This is a very nice 1967 Jaguar E Type Convertible , appears to be a very late series I ( no covered headlights but with 3 carbs and correct dash toggleswitches and placement of taillights I've been told. ) with a nice colour scheme too : Primrose Yellow with biscuit interior ! Beautiful car , no rust anywhere to be seen , and she has a very straight body. Looks like an older . prof. frame-off , or combination of that and a sound , original car. All chrome including bumpers is very nice. The only pitting is on top of the taillights. Softtop and boot are like new. This car can be a showcar with very little effort ; just needs a prof. detailing , e.g. in the enginebay , like polishing the valvecovers etc. Paint is very strong , has a nice shine , and the leather interior is in excellent shape, nice and soft , no cracks or tears anywhere. No rust in the trunk either , or the underside and the spare is a chrome wirewheel also. Showing a very believable low miles ,( 50 K ) which are currently marked as " actual miles " on the title. The engine runs very strong and sounds great ; we just had all 3 carbs rebuilt , and there's no noise or smoke coming from the engine at all.. I have not driven it very far yet , as I'm over 6 ft. tall and too big to really fit in it , but I did drive her a small distance , enough to know that the clutch and brakes work fine too. Again , my expertise is more in big American pre-war cars so I'm not going to pretend I know a lot about Jags. However , I do know enough about cars to be able to honestly tell you this IS a very nice car all around. Check my feedback on eBay , and you'll see I give honest descriptions on hi-dollar cars as well as lowerpriced ones. These E-Types have been appreciating steadily , and they should ; people feel they are a great looking and driving car. I've priced this car competitively ; I'm going on a roadtrip very soon , and the less cars I have in my Florida warehouse during hurricane season , the better ! Now , I've been asked to look at some no's on the car , so here goes : The v.i.n. plate is on the car and looks to be all original. the carno. ( also on chassis of course) is 1E 15928. On the head of the engine it says 7E1732-9. On the vinplate , the engine no. is 7E13989-9 , so the head must have been replaced at one time. I've looked on the side of the engine , and the only no. I could find sofar is stamped / casted in the block , and it is C28200FF. Hope that helps for you no. folks. As always , I encourage anyone interested to come out and inspect the car before you buy , or at least send someone knowledgable about the car. THIS IS A VERY NICE CAR !!! You can be comfortable buying her , I've been in business here in ft.Lauderdale for over 26 years . I own this car , it's been paid for and I have clear title.

This car should not be classified as a Series 1, but as Series 1.5 per the JCNA '68 Judges' Guide, page 2, based on the OTS, LHD Build records. The Series 1 ended at 1E15888. Your xkedata.com website has also confirmed the same information in the "About the XKE" section under "Models", showing the differences between the 4.2 Series 1 and the Series 1.5. This car is a Series 1 1/2.

This is a, excellent running, driving, and looking late series 1 Etype roadster that does not have a rattle or hint of rust and can be driven with confidence. It has been entered in multiple Jaguar JCNA concours events and most recently scored 9.984, and it is driven to the events... This car is currently in Columbus, Ohio.
