    After traveling over the world for a German company for more then 11 years I decided to start my own company. the up side is, that now I have my company up and running, I have time on my hands to finaly buy a proper car again! I enjoy driving it as much as I do working on it. In fact, right now it is reduced to a lot of parts in boxes..... Cant wait to take it on the road again next year (if all goes well) we have planned a trip trough Germany, France, Switserland, Italy and back trough Austria, Germany and home again (Holland) Good trip to try out that 5-speed on the German Autobahn and have some fun with the beemers!

    Beautiful Pale Primrose E-Type
    This 1968 Jaguar XKE roadster is colored in classic Pale Primrose Yellow. This vehicle is the result of a 7 year owner restoration. Restoration included: New Roby floor panels, boot well, and rocker panels. All of the exterior chrome was reconditioned in California. Front and Rear suspension is new and complete including a complete rear-end disassembly and rebuild. Brakes are new including new calipers and brake lines. The cooling system is new including a new radiator. This vehicle has been equipped with the triple SU carbs and has the K&N filters for performance. I have both the correct air assembly and the original twin Stromberg carbs and intake. I installed a new exhaust system which includes a header but I have the original porcelain manifolds. I converted the ingintion system to a high energy Mallory distributor and coil. I also added the new wire wheels and Pirellis and the shocks are CJ adjustable. The interior is new and features Connolly leather seats. The top is a stay fast top and was professionally installed along with the interior. This car runs fantastic and sounds beautiful. I have receipts for over $50k spent over the last 7 years. This is a very solid car and has been in North Carolina for over 30 years. This car is garage kept and will make someone a great toy.

    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
