Car offered at:

bringatrailer.com/listing/1964-jag-series-1-3-8l-e-series-hard-top/

Complete VIN on this car is J64888586.

Sellers description:

BaT Essentials

Lot #265

Location: Chevy Chase, Maryland

Chassis: 888586

49,754 miles

Matching-numbers Series 1

Photo documented restoration

Fully rebuilt drivetrain

All new paint and interior

Over $70k in restoration receipts

Private Party or Dealer: Private Party

This 1964 Jaguar E-type SI 3.8 FHC is a matching numbers example purchased by the seller from a Jaguar specialist shop in Southern California 2006, where it had been sitting for some time. The seller commissioned a comprehensive frame up restoration over the next four years, with over $70k in receipts. Using only high-quality parts sourced primarily from XKs Unlimited and Moss Motors, the car wears all new paint, new interior, a professionally rebuilt engine and transmission, and much more detailed below. The restoration process is photo-documented and the car is said to have near-perfect cosmetics and completely sorted mechanicals. With less than 100 miles since completion, the seller says the car is ready to be used on tours and driven regularly.

The car was very straight and complete when purchased in 2006. Paint was stripped and it was found that some bodywork had been repaired poorly in the past. This is was fixed and what little rust was found was repaired, the seller opting to remove some previous small patches and weld in new metal.

A professional repaint in what is believed to be the car's original British Racing Green is beautiful and done to a very high standard. Wheels are new 72 spoke Dayton knock-offs. All chrome is new or re-plated including bumper blades, overriders, and motif corner extensions.

Inside, the car received a new biscuit interior with components sourced from XKs Unlimited and Original Specification Jaguar Interior in Muncie, Indiana. A major interior kit including new seats, carpet, door panels, headliner and more was installed--see before shots in the below gallery for a clearer idea of the extent of work. Smiths gauges were rebuilt and all lights, switches and electrical accessories were gone through.

Work was very thorough down to heater control cables, choke lamp assembly, trunk luggage chrome bits, 14 shifter rivets, striker plates, wood panels for spare tire well, and more. Early features like toggle switches and aluminum dash highlight the finished cockpit, and the odometer's recorded 49k miles are believed to be an accurate lifetime total. A working retro AM/FM radio is a nice touch.

The engine was completely rebuilt with all systems disassembled and checked. The cylinder head was pressure tested and found to be leaking, so an original E-Type cylinder head was sourced. It was rebuilt and resurfaced with new valve seats, tappet retainers, and a heavy duty racing head gasket. All new gaskets were installed, and the car received a new starter motor, water pump, cap and rotor, and new cooling hoses.

Work continued with a rebuilt generator, new voltage regulator, replaced front crankshaft seal, belt tensioner and pulley, replaced engine timing cover assembly, new thermostat, new rack and pinion boots, and electronic distributor. The car is freshly serviced with new spark plugs, new fluids, and a new battery. All Series 1 E-Types have great exhaust notes, and stainless steel headers and exhaust give this one throaty vocals.

Other mechanical work involved a full rebuild of the transmission, fitment of a new clutch, rebuilt SU carburetors, new tie rod ends and much more documented in 30 plus pages of shop invoices, receipts and correspondence viewable below, totaling more than $70,000 in parts and labor. The car is fully sorted and ready to drive.

Sold by Gallery Aaldering of Brummen in February 2021. Seller's description below
www.gallery-aaldering.com/collection/jaguar-e-type-3-8-series-1-matching-numbers ...

A very nice 3.8 litre Series 1 E Type Coupe supplied to New York on 4th May 1963 but only registered in 1964. This is the Series 1 with sought after alluminium dashboard. Over four years from 2006 to 2010 this E Type underwent a full full restoration and mechanical overhaul. Since then it has only covered 2000 miles. It has been meticulously serviced and maintained in that period. It is finished in British Racing Green with a Tan leather interior trim.

The beautiful bodywork is as straight as an arrow with nicely fitting body panels. The chrome and paintwork are excellent. She has retaIned her original matching numbers 3.8 litre triple carburettors engine. We have known this particular E Type for many years. It naturally comes with a Jaguar Heritage certificate confirming all the relevant figures. In short a fully restored E Type Coupe in BRG!

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?
