The fully documented photographic history detailing the extent and stages of the restoration together with its extensive history file have unfortunately been lost over the years, but the quality and full extent of the work is fairly evident from the excellent overall condition of the car.

Once fully restored and registered in the UK the car has sat in an air cocoon, with another 5 E-Types to keep it company, being started and given short runs regularly.

The car looks great and drives beautifully though it could probably do with a good long run to blow away a few cobwebs.

The Thruxton Retro Auction - Competition and Fast Road Cars, and Motorcycles

Lot 229

1966 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 2+2 Fixed Head Coupe

Estimate £42,000 - £46,000

Registration Number: UCA 151D

Chassis Number: TBA 

Recorded Mileage: TBA

- Subject of a comprehensive previous restoration

- UK example, one owner from 1990 - 2018

- Converted to triple Weber carburettors

Finished in Metallic Regency Red with a matching red leather interior and original full length Webasto-style sunroof, this very nice early RHD Series 1 2+2 benefits from a thorough older restoration, after which it was stored in a Carcoon as part of a larger six-car E-Type collection, and started/driven occasionally in order to keep its mechanical components in good order. The E-Type was with one owner from the 1990s, who restored the car in around 2000. The shell was stripped to bare metal, all components refurbished or replaced as required, then waxoyled throughout. The engine was converted to unleaded fuel and the gearbox rebuilt. Useful upgrades include an electric cooling fan, stainless header tank, also uprated Coopercraft brakes with copper brake pipes. In around 2018 the car went to a new owner in the UK, although due to him living overseas the car was again stored and sadly little used before his passing.

We can report the bodywork is very clean with the exception of one blemish on the rear wing, the interior is in super order, and the car breathes freely through a recently fitted set of triple Weber carburettors and stainless steel exhaust system. The E-Type sits on Dayton wire wheels, lighting is improved with the fitting of halogen headlights. A very attractive example, offered at a sensible estimate.
