1968 Jaguar E-Type XKE

Jaguar E-Type XKE (1968)
for sale

Price: US $20,000.00

Description:

This Jag has been in the family since the early 70's I believe my parents were the 2nd owners, the car has been sitting most of its life in the garage under a cover. The car was last driven on an occasional basis in 1999, since then its been started and driven very little, just a few times around the block. Last time it was started was last year. The car is extremely solid, I used a magnet to check all the normal areas and from what I can see its totally rust free. There are a number of dings and dents that I tried to capture in the pictures, the largest is in the lower rocker panel on the passengers side. The Glass is perfect, no cracks or fading. As for the gauges, they all work with the exception of the speedometer and the tach is showing higher RPM's then it should. All lights, fans work. The top is old and has a small hole on the drivers side in the back where the top corner of the frame pushes on the top. I believe my parents made some small changes from the original car, adding the 3 downdrafts instead of the 2, not sure what else. Please look at the pictures for details. The car comes with a set of new brakes and rotors, electronic distributor and just needs to be installed.
