Sellers description:
1963 Jaguar XKE Series 1 Coupe project...This car has a lot but still needs a lot...In nice condition for a car of its age this Coupe appears to have been unaffected by the elements like some older Jaguar projects. Very solid body panels, doors, floors, trunk area are almost completely rust free. There is almost no body area even close to being rust affected.

This Coupe still has its original Vin Tag on the car. It appears to still have the Original Steering Wheel, Dash Gauges, Body Panels, Wheels, (including the spare tire) glass. Comes with some manuals. The headliner, dash and door panels were restored a few years back and dont look too bad. A few modifications occured during last restore. Hairline crack in front windshield. Car is without the engine, (and components) transmission, carpet, most metal trim. It needs a lot but is VERY restorable...is VERY SOLID and MOSTLY ORIGINAL and is priced for a quick sale.

This is NOT a perfect wholly original Jaguar but then you could buy a PERFECT Jaguar replica instead of having the real thing. These are VERY HARD TO FIND....and is worth the asking price despite the issues with the car...

Should be able to make this a daily driver with normal effort and look sharp driving around this classic...OR restore with original Jaguar engine, tranny and components for top dollar.
