~This is an absolutely gorgeous 1973 Jaguar E-type XKE V12 Roadster. 400 V8 conversion backed by a 700R4 transmission. Power steering and brakes. Chevrolet small block power and reliability for the sexiest cars ever built. Conversion was 100% bolt-in, absolutely no cutting, welding, etc. All instrumentation functions as original, thus your collectable piece remains unscathed and you can enjoy its use. The V8 E-Type weighs approximately 125 pounds less than its V12 predecessor when using an all iron V8. The center of gravity is changed slightly rearward and enhances the handling without upsetting the ride. Serviceability, parts availability and cost, fuel economy and reliability, are just a few of the pluses. Drive it anywhere and back!!! It all slips under the stock bonnet to keep it under wraps and sneaky.
~The body is laser straight and the paint looks amazing! Its about 20 years old but has always been garaged and still looks fantastic. The interior is very clean. Top is in good shape.
~The car runs and drives very well. The conversion was done back in 2000 and has had only
approximately
10, 000 miles since then. Engine fires right up with no smoke or funny noises. Transmission shifts nice and crisp. Brakes are good. I had the entire front end rebuilt and realigned a few weeks ago so the steering is nice and tight. It has the world renowned Jaguar Independent Rear suspension with the inboard disc brakes. Factory spoke knock off wheels.
