This is a superb car in truly outstanding condition. In 1961 it started life as a Jaguar 'E' type 3.8 flat floor fixed head coupe in left hand drive format. It has been professionally converted to a right hand drive roadster but it really has been done so very well.
It is finished in British Racing Green with Beige trim and it has the manual four speed gearbox and we are informed that it drives very well indeed. The car should have secured a full M.O.T. by the time of the sale.
The quality of this car is exceptional and will overcome any doubts you may have about the conversion. It is the quality of the work done that matters - not the work that has been done.
