Ebay item 5/18/14
www.ebay.com/itm/Jaguar-E-Type-2-Door-1966-Jaguar-E-type-OTS-/301186654014
Car has a buy it now price of $79,900 for 6 days.

Sellers description:
1966 Jaguar E-type 4.2 liter OTS:

A restoration was started in 1976 but stopped due to lack of interest by 2nd owner. It was then sold to the current owner in 2009-2010, still sitting now. As a result, the rebuilt engine has seized due to neglect, and some rusting has occurred on the undercarriage. The body work was filled with lead (no bondo), and painted with 14 coats of lacquer paint ('76). Back to the engine; it had been running, and the car was driven a short distance. There is about 2-3 hours on the engine, and the re-built differential ('76). The mileage on the odometer reads 27,568 which is believed to be correct. All chrome was re-done at that time in '76 and all parts plus extras are believed to be with the car (panels, tool kit, jack, etc.). The top frame is in good condition. This is a straight lined car with all doors, bonnet, and lid fitting well. It is believed to have always been stored inside.

As mentioned earlier, the head is not the original. However, with minimal effort this could be a nice driving car, as is.

The bidding on ebay stopped at $32,700 on June 23, 2014. After viewing the car I believe it to be worth $30,000 at best. The car is apart and the engine head does not match. Buyer beware the gentleman representing this car is not the owner.

Correction $37,200

I represent the owner and the cars original restoration attempt was performed by me before sold to owner now
The owner does not use the internet
I asked for an independent ,outside appraisal before the 6/18/14 auction, carefully researched sites such as hagerty, the fuelist, hemmings, nada, Edmund, autotrader, among others. I also talked with a restorationist in MI & CA and their thoughts on the car.
The value is determined to be in the range of 60-70K as is.
I understand everyone has an opinion.
Also, differing levels of skill, etc. I got a lot of e-mails wanting a buy it now price. if you read this and give the a decent offer I will take it to the owner.
BTY, my fee for the listing is at my expense and getting a qualified buyer is at the owners discretion meaning he will not sell to individuals who are unscrupoulus and rude. Also, being a certified auto body painter and mechanic, the owner is in no rush to sell, he just not have time.
During my research it appears the values of 1966 E-types are rising in value month over month, year over year since 2009 and the 3.8's I believe are in the "pool" as I call it for the entire British upward values
In other words the "valuable" British cars are steadily rising, such as the '66 E-type

Sold by E Type UK of Hadlow in October 2021. Abbreviated seller's description below.

This roadster left the production line on 10th September 1965, finished as an original left hand drive and delivered to Jaguar Cars of Eastern Canada finished in Opalescent Dark Green with Suede Green interior and a Sand hood. It was sold to Albert Goodman, as shown on th Jaguar heritage certificate, Early years are undocumented although it was treated to an exterior respray to Maroon with the original engine frames remaining in Opalescent Dark Green. In 2019 it arrived in Spain in this condition where it was treated to a ground up restoration.

It was stripped to bare metal and fitted with new door skins, floors and hood frame. It then underwent paint preperation, restoring the bodylines and panel gaps. The roadster was finished in Opalescent Gunmetal. The E Type was then reassembled and finished with originality and reliability in mind. It was fitted with new exterior brightwork and upgrades including alluminium radiator, electric cooling fan, sports coil, high torque starter motor, electronic ignition, stainless steel exhaust system, polished wire wheels. The build was completed with all new red trim and black mohair roof.

Freshly restored the E Type drives as good as it looks, its restored 4.2l engine paired with a period correct 4 speed synchro box, to offer smooth and reliable performance.

The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
