Current bid $25,000 reserve not met, 3 bids 6 days left in auction. 96k miles.

Sellers description:
This exceptional example was purchased by the current owner in 2003 from the original owners estate. The car had been sitting for a while, so the process of restoring the car mechanically was begun. Pretty much everything was rebuilt over the next few years-Brakes, Rear End, Clutch/Slave Cylinder, Suspension, Carburators, Gas Tank Reconditioned, New Aluminum Radiator Installed, U Joints replaced, New Head Gasket installed, Fuel Pump, Electronic Ignition Added, and more. Then last year the car was sent to a professional shop for repainting. As anyone who knows these cars is aware, it isnt until one disassembles an E type that one discovers the true condition of the body. This car was no different and the floor boards, left rear wheel well and the rockers were replaced with correct new panels from England. The Chrome was replated, New Wire Wheels installed with Red Line Radials, New Top and Boot, and all rubbers were replaced with correct parts. A new Stainless Steel Exhaust was installed. During this process the pesky copper Heater Lines were replaced with Stainless Steel lines and the heater core was rebuilt as well. This is a fully sorted car that runs and drives without fault- a car that can be pressed into immediate service without any concerns about reliability or hidden problems.

If you are looking for a well sorted Series II OTS I think you will be hard pressed to find a finer example or one with the history and provenance of this lovely car.

I purchased this 1970 E-type on September 27, 2012 in Indianapolis, In. I believe I'm the third owner. It is now fully restored and well sorted out. It is currently located in Rochester, MI. I would love to have more historical ownership data, if it exists.

Seller's description:

1970 Jaguar XKE Roadster-Concours-Quality Restoration (2011), JCNA Score: 998.1/1000

Signal Red with Black Leather, this Series II 4.2, 4 Speed Roadster has been beautifully restored and is ready to show. Enjoy the ownership and driving experience of this magnificent example of "rolling art". Prior to September of 2011, a full restoration was completed, and this stunning E-Type was presented at the Jaguar Club of North America (JCNA) Concours d'Elegance at Conner Prairie on September 17th, 2011. The Judging Score Sheets prove a remarkable, near perfect score of 998.1 out of a maximum possible 1000 points. Since its award-winning debut, this E-Type has seen less than 2,500 miles, driven exclusively to a small number of high-end shows. It remains in exceptional condition and offers a rare opportunity to own a Jaguar that has been both judged and preserved at the highest level. The receipts for the restoration, parts and maintenance go back to the late 1990's. In addition to the detailed Judging Sheets and the restoration and maintenance receipts mentioned, the documentation includes a copy of the Jaguar Heritage Production Record Trace Certificate. The Vehicle Identification number (Chassis Number) is 1R12522. The build date: 22 January 1970. Few automobiles reach the level of admiration and legacy that the Jaguar E-Type enjoys-and this 1970 XKE Series II 4.2 Roadster represents the pinnacle of that legacy. We welcome and encourage an inspection at our Showplace location in Troy Michigan.
