Sellers description:
You know this car isn't perfection when you see the price, but it isn't a project, either. It's been repainted and the work was done a few years ago, so it has some signs of age and use, but this car has the basics down pat. It's not a rust bucket that was patched together from two or three other cars, and aside from one of the doors whose fit could use some tweaking, it fits together quite well. Bright yellow works well on the slinky E-Type shape and the car is a high-visibility piece no matter what color you paint it. There's a decent shine to the finish and it doesn't have any major issues that would prevent you from just going out and enjoying the car as-is. Someday you will want to repaint it, and values would justify a high-quality job, but this car will get you into the game right now at a very reasonable price. You'll also note that the chrome is excellent, including the bumpers, headlight trim, and even the luggage rack out back.
At some point, the interior was reupholstered and they pretty much stuck to the factory look. There's matching yellow piping on the seats that lends a sporty flair, but otherwise it looks quite authentic. There are some minor signs of wear but overall it's quite good and a deep cleaning would probably make it really sparkle. The wood-rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel is in excellent shape and the handsome Smiths gauges show well, although the tach is not functioning. And yes, this is a desirable 4-speed, making it the most road-worthy of the E-Types. There's more space in the cockpit, improved ergonomics, and if you're a driver, this is the one to own. A Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo has been added, and it was neatly done so it doesn't stand out as an obvious modification. In case of foul weather, there's a standard folding convertible top, but you'll probably keep it stowed under the matching black boot most of the time.
