Advertised for sale on carsales.com.au 19 November 2022. Seller’s address is given as Broadbeach, Queensland. Seller’s description (summarised and paraphrased) follows:

Completed on 24th October 1969, chassis P1R42943BW was supplied to inventor William C Kennedy. Taken off the road during the late 1990s, spent almost twenty years in store with an Ohio-based restoration company.  Upon William’s death in 2019, it was sold and imported to Australia.  A Jaguar specialist, the vendor, claims to have spent the past three years refurbishing this car.

Finished in a rich Sable brown with complimentary Beige leather upholstery, we estimate that the work would have cost in the region of $150,000AUD had it been carried out by a ‘big name’ restorer. Indeed, the seller informs us that he dares not count-up the man hours which have gone into the project. As denoted by the rare VIN, BW for Borgs Warner designation, and P for power steering, it has been Factory fitted with air conditioning, twin SU carburetors, power steering, BW automatic transmission and original wire spoke wheels. Starting readily upon inspection and running very sweetly, this drop dead gorgeous E-Type is understandably described by the seller as being in ‘excellent’ condition with regard to its engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork. Offered for sale with authenticity certificate verifying its one of eighty-one ever produced and Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate verifying its matching numbers claim, and a large quantity of bills/receipts for work completed.

Yeah, Looks like the car has also been listed in the US as well, price fluctuations seem to be due to some prices in AUD and some in USD. Trying to get a hold of this seller is hard to get a hold of I think they work internationally. After two weeks, when they finally called me back I had bought something else..they were travelling in Dubai, getting on a jet. Definitely not motivated to sell I guess?? Looks like a beauty of a car…a rare one indeed.
