    Opening bid $30,000 reserve not met, no bids yet, 6 days left in auction. Sellers location Marina Del Rey, California. 75k miles.

    Sellers description:
    1970 Jaguar E-Type Roadster in Sable with Black Leather. One California owner from new (now 91 years old). Recently had around $6700 spent on servicing in 3 trips. This E-Type really drives very well: good synchros, brakes, motor, clutch etc. Paint is good but not perfect. Chrome is good but has a couple of scratches on the rear bumper (shown). No rust ever. Very nice engine bay with original paint on the space frame, all shielding is in place, ID number is on the front of the frame where it should be. 75,000 odd miles from new, lots of receipts, spare and jack.

    Opening bid $30,000 reserve not met, no bids yet 6 days left in auction. 81k miles. Car now in Watsonville, California.

    Sellers description:
    Offered for sale is a beautiful california (whole life) rust free 1970 E-Type Jaguar. I am selling this classic for my Dad. Car has had three long term owners all in california. He and I drive the car often and get compliments every time. Recent top, fuel pump, plugs, and valve cover gaskets. This is a very clean classic that you can drive and enjoy. It has minor paint chips and 1 paint bubble on the hood as shown in pics. Bubble not rust. The interior appears original and is in amazing shape for its age. We believe it had one repaint from original and was painted the same color. Chrome is good driver quality with some pitting and scratch in rt rear bumper wing. The car runs great and does not overheat.

    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?
