Sellers description:
I pulled this Factory Black 1963 E type Roadster from a local storage building after she was parked high and dry since the mid 80's, incredibly with a new battery, carb rebuild, soleniod and starter rebuild she fired up straight away with fuel poured in the fuel bowls (she will need a new fuel pump and the gas tank installed and brake hydraulics rebuilt to drive) but she sounds sweet! The family of the deceased owner swear that the mileage of 17,625 is correct as she is a 2 owner car, he parked it up years ago to do a full concours restoration but never finished her, so it could be true??? But here is what I do know, this car has very nice RUST FREE sheet metal with NO RUST or Bondo and she is matching numbers from front to back and she is a very easy restoration project as there is no welding to mess with! The trim was not on the car when I bought her, so we put it back on her so that you can see what is missing and it's basically very little, this Jag is 99% complete and of course comes with a clear title. Study the pictures. NO RESERVE.

Interestingly the car has a straight rear bulkhead and flat floor - has it been rebodied ?

Its accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate states that left-hand drive chassis number '878068' was despatched on 14th September 1962 bound for Jaguar Cars, New York. The original colour scheme was Opalescent Bronze with black interior trim and matching hood, while the E-Type's first owner is listed as Tenafly Playhouse Inc.
We are advised that, when purchased in 2011, the car had a believed genuine total of 17,625 miles on the odometer. Over the last three years the E-Type has been undergoing a full restoration including a strip down; replacement of body panels where necessary; reconditioning of the engine, drive line, steering and suspension; renewing, re-plating and polishing the brightwork; full interior re-trim; new hood and a re-spray.
Representing a wonderful opportunity to acquire a fully restored example of the Jaguar E-Type in its earliest and purest form, the car comes with road fund licence to May 2015, MoT to April 2015 and V5C registration document.
