1974 Jaguar E-Type E-type

Jaguar E-Type E-type (1974)
for sale

Price: US $12,100.00

Description:

Available here is a 1974 Jaguar XKE V-12 roadster. It is an excellent vehicle that drives out as well as it shows. A very flashy color combination, along with the smooth power of the V-12 and 4-speed transmission, makes this Jaguar a pleasure to drive.  BODY: Bright red exterior paint that is in wonderful condition. The car was purchased out of the southern California area where I believe the car was painted. Estimated that the car was painted about 15 years ago but that is unknown. The chrome and trim is in excellent condition and shows well. Lights, glass, and rear window are all in very nice shape. The body is very solid, there is no rust that I am aware of on the car. Also, no known accidents. With all this being said, this is NOT a 100 point car. The restoration was believed to be 15-20 years ago but is undocumented, therefore I do not know the age of all areas of the car. There is some wear on the car in certain areas. I've tried to show all those areas in the pictures I have. Several additional pictures that I can send to you. INTERIOR: Beautiful tan interior in the car. Seats are very nice and do not sag. Carpets are in good shape and fit well. Gauges all work and the dash is in excellent condition. Very nice convertible top on the car with a solid and clear plastic window. Car has spare tire, tools, jack, hammer for knock offs, and owners manual. Once again I have several detailed pictures on the link I can send you.  ENGINE/TRANSMISSION: This is a very nice driving car with the desirable 4-speed. Engine pulls strong and runs out well. The clutch feels great and transmission shifts up and down with ease as it should. There is an updated ignition box that was installed by previous owner. Makes the car very reliable.  Headers through the exhaust is solid and sounds wonderful. The engine was replaced sometime in the car's history so it is a non-numbers matching car. Reason for the replacement is unknown but it is the correct type motor for the car. I have never had any overheating issues with the car. Overall, it performs very well and is a blast to drive. SUSPENSION/BRAKES: Car handles as it should and brakes work great. Power steering works and the car drives straight down the road. There is some mild squeaking in the brakes that happens occasionally.  Overall this is a great car and excellent to drive to shows or just around town. There are about $20k in receipts that come with the car from miscellaneous maintenance and restoration work completed by previous owner.  I WELCOME AND RECOMMEND A PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTION BEFORE THE AUCTION IS OVER AND PLEASE ASK TO SEE THE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS. Any questions or concerns then please contact me through eBay and we can go from there. After sale, a $1000 non-refundable deposit will be required within 24 hours and the final payment will be required within a week via cash/wire transfer only. Final payment is ONLY accepted via wire transfer or cash in person. NO other methods are accepted. Full payment must be made a week after the sale or buyer defaults on the sale. Shipping is the buyers responsibility and the car is expected to be picked up within a month after sale unless we speak about otherwise. I have tried to represent and describe the car to the best of my knowledge. There is no warranty implied or assumed within this description and the car is sold as is.  Thank you for looking, this is a beautiful car!  PLEASE EMAIL ME TO GET A LINK TO PHOTOS ON THE CAR bmxrams89 AT yahoo DOT com
