    Sellers comment:
    THIS 1964 XKE WAS A ONE OWNER CAR AND HAS BEEN IN A GARAGE ON BLOCKS FOR OVER 33 YEARS. IT DOES HAVE MATCHING NUMBERS AND DOES NOT HAVE RUST IN THE USUAL PLACES. THIS IS A COMPLETE CAR THAT HAS NOT BEEN MOLESTED, LIKE SO MANY E TYPES. THE CAR NEEDS TOTAL RESTORATION .THE BATT BOX IS STILL LIKE NEW THE BONNET DOES HAVE SOME DAMAGE TO THE FRNT, BUT WOULD NOT BE THAT DIFFICULT TO REPAIR. THE CAR STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL RADIO AND TOOL KIT ALONG WITH THE JACK. THE SPARE TIRE IS LIKE NEW. TRY TO FIND A CALIF BLACK PLATE CAR. THERE ARE JUST NOT THAT MANY AROUND. THIS WOULD MAKE AN EXQUISITE EXAMPLE WHEN FINISHED. THESE CARS ARE SELLING IN EXCESS OF 40K WHEN RESTORED. THIS IS A GREAT PLATFORM TO START WITH AND WOULD BE A VERY EASY PROJECT TO FINISH. ALL THE CHROME IS THERE AND GLASS IS GOOD.

    Advertised on carsales.com.au March 2014. Some contradictory information is included in the advertisement. For example, engine number is given as RA6627-9 which is a 3.8 litre number, but the written description states that the car is 4.2 litres. Asking price AU$175,000. Seller's description follows:
    "1964 JAGUAR E TYPE, REG: 14161H, CHASSIS N0: 890492, ENGINE NO: RA6627-9.
    $175,000 (Inc GST, Excl Govt Charges if Applicable)
    This exquisite 1964 MK 1 (sic) 4.2 E Type can only be described as automotive perfection. Whether you are a concours enthusiast or a classic driver, this vehicle will delight you. A full ground up restoration with body and paint to the highest quality in a glorious Hell blue has resulted in a car that is better than new and would be a stunning acquisition for any enthusiast. Dayton chrome wire wheels set off this beauty.
    Mechanically the car has had a full engine and differential rebuild (by Spiteri) with new clutch and alloy flywheel fitted. With triple Weber carburettors , alloy radiator and header tank with Spiteri extractors and exhaust system coupled with a 5 speed gearbox the performance is outstanding.
    With a full interior re-trim in matching mid grey along with air-conditioning both driver and passenger can enjoy the sensuous experience of this exquisite vehicle.
    TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
    ENGINE: 6 CYL OF 4.2L CAPACITY
    FUEL SYSTEM: TRIPLE WEBERS
    TRANSMISSION: 5 SPEED MANUAL
    SUSPENSION: GAZ ADJUSTABLE SHOCKERS
    BRAKES: VENTILLATED DISCS ,ALLOY CALLIPERS
    WHEELS: DAYTON 72 SPOKE WIRES "

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    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?
