Seller's description:

1969 JAGUAR XKE COUP

Classic & Beautiful Restoration!

This beautiful Jaguar XKE Coupe at Sports Car Company is finished in dark blue paint and a light grey interior. It is a truly beautiful example that has spent time in Arizona and California.

Jaguar XKE coupes are very sought-after models, as coupes are very difficult to find.

It has had a beautiful and complete restoration which included the mechanical, engine, transmission, suspension, and exhaust systems. The car was taken completely apart, stripped down to the metal, and block sanded to very straight.

Each panel was repainted to a very high quality in the original factory color blue and put back together.

Also included in this restoration was the replacement of rubbers, gaskets, and moldings, as each was replaced with new. The chrome bumpers and wire wheels were all re-chromed.

The interior was restored with the finest light grey leather.

This gorgeous car not only looks great but drives great.

Lot #95040

This 1969 Jaguar XKE is a Series II coupe that is finished in dark blue over gray leather and has been fitted with a Series I-style clamshell hood and headlight covers. Power is provided by a 4.2-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Additional equipment includes triple SU carburetors, a tubular exhaust manifold, 15″ wire wheels, and a cassette stereo. The car was reportedly refurbished during previous ownership and was acquired in October 2022 by the selling dealer. This XKE is offered in La Jolla, California with a clean Arizona title. Additional work is said to have included re-chroming the bumpers along with replacing the weather seals and other rubber gaskets. Additional equipment includes bullet-style side mirrors mounted on the fenders, tinted windows, and wrap-around bumpers with overriders.

Knock-off 15″ wire-spoke wheels have been re-chromed and are wrapped in 195/65 Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S tires. The selling dealer states the shocks and suspension bushings were replaced and the steering rack was rebuilt during prior ownership. Braking is provided by four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rears.

The cabin features bucket seats that have been re-trimmed in gray leather with blue piping, and matching upholstery extends to the center console and armrest. Amenities include a cassette stereo, three-point seat belts, and an analog clock. A wood-rimmed steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline, while auxiliary gauges located centrally on the dashboard display battery voltage, oil pressure, water temperature, and fuel level. The six digit odometer shows 18k miles, though total mileage is unknown. According to the seller, the gauges were refurbished during prior ownership.

The 4.2-liter inline-six is equipped with triple SU carburetors, a tubular exhaust manifold, a dual exhaust system, twin cooling fans, and a battery cutoff switch.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.

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?
