Sellers description:
THIS IS A VERY NICE E-TYPE COUPE WITH FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING. YOU DON'T OFTEN SEE THE A/C ON THESE TWO SEAT COUPES. IT IS MUCH MORE COMMON TO SEE A/C ON THE 2+2 VERSIONS. THIS CAR IS RUST FREE AND RUNS AND DRIVES VERY GOOD. WE HAVE FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF PAST BODY DAMAGE. IT HAS BEEN INSPECTED AND SERVICED IN OUR SHOP. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE ENGINE HAD LESS THAN 200 MILES SINCE BEING REBUILT. WE DID A FINAL VALVE ADJUSTMENT ON IT AND ALL INDICATION IS THAT THE ENGINE INDEED WAS FRESH. OIL PRESSURE IS EXCELLENT AND THE COMPRESSION NUMBERS ARE 155, 160, 160, 155, 165 AND 160.
