1967 Jaguar E-type Series I Fixed Head Coupe

Please Read All

MotorCarTrader.com, LLC is proud to offer another truly great Jaguar E-type. This is a very special, low mileage and two owner 1967 Jaguar E-type Series I Coupe. This gorgeous car was manufactured on January 17th of 1967 in Carmen Red with Black Interior. It was dispatched on February 8 of 1967 and the first owner was Mr. E.G. Garvin. Mr. Garvin was a very meticulous owner. He kept a log of the work done to this car since the day he bought it on 10/6/1967. He then sold the car to the second owner on September 30th of 1973, who was also very meticulous as well and took exceptional care of this great Jaguar. We purchased this car from the second owner in the fall of 2013. The odometer currently reads 24,454.

This Jaguar E-type is a special find. She runs and drives perfect. This e-type is very fast, tight and everything feels just perfect. The ride is very comfortable and has excellent acceleration. There is not shaking in the steering wheel at any speed and the car stops straight and hard. The clutch feels great and the gearbox shift smoothly with no noises in any of the gears. If you are looking for a Jaguar E-type Series I Coupe that has the great original e-type driving experience and still feels like it is new, this is the car. I have driven a lot of etypes and this one if truly one of the best to drive. More information about this great car is as follows:    

  • The first owner (Mr. Garvin) drove the car about 27,000 miles. The car was sold to the second owner in 1973 that drove the car another 6,000 miles since. At 18,107 miles the Speedometer failed. The speedometer was replaced when the car was still under warranty, so to be completely accurate, the original miles are 9,000 miles more than the current reading because of the speedometer replacement at 18,107 miles.
  • The engine, gearbox, brakes, shocks and transmission are all exceptional. The engine compression on each cylinder is 1-165psi, 2-170psi, 3-170psi, 4-167psi, 5-165psi, 6-167psi. The oil pressure at idle or 700 rpm (no choke and at full driving temperature)  is 40 pounds.
  • All new shocks have been installed and new springs in the rear.
  • Gear reduction starter, lightened flywheel, new clutch and spin on oil filter have been installed.
  • Does not overheat and runs cool. Exhaust manifolds were ceramic coated inside and out for longevity.
  • All gauges, instruments and switches work as they should.
  • An older Blaupunkt cassette radio was installed with an electric antenna.
  • The original floors are excellent.
  • The spare tire compartment is very clean and one of the nicest original boot compartments you will find on one of these.  There is a new spare chrome wire wheel and tire to match the other 4 new chrome wire wheels on the car.
  • The chrome is excellent on the car. New front and rear bumper seals were recently installed. The rest of the rubber on the car looks nice.
  • A new stainless steel exhaust system was also recently installed.
  • The brake system was gone through with new brake calipers and lines in the front and rear.
  • The seats were recovered at one time and we believe the carpets were replaced.
  • The steering wheel was recently polished and revarnished.  
  • Included are the original tools with a new tool bag/roll (the original is included as well) and the original Metallifacture jack, Thor Hammer and jack ratchet.
  •  The paint overall looks excellent a few minor flaws here and there, but still looks stunning.  It looks to be lacquer paint and still has beautiful depth. The car grabs attention where ever it goes.
  • Bridgestone 205 tires were installed by the previous owner.
  • All matching numbers car with Jaguar Heritage Certificate included.
  • We have a copy of the original title, original operation, maintenance and service handbook. In the back of this book is where the original owner kept a service log of all the work done to the car until he sold it in 1973. Also, the original periodic maintenance voucher book is included. In addition, the Jaguar maintenance chart and original tire manufacturer paperwork are included in the original owners pouch.
  • We also have the bill of sale from the first owner to the second owner. Furthermore, we have a letter from the original owner to the second owner to highlight some specific maintenance tips with this car and some of its idiosyncrasies as all classic Jaguars have them.
  • This is a Series I open head lamp car. The Chassis number 1E 34113 produced on January 10th 1967 (a car which we sold last year) was the very first Fixed Head Coupe produced for North America with open headlamps. All fixed head coupes made for North America from here on had open headlamps (glass covered headlamps were discontinued on North American cars). The first open two-seater with open headlamps for North America was 1E 14532.   This is referenced in the great Jaguar E-type Book Factory Original Jaguar E-type: The originality guide to 3.8, 4.2 and V12 models by Anders Ditlev Clausager (Jaguar Archivist). The Chassis Number on this Jaguar is 1E 34140 (27 numbers after the first Coupe produced with open headlamps). This car was made a week after the first open headlamp coupe was made.

    This is truly a very special car. These Series I Fixed Head Coupes are difficult to find like this one with low mileage and great history. In addition to be being rare and unique history, it is a great car to to drive anywhere, and have an absolute blast every single mile. Without a doubt, a great addition or start to any collection.

    Jaguar F-Type Checkered Flag edition marks 70 years of sports cars

    Mon, Oct 29 2018

    Jaguar's first sports car, the XK 120, debuted in 1948, right in the midst of Britain's postwar recovery efforts. Since then, the company has had decades of success building everything from lightweight roadsters to record-setting supercars. Currently, the automaker's performance lineup is led by the Jaguar F-Type coupe and roadster. To celebrate 70 years of building performance cars, Jaguar is releasing a new special edition, the F-Type Checkered Flag. Most of the upgrades are visual and are available on both coupe and convertible models. In addition to badges and logos on the rear bumper, headrests, kick plates and steering wheel, the cars will be fitted with brushed aluminum trim and black leather. The steering wheel will have a red center marker at its top. There are additional red and white accents throughout the rest of the car. The F-Type Checkered Flag will be available in three colors: Caldera Red, Fuji White or Carpathian Grey, all with a contrasting black roof. Jaguar F-Type Checkered Flag View 18 Photos Somewhat surprisingly, the Checkered Flag upgrades will only be applied to four- and six-cylinder models paired with the eight-speed automatic. Turbocharged four-cylinder cars make 296 horsepower, while the supercharged V6 models make either 340 or 380 horsepower. The 380 horsepower model can be equipped with all-wheel drive. The F-Type R Dynamic package (not the same as the V8-powered F-Type R) packs revised dampers for a smoother ride. Other general changes for the 2020 model year include revised dampers on the F-Type R coupe and convertible. The F-Type R gets the SVR's rear upper ball joint, rear knuckle and rear control arm. A rear camera and parking sensors are standard across the board. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

    Jaguar F-Pace, XE getting SVR treatment with supercharged V8

    Tue, Apr 19 2016

    The folks at Jaguar Land Rover's new Special Vehicle Operations division have been fast at work creating new SVR performance models. And they're not about to stop now. Two new Jaguar models are currently in the works, according to Car and Driver, both packing the company's long-serving and celebrated supercharged V8. First up is the F-Pace crossover, which currently tops out with a 380-horsepower supercharged V6. Slotting the bigger engine in under the hood with more than 500 horsepower on tap would go a long way toward living up to the name that suggests both speed and a correlation to the F-Type sportscar. But that's not all JLR's new skunkworks department has in store. Car and Driver reports work is also under way on a more powerful XE to take on the likes of the BMW M3 and Mercedes-Benz AMG C63. The automaker is reportedly yet to give it the green light, hemming and hawing over its environmental image, but we hope hotter heads, in this case, prevail. Jaguar's V8 engine is one of its most enduring powertrains and is approaching double the output it originally offered. The 4.0 introduced in 1997 packed 375 horsepower. The latest version in the F-Type SVR (and expected soon to slot into the Range Rover Sport SVR) displaces 5.0 liters and produces 575 supercharged horsepower. With that much muscle, the F-Pace SVR would overpower the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, BMW X5 M, and Mercedes-AMG GLE63, while the XE SVR would outgun the M3, Cadillac ATS-V, Alfa Romeo Giulia QV, and just about anything else in its class.

    Jaguar Classic's 3.8-liter engine block costs nearly as much as a new Jetta

    Wed, Jun 24 2020

    Jaguar is helping collectors restore its vintage models by resuming production of the 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine block it built between 1958 and 1968. Called XK, the straight-six originally powered half a dozen models (including the famous E-Type), and its modern recreation costs nearly as much as a new compact sedan. Wearing part number C22250, the cast-iron block is built to the original's specifications by Jaguar's Classic division, and it comes with a 12-month warranty. Sourcing a used block would likely be markedly cheaper than ordering a new one from the factory, but enthusiasts who value originality above all will appreciate the fact that it comes certificate of authenticity. Customers who send the company proof of vehicle ownership can even retain the serial number from the engine they're pulling out, though an asterisk will identify it as a replacement. Jaguar built the XK engine for several decades, but the 3.8-liter variant only remained in production for 10 years. It powered cars like the surprisingly quick XK 150 roadster, the stately Mark IX and early examples of the E-Type, though its displacement grew to 4.2 liters in 1964. As of this writing, only the 3.8-liter XK is available new. If the E-Type you're painstakingly restoring deserves nothing less than the best, or if you think a 3.8-liter block makes an awesome coffee table, you'll need to send Jaguar a check for GBP14,340 including taxes, a sum that represents approximately $17,800 at the current conversion rate. Enthusiasts will also need to source pistons, connecting rods, a crankshaft and a complete cylinder head, among many other parts, so the cost of a full rebuild will lie well beyond the $20,000 threshold. For context, Volkswagen charges $18,895 for an entry-level Jetta. Related Video:
