This E-Type Coupe was built at Jaguar during the spring of 1965. According to the chassis number, the car was completed as a left-hand drive model - the 291st example in the 4.2-liter series - and most likely delivered new to the US market. This E-Type has been sitting in a barn near Gaston, Oregon for decades, and although largely complete, will need both mechanical and cosmetic restoration to be roadworthy again. It should be noted, that the engine has been replaced at some point with another 4.2-liter unit. The dark blue exterior has dents and imperfections, while the red interior appears to be largely original, and is fitted with a lovely period radio. As desirable as these Series 1 E-Types are, this 'barn find' example is surely a restoration worth taking on.
