Sellers description:
Barn Fresh" 1974 Jaguar XKE. My friend is the second owner of this car and has owned it since 1974, he bought it from a gentleman in Barrington Il with only 6,000 miles on it. The car currently has only 27772 miles on it. The car was put away in 1989 and sat stored in a barn, covered up and stored with a lot of mothballs and tin foil. The result is a time capsule of sorts. The owner of this car is very particular about the care of his cars and can promise that this car was waxed on a weekly basis when it was on the road. This can be seen in nice, original paint and chrome that is in great shape. There is dirt and patina all over the car but in general the car is in great shape. There is NO body rot of any sort on the car. We've gone over it pretty carefully and it's a great example of an original SOLID XKE. We took a couple minutes to clean up the bezel around the passengers side headlight and the chrome cleaned up like new. The bumpers, windshield surround and all the other bright work will clean up the same and will look great! There is no pitting or corrosion on any of the paint, just some dirt. The paint is in good original condition. Again, there is some patina to it and small nicks here and there but in overall amazing condition for a 37 year old car. The interior is in decent condition. The seats are presentable, with a little bit of cleaning and the door panels, the back seat and the dash are all in great condition. There are no cracks in the dash or nasty surprises. The soft top will need to be replaced. The car does come with the original, removable hard top in black and in similar condition as the rest of the car.
We haven't touched the car mechanically at all, simply moved the car from the barn to a garage. This is a low miles original motor but will need to have some maintenance done on it in order to get in running condition. Things typical of a car which has sat for 22 years, R&R of some hoses, seals, fluids, plugs, wires, etc will more than likely need to be done.
For a collector this is a rare opportunity for someone to grab an all original, rock solid, unmolested example of the last year of the famous 12 cylinder XKE. This car could be a simple clean up, light restoration project and you'd have a great, all original car, something almost unheard of in 2011.
The car is located in NW Indiana and is available for inspection or viewing upon appointment.
