1964 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3.8-Litre Semi-Lightweight FIA Competition Roadster with Hardtop

Goodwood Revival Collectors' Motor Cars and Automobilia

9 September 2023, 13:30 BST

Chichester, Goodwood

£150,000 - £175,000

Competition Roadster with Hardtop

Registration no. 5994 WK

Chassis no. 881848

• Restoration/build completed in 2020

• Steel monocoque; aluminium body

• Engine tuned by Sigma

• Current FIA HTP papers

This Semi-Lightweight incorporates a new steel monocoque, supplied by Martin Robey, while the engine has a cast-iron block and straight-port cylinder head, a specification that allows the car to run in most pre-'66 GT events. The aluminium body was hand built by an experienced technician, featuring an aluminium bonnet, doors, louvred hard top, rear wings, tail and louvred boot lid. Other noteworthy features include a limited-slip differential; twin fuel pumps; long-range fuel cell; adjustable shock absorbers; and an electronic rev counter, the latter supplied by Denis Welch Motorsport. The car is finished in the most attractive colour scheme of Old English White with blue stripes, similar to that of Briggs Cunningham's famous racing lightweight.

Acquired back in 2005 by the previous keeper , this car has had a slow build process as the owner was also restoring four other E-types. Final preparation and finishing touches were entrusted to Wren Sport, who recommended that the engine should be tuned by recognised specialists Sigma to improve power output. Sigma made a number of improvements following sessions on their rolling road dynamometer.

Other key features include: Lightweight specification radiator and header tank, provided by NAR, an oil cooler, front brake callipers from Jaguar Mark IX, upgraded front and rear suspension, mangoletsi inlet manifold with triple Weber 45 DCOE 9 carburettors, exhaust manifold and new exhaust system , a tillett driver race seat along with a trimmed lightweight passenger seat. A 'Custom Cages' roll cage, seat belts, fire extinguisher system and engine and battery cut offs. Further to this, a lightweight race battery has been fitted along with a lightweight alternator and high torque starter motor, coupled with electronic ignition with high performance HT leads. The body is fitted with lightweight specification bonnet side latches, with leather safety straps, and aluminium air ducts and scoops to front and rear brakes. It is also fitted with Perspex headlight covers and a set of Dunlop style aluminium E-Type lightweight wheels and spinners. The interior benefits from a set of front carpets and the transmission tunnel has been trimmed for aesthetics.

During the current vendors ownership the car has been made much more competitive. As a prominent and front running E-type racer the vendor decided to uprate the gearbox to a 4-speed race specification synchromesh gearbox. He and his team of mechanics have completely gone through the car. Having completed two days of intensive testing , and after uprating the exhaust system, and further rolling road testing, the car proved itself with a 1 minute 27.6 around Goodwood. FIA approved and road legal, with current HTP papers, this example is now ready for racing. With the original Briggs Cunningham car registered '5114WK', '5994WK' offered today is a fitting tribute at a fraction of the money. Let's go racing!
