This impressive, single-family owned 1965 Jaguar 4.2L E-Type Series I Roadster is a remarkable matching-numbers original car. Presumed to be owned by a Hollywood celebrity, this XKE has not been molested or abused, and was very well kept and serviced by its previous owner. Equipped with an original tool kit, jack, knock off hammer, keys, and rare ladies foot rest on the passenger side, the roadster also features a nicely preserved Davis Radio Corp. "Le Chaperon" AM push-button radio, ready for those long summer drives! With a remarkable patina of originality throughout, and only needing some minor work on the top and a repairable dent on the driver's side door, this E-Type presents a great opportunity for the Jaguar purist to own an original, unmolested, and wonderfully preserved example. You can improve the car cosmetically if you wish, but remember that it's only original once!
