    French title
    Châssis n° 888569

    - Complete restoration
    - Series 1 3.8-liter version of the iconic E-Type
    - Very nice presentation
    - Delivered new in Germany

    This Jaguar E-Type coupe was delivered new by Frankfurt distributor Peter Lindner, to U.S. Air Force Colonel J A Hennesson, who was then residing in Germany. It was probably taken back by him to the United States. The current owner acquired the car in 2005. An enthusiast of English cars, he wanted E Type 3.8 litre to be perfect so he embarked on a very thorough restoration. The photographic record of restoration, very detailed, shows that the chassis was completely exposed, the mechanical refurbished, the undercarriages redone, the interior completely restored.
    Invoices show all parts acquired and the dismantling and the rebuilding of the engine and the gearbox, the revision of the rear deck, the dynamo, the instruments, mounting of a new heater, front brake calipers of four pistons, exhaust, repair of chrome, etc. The parts invoices alone totals more than € 30,000, and our collector spent over 1,500 hours of his time restoring the car. In addition to improvements in the braking, cooling was also addressed by the installation of a Kenlowe fan. Seats were changed to that from the E Type 4.2 liter version as they were more comfortable. Painted a Warwick Grey (Jaguar grey from the Series 2) with burgundy interior, it is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Jaguar Heritage. The Series 1 coupe is considered the purest of the E Types, what with its exceptional line, and this is one with very high level of restoration.

    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
