Sellers description:
1963 Jaguar XKE Series One Roadster, restoration project, matching numbers. Car needs full restoration, the previous owner started to restore the car 10 years ago and that is as far as it went.

Floors were replaced but not done well. If you want a nice driver or show car they will need to be redone. The paint looks decent but it will need to be repainted, there are scratches and defects. The engine was taken apart, as far as I know new main bearings were installed. The cylinder head had new valve guides, and valves to run on unleaded fuel.

As far as we know the car appears to be mostly complete. Will need a windshield and the lower chrome under the windshield. Will need the hinges and springs that are located on the bonnet. Car has some rust by the footwell.

Some of the ears on the exhaust manifold are broken, will need to replaced.

Previous owner had cut the trunk around the gas tank filter for some reason.

The car is sold "as is".

The car needs full restoration. Car is sold with bill of sale , GA registration, and a GA DMV letter explaining it is a non title state.

This 1963 Series 1 E-Type has recently benefitted from a comprehensive, professional restoration by Jaguar professionals. The matching-numbers car is presented in a spectacular color combination of White over Red, with a Black convertible soft top. The E-Type has had over $200,000 worth of restoration work performed, and includes many new parts throughout; during the restoration process, the car was stripped to bare metal, metal finished, fitted, primered sealed, painted, wet sanded and buffed to the beautiful finish you see today. In addition, the trimmers at Classic Showcase made a custom-tailored interior in the correct and proper materials. The car's systems were gone through and the work included rebuilding the engine, transmission, and rear end. The Roadster stands in spectacular condition, and is ready to be shown at your favorite Concours event, or may be simply driven and enjoyed along your favorite road or highway. The car comes complete with a set of Concours quality tools, knock off hammer, jack, owner's manual and complete documentation and receipts for the restoration work performed. This E-type has many nice features that collectors look for, and presents a fantastic opportunity to own one of the most coveted classic Jaguars ever made.
