Current bid US $10,100 reserve not met 9 bids 6 days left in auction, seller foreignaffairsmn, 42k miles.

Sellers description:
This particular 1972 Jaguar E-Type V12 2+2 is fresh out of long-term climate controlled storage! Registration tabs place the car last on the road in 2004. Engine/Transmission runs and drives but will need complete maintenance done due to its long-term storage. Mileage shows 42,741 which we believe to be correct. While some may chose to give it a re-spray, some may chose to leave the originality intact. The hood/body does have some paint cracking/chipping but could be presentable with a judicial touch-up and buffing.

1972 JAGUAR E TYPE SERIES 3
Will be UK registered with 1972 age related reg number, prior to purchase.
AUTOMATIC, POWER STEERING
CALIFORNIA CAR ALL ITS LIFE
ONLY 42,000 MILES
MOT & TAX EXEMPT
THE BODY WORK ON THIS CAR IS AMAZING, ALTHOUGH I ASSUME ITS HAVE HAD SOME PAINT WORK IN ITS LIFE, IT IS VERY HARD TO TELL WHERE ?, THERE IS SOME SMALL AREAS OF CRAZING, THIS IS THE PRIMER THAT HAS SHRUNK OVER THE YEARS, AND A FEW SMALL PAINT CHIPS, BUT OVERALL, IT HAS A GREAT SHINE, AND I WOULD LEAVE AS IS.
THE CAR IS TOTALLY SOLID AND THERE IS NO RUST ANYWHERE.
SEE PHOTOS OF THE FLOOR PANS AND BOOT AREA, 100% ORIGINAL FACTORY FINISH, THEY ARE LIKE NEW, ALMOST UNHEARD OF ON A E TYPE, AND THE MOST ORIGINAL I HAVE SEEN.
THE INTERIOR IS ORIGINAL AND HAS THE PATINA YOU WOULD EXPECT FOR A 46 YEAR OLD CAR, THE ONLY PART YOU MAY RE-TRIM, IS THE CENTRE ARM REST, AS IT HAS CRACKS IN THE LEATHER, WHERE IT HAS DRIED OUT.
THE CHROME IS ALL, VERY, VERY GOOD, AS ARE THE CHROME WHEELS.
THIS TRULY IS A VERY GOOD E TYPE, THAT CAN BE DRIVEN ON A DAILY BASIS.
IDEAL FOR TALL OR THE MORE SENIOR DRIVER, AS EASY TO GET IN AND OUT, POWER STEERING, AND AUTOMATIC, THEY WERE SLIGHTLY TALLER AND LONGER DOORS THAN THE PREVIOUS E TYPES.
THE ENGINE HAS FANTASTIC OIL PRESSURE, AND THE GEARBOX CHANGES UP AND DOWN EFFORTLESSLY.
