Car to be at Christie's auction 8/06
www.christies.com/promos/aug06/1744/overview.asp

Lot 16: 1962 JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES I 3.8 ROADSTER
Exceptional Motor Cars, Christies (17th August 2006)
Overview
Dark blue with tan leather interior
Handsomely presented in the attractive yet contrasting combination of dark blue with tan interior, this Series I example with the aluminum dashboard and covered headlights is reputed to be a matching numbers E-Type. An ideal driving candidate, this is an older restoration that has been recently refreshed to a very high standard both externally and internally - even the gas tank has been refinished and it sports period correct Michelin XZX tires on its wire wheels. The engine bay in particular is spectacularly detailed and the interior is phenomenal, trimmed in a caramel-toned tan leather, and also boasts a period-correct radio. Panel fit is very good, as is the brightwork and having been treated to a recent, thorough service it is reported to drive particularly well and the infamous 'Moss' gearbox shifts smoothly. Freshly repainted to show standards, this is a wonderful early example of one of motoring's archetypal steeds.

Car on ebay advertised by Sports Classics UK

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143689959399

For sale 1962 flat floor e type roadster. (electric conversion/track day car) Price 40,000

Various pictures and documents available.

A bit of a story with this car! the car is on its way to us from Canada, it has a Canadian title with the chassis number 876593 and a letter from Jaguar Heritage to the customer confirming he can use that number to register it in Canada.

We believe that derives from a second hand engine frame as there is no VIN plate.

There is a body number on the car which is clearly correct and original and Jaguar Heritage may be sympathetic towards giving the original chassis number for this as I am sure they would like to see a lost car returned to the roads.

Body number is R2935 which makes it late 1961/early 1962.

The car is currently fitted with a straight six Ford engine. The Canadian owner had ambitions of purchasing a correct engine and transmission for the car but fitted this engine in the interim whilst he got around to it.

Fitting this rather than a V8 allowed the engine to be modified rather then the car itself as not to cause to much disturbance to the engine frame. It is a complete running driving car.

The options with the car are varied, try and get her back on the road with a replacement engine and box (we have a unit available), Use it as a donor car to restore a particularly rusty project (body shells are 40K alone), a low cost capital base to build an electric e type, create a track day car to your own build.

We have one or two project cars of our own which we would consider using this car as part of our build.

The car is currently in Canada awaiting shipping and will be with us in 4 weeks.
