Car Condition: Show Driver Level
This Jaguar has recently undergone a comprehensive nut and bolt restoration by Classic Showcase to a high level Driver. The vehicle was disassembled and carefully inspected. The body will be stripped to metal, finished, fitted, re-painted and received a color, sand and buff. The vehicle was fitted with new chrome, a new windshield and new door glass. The engine, transmission and rear end were disassembled and rebuilt to factory specifications. All systems and components were thoroughly gone through including all mechanicals, electrical systems, fuel systems and cooling systems. The vehicle received a new wire loom, new sending unit, a new exhaust system, new clutch system and all suspension was replaced. The block and the head were re-built as well as the carburetors. The flywheel was also balanced and the gas tank was hot tanked and epoxy sealed. The vehicle also received new seals and rubber. New upholstery and carpeting were custom fitted and installed. This would appeal to not only the collector, but would be a great first time Jaguar for any connoisseur and be a strong candidate for showing. In a spectacular color combination. A DVD of the restoration process will accompany the car.

Auction description:
Chassis No. 1E30131
Estimate: $80,000-$100,000 US
To be auctioned on Friday, January 22, 2010
Finished in Opalescent Green with a tan leather interior, this E-Type Fixed Head Coupe recently underwent a comprehensive nut-and-bolt restoration by the marque specialists at Classic Showcase in California. After the extensive restoration, the car is reported to be in high-level driver condition. The vehicle was completely disassembled and carefully inspected before the body was stripped to bare metal, finished, fitted, re-painted and color sanded and buffed.
With countless E-Type restorations to their credit, Classic Showcase is considered an industry leading restoration facility. All systems and components were thoroughly gone through, including all mechanicals, electrical systems, fuel systems and cooling systems. Additionally, the car received a new wire loom, windshield and door glass, sending unit, fuel pump, hard and soft lines for the fuel system and hydraulic system, exhaust system, and clutch system; all suspension components were replaced as well.
The mechanical work alone required considerable investment. The engine, transmission and rear end were disassembled and rebuilt to factory-correct specifications. The block and head were rebuilt as well, along with the carburetors, and the flywheel was balanced while the gas tank was hot tanked and epoxy sealed. The vehicle also received a new header tank. All instruments were restored as well as the rotors and the radiator. Additionally, this E-Type also received all new seals, rubber and grommets.
Restoration of the interior was also conducted by Classic Showcase to include new upholstery, seats, panels, headliner and carpeting, which were custom fitted and installed. The finished result is spectacular and the color combination of Opalescent Dark Green with tan leather is a timeless pairing. A DVD of the restoration process will accompany the car as well. This is a great Jaguar for a collector who wants a vehicle to drive, enjoy and even show. Since completion, it has been driven about 100 miles to be prepared and set up for its new owner.

Dare to Dream Collection, Toronto, Ontario
To be offered on Saturday, 1 June 2024
1965 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2-Litre Fixed Head Coupe
$120,000 - $160,000 USD | Offered Without Reserve
Chassis No. 1E 30131
Documents 859270000
Completed in the first month of 4.2-liter production
Wonderfully restored with classic British Racing Green Exterior over a cognac interior
Documented by a Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Record Trace Certificate, restoration photographs, and invoices
Completed in the first month of 4.2-liter production, this 1965 Jaguar E-Type Roadster left the factory bound for the United States in October 1964. The exterior originally featured Opalescent Maroon paint with a Black interior, according to the Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Record Trace certificate on file.
Now finished in a classic scheme of British Racing Green over a cognac leather interior, this Jaguar was the recipient of a concours-quality rotisserie restoration in 2009. Photos from this project confirm the E-Type was completely disassembled, refinished, and reassembled to an incredibly high standard. As such, this handsome coupe shows in spectacular condition to this day. In 2013, the Jaguar entered the Dare to Dream Collection and, an invoice on file shows the carburetors were rebuilt in 2019. At the same time, the electrical system was also serviced.
