Listed for sale at GR Auto Gallery(www.grautogallery.com)
in Grand Rapids, Michigan. "We are pleased to present this outstanding example of the third generation E-Type roadster. Just out of a long term private collection, this 1974 XKE Series III Roadster is not only a wonderful example, sporting an older nut and bolt restoration, but also represents the end of an automotive styling era. Jaguar E-Types are arguably one of the most beautiful mass produced vehicles produced. The example offered here is no exception. Finished in classic Signal Red over Biscuit leather interior and sitting on factory wire wheels this Jaguar is powered by it's 5.4 liter V12, 4-speed transmission and bullet proof rear end. A recent mechanical rebuild and engine compartment restoration has just been performed on this beauty, the car performs flawlessly. 1974 was the last year for the XKE Jaguars, their elegance graced our planet for 13 production years. With only 7990 Series III roadsters over a 3 year period global demand out-paces production. An opportunity to acquire a piece of automotive jewelry." Mileage listed at 60,541 with an asking price of $59,900.
