Sellers description:
This car is in impeccable conditions and was acquired from the original owner by the 2nd owner in 2013. The car was always stored in a heated storage garage in Salt Lake City, Utah. The original owner put approximately 80,000 miles on the car before having a ground up restoration done to the car by two well known restoration shops. The mechanicals were done by Jaguar Expert Walt Osborn of Vintage Jag Works presently in Blackfoot, Idaho and formerly of Salt Lake City. The cinnamon tan interior is perfect, but what was done to it is unknown, however the leather seats are original but in perfect condition, body & paint work was done by Troy Lundquist of Troy Lundquist Restorations, Sandy, Utah who has done work for many prominent people in Utah including John Huntsman.
Per The Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate included, it was originally Sable Brown and was changed to British Racing Green when it was restored. It was then driven approximately 4,000 miles before acquired by the 2nd owner who has driven it approximately 500 miles.
As the car hadn't been driven for approximately 6 months the 2nd owner had the following work done in 2013: Radiator re-cored, new hoses installed, water pump replaced, speedometer rebuilt by Nisonger Instruments of NY, Carbs needles and seats installed to stop gas leaks, new battery terminals and hold down frame was installed. Original radio was repaired to accommodate an iPod with connector as parts were not able to be located for a full radio repair. The 4.2 Liter six cylinder engine was rebuilt and the pollution equipment removed and Triple SU side draft carburetors installed but it is unknown if they were on the car originally. It has a 4 speed synchromesh transmission that operates perfectly and was likely rebuilt during restoration. Included with the car are, a California interior car cover, 2 new clamp on side mirrors, the original owner's manual, the original jack and case in perfect condition, lead hammer & knock off ring.
All numbers were confirmed as matching per the JDHT Certificate & by a Jaguar expert as confirmed by his pictures that are available. The car drives perfectly even at high speeds. The tires although appear to be almost new and probably only have less than 5,000 miles on them are 10+ years old which is approximately when the restorations were completed. The five tires are mounted on 5 new stainless and chrome wire wheels and the spare has never been on the ground. The car was appraised by Pinnacle Car Appraisers in 2013 for over $70,000.
It Won a Jaguar class award in August 2014 (3rd Place) at the Classic Sports Card Show in Park City, UT against stiff competition of many classic Jaguars from the Wasatch Mountain Jaguar Register, the Utah Chapter of the JCNA. 1st Place went to an off frame restored 1957 XK 140 DHC and 2nd Place went to an XKE OTS.

For sale in Bonhams auction at Scottsdale, 15 January 2015

US$ 55,000 - 75,000
£35,000 - 48,000
To be sold without reserve
According to this E-Type's Heritage Trust Certificate, it was built at the Browns Lane Jaguar works on October 8, 1969. Denoted as a left hand drive Series 2 Fixed Head Coupe, the E-Type was finished in Sable over Cinnamon interior trim, and fitted with a manual transmission. A US market example, the E-Type made its way to the British Leyland distributor in New York, where it would be sold to its first owner.
Remarkably, according to the vendor, the E-Type is said to have remained with its original owner, an architect, from 1969 until 2013. At this time, the consignor discovered the E-Type in careful storage in a heated garage in Salt Lake City, Utah and was able to negotiate its purchase. Its long-term owner, Mr. Robert Halander, is said to have driven the Jaguar about 80,000 miles over the course of the its lifetime before deciding circa 2004 to complete a ground-up restoration, this work being entrusted to two well-known restoration establishments.
Jaguar expert Walt Osborn of Vintage Jag Works was retained for mechanical aspects of the restoration, while body and paintwork was performed by Troy Lundquist Restorations of Sandy, Utah.
During restoration, the decision was made to paint the Jaguar in the patriotic hue of its British racing forebears, that being British Racing Green of course. This neatly complements the superb cinnamon interior, a most fitting color combination for the model. Brightwork appears to have been re-chromed, while the Jaguar's matching numbers 4.2-liter straight six engine is said to have been rebuilt.
After restoration was complete, the Jaguar was driven about 4,500 further miles by its long-term owner before being sold to its current owner, who in 2013 completed a great deal of additional mechanical sorting. The radiator was re-cored, water pump replaced, speedometer rebuilt, while triple SU carburetors were installed.
Offered with its original owner's operating handbook, jack, and knock-off hammer, as well as two new clip on side mirrors, the Jaguar has most recently been a Jaguar class award recipient at local Concours. Resplendent in British Racing Green, it presents as an excellent example of the late six-cylinder E-Type Coupe, a model that looks like a great bargain today compared to its Series I predecessors.

1969 Jaguar E-Type SII Fixed Head Coupe
Chassis No. 1R27025
Engine No. 7R7969-9
Stunningly Presented SII 2-Seater Coupe
Fully Documented 2-Owner car from New
Numbers-Matching 4.2 Litre as per Jaguar Heritage Trust
Desirably Equipped with Manual Transmission in Striking Colors
Proven Concours Class Winner
Truly one of the best Jaguar E-Type coupes we have ever had the privilege to offer.
1R27025 was completed at the Browns Lane Jaguar works on October 8, 1969 as a US market example, distributed through the British Leyland handler in New York. According to the previous and second caretaker, this E-Type is said to have remained with its original owner, an architect, from 1969 until 2013. Carefully stored in a heated garage by its long-term owner Mr. Robert Halander, clocking about 80,000 miles over the course of its lifetime before deciding in 2004 to commission a ground-up restoration entrusted to two well-known restoration establishments.
Jaguar expert Walt Osborn of Vintage Jag Works was retained for mechanical aspects of the restoration, while body and paintwork was performed by Troy Lundquist Restorations of Sandy, Utah. The Jaguar's original leather upholstery and trim were carefully preserved rather than restored and highly compliment the exterior's British Racing Green. The bright work was also re-chromed, while the matching numbers 4.2-liter straight six engine was rebuilt. After restoration was complete, the car was driven about 4,500 additional miles by its life-long owner before it was acquired by the second caretaker.
Offered with its original owner's operating handbook, Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate, jack, and knock-off hammer, this Coupe has most recently received a Jaguar class win and presents as an exceptional example of the late six-cylinder XKE. The stances of this car is truly breathtaking with an abnormally laser straight body/panel fit, high quality paint, expertly detailed engine bay and a show standard undercarriage. The driving feel is as one would imaging, sporty, tight and very responsive. Overall this is a very "dialed in" turn-key example.
