Gearbox EJ5651 from 1E11886 advertised for sale Ebay UK, 7 October 2020, asking GBP£2,950. Located in NR Bridgnorth. Seller’s description follows: “This gearbox was acquired some time ago and its exact provenance is not known. I have removed the selector lid to check the condition of the internal components and there does not appear to be any physical damage to the gears. However, in view of the length of time it has been in storage, I would recommend it should be thoroughly checked over before re-commissioning”

Dispatched on 17 November 1965 this exceptional Series 1 E Type 4.2 Roadster was purchased by the present owner in 2014 from E Type UK. It was repatriated from the United States by them in need of refurbishment. They completely restored it to a high standard to the owner's specification. Works included 5 speed gearbox with a high top gear for continental touring, uprated cooling system, 123 ignition, gas shock absorbers, uprated front calipers, thicker anti roll bar for improved cornering and poly bushed suspension throughout.

In 2019 the engine was rebuilt by Tom Barclay Racing. Finished in the desirable colour scheme of Opalescent Silver Blue with Dark Blue hide and a Dark Blue mohair hood, the car formed part of a small collection of cars. Since purchasing this car some 12 years ago it has been used for continental trips around Europe with around 10,000 miles notched up by the current owner. One of the very best 4.2 E Type roadsters available.
