Auction description:
1961 Jaguar XKE Series 1 Convertible "Flat Floor"
Auction Estimate $200,000 - $250,000
No expense spared restoration
Rare early 'Flat Floor' production
Ideal color combination
This beautiful Carmen Red E-Type roadster was recently restored to a very high level. The interior is lined with hand-stitched black leather and bright aluminum trim. The aircraft-type switchgear and gauges combined with a beautiful timber-rimmed steering wheel gives the driver a cockpit type sensation. An important feature of this car is that this is a very early flat floor version of which only a few thousand were made. This is first year of this impressive and honored sports car design, and most certainly holds a place in history.
