Description

Matching numbers
Fresh from a full respray
Full engine rebuild
Supplied new to USA

This left-hand drive, matching numbers E-Type Series II 4.2 Roadster is complete with its Jaguar heritage certificate. Imported last year from the USA, over £12,000 has been spent on the car including a high-end paint job.

Chassis 1R8641 was supplied new to British Leyland, New York, USA, on the 4th of April 1969 finished in Willow Green over a Suede Green interior and black hood. In 2020 the car was acquired by a well known motor car dealer in California from a gentleman in Virginia, our client quickly caught wind of this potential sale and purchased the car in California in the summer of 2020, it was imported to the UK on 1st of September. The car has been worked on by experts such as Vintage Classic and Prestige with parts being supplied by industry specialists S.N.G Barratt, SC Parts, Leamoco and RTL.

Offered for sale today this fantastic restored example, is mechanically turn-key. While the car was painted recently, our client was not pleased with the paint job and has booked the car in for a full respray starting this January, so the new owner can enjoy a freshly painted Jaguar E-Type!
