Sellers description:
1967 Series 1 Jaguar XKE Roadster. This car was just restored by XK Unlimited here in Souther California to the highest of standards. This beautiful roadster has always been a local Southern California car and was the perfect candidate for its extensive 3 and a half year full and total restoration. It is a complete numbers matching car including its original color of Primrose over black. Primrose is a gorgeous pale yellow, reminiscent of the era in which this car was built, and shows the cars lines like few other colors can. XK Unlimited is very well known and respected for the quality of their restorations and their attention to detail. Simply turn the key on and press the starter button and this car fires immediately an idles so sweet. The sound of these cars cannot be replicated. One of the finest things about this particular example is how laser straight the body panels are and with gaps way beyond factory spec. The hood fits spectacularly well which is not only a testament to the restoration, but to the car prior to being restored. It literally drives like a modern day sports car but with that feel only a series 1 roadster can deliver.

Auction description:
Hilton Head
1967 Jaguar E-Type Series I 4.2 Roadster
Estimate: $175,000 - $200,000
Chassis no. 1E13621
4.2-liter, 265-hp twin cam inline six-cylinder
Upgraded to five-speed manual transmission
Widely regarded as most desirable E-Type spec
Restored from ground-up by marque specialist
Black-plate California car
Backed by a a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate
"Wonderfully honest and usable"
This beautiful 1967 4.2 Open Two-Seater, (Jaguar parlance for roadster) is a very fine car with its correct engine backed up with a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate. An original black-plate California car, it is finished in attractive Primrose yellow with a black leather interior and correct black vinyl top. It was restored from the ground up to a very high standard by the renowned restoration shop at XKs Unlimited in California. It is simply beautiful and is ready to be thoroughly enjoyed. This is the most desirable specification for an E-Type: the iconic covered headlamps, the deliciously torquey 4.2-liter engine and the magnificent drop-top bodywork. Chromed wire wheels with knock-offs also adds to the prestige. It has been restored to a wonderfully honest and usable standard, sensibly upgraded with a five-speed transmission and an alloy radiator to aid in cooling. Panel fit is very good, paint quality is gorgeous, and all chrome trim is beautifully restored and expertly fitted. The black interior has been restored using the correct materials throughout. Leather seats are just slightly broken in and delightfully inviting, with the cockpit rounded out by the iconic three-spoke steering wheel and a period-correct radio in the dash, which features full instrumentation and an aircraft-like bank of toggle switches. Performance is strong, with an addictive howl from the 4.2-liter twin cam. Strong four-wheel disc brakes bring the fun to a halt in the correct manner and the suspension has been perfectly set up by XKs Unlimited. This is a very fine restoration that would make a seriously good event car while at the same time be welcomed at a British car show or concours event. The Series I E-Type is the cornerstone of many car collections and is considered to be a must-have for any fan of classic sports cars. This fine example is sure to satisfy collector and driver alike.
