the battery tray as to be expected. I can remove batter and provide additional photos if desired. The floors are solid and original. As you can see from the photos, someone has used a floor jack to lift the car, and didn’t place it in the correct spot causing the floors to dome upward. So, they are solid but they need to be corrected, but shouldn’t be a big expense. There are door dings as seen in the photos. Most are on the passenger side. The car appears to have two repaints covering the factory silver-grey paint. There is a blue paint job under the current Burgundy Metallic. To make it a driver, at minimum, I would proceed with the following: Carb Rebuild and Sycn Address Oil Leaks (no large puddles, but there are some drip marks on floor) Clutch Replacement This vehicle is offered as is where is with no warranty written or implied. I have described this vehicle to the best of my knowledge and ability. It is the buyer’s responsibility to inspect the car to satisfy themselves as to the condition of the car.
