Sellers description:
This concourse-quality 1963 Jaguar XKE Series I OTS is restored to perfection.

We have a Heritage Certificate for this Jaguar. This car is numbers matching and finished as it came from the factory with a black interior, black top, and carmen red paint.

The black top is clean and damage free. The chrome is gorgeous and the wire wheels sparkle. All the glass is in excellent condition. The underside is clean and undamaged. The black interior is beautiful. The console and center gauge cluster has the correct aluminum plating and a working dealer-installed radio.

Mechanically this classic E-type is as solid as they come. It runs out wonderfully and performs like no other car can.

If you haven't already, take a look at the engine photos. We have seen brilliantly polished metal on these cars but the chromed pieces are just breath taking. Included in the sale are the original highly-polished engine components.

This Jag's documentation and ownership history goes back to the car's first owner. There are plenty of receipts and restoration records as well. This Jaguar also is documented to have less than 30,000 miles on her since new. So, what we have is a drop dead gorgeous numbers matching 1963 Jaguar XKE with the nicest engine bay to be found. With toggle dash switches and aluminum console inserts, we think the '63 Jaguar is one of the most distinguished of the stunning E-Types, and we think you will agree

More info from 8/17 2017 auction

Offered at No Reserve

Numbered 879215 and accompanied by a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust certificate confirming original data, this Jaguar is an exceedingly desirable matching numbers, original left-hand drive example. It left the Jaguar works on March 25, 1963, finished in Carmen Red over black upholstery with a black convertible top, the outstanding color combination it retains today. Following assembly, 879215 was dispatched to the United States via Jaguar Cars, New York on April 22, 1963 and sold in Detroit, Michigan to first owner P. Kurtz. In 1969, the E Type was purchased by Frederick J. Beamish, also of Detroit, who is believed the Jaguar's second owner. Interestingly, Mr. Beamish was a former Packard stylist who joined Ford Motor Company as a member of the team responsible for the Continental Mk II of the mid-1950s. A man with an obvious sense for great design, Mr. Beamish eventually retired to Arizona and he retained the car until the early 2000s, when it was acquired from his estate by collector Ray Skillman of Indiana.

While having traveled only some 27,000 miles at the time of purchase, Mr. Skillman commissioned a multi-year restoration, with receipts forming part of the dossier accompanying this example at auction. He opted to have several of the polished aluminum pieces on the engine chromed, enhancing an already gorgeous engine bay. A set of factory-finish pieces is also included with the sale of the car, should the new owner wish to reinstall them. Since being purchased in 2012 from the Skillman collection, this Jaguar has been a mainstay of two private collections. In late 2015, it was thoroughly refreshed including a complete bare-metal repaint in the original Carmen Red. 879215 is accompanied by exceptional documentation from new. It has been well-sorted and presents in strong mechanical condition, ready for grand touring in refined elegance, in a fashion that only provided by a Series I E Type.
