This 1967 Jaguar XKE Series I roadster is said to have been acquired by the seller’s brother in 1969 and later underwent a color change to white as part of a planned refurbishment initiated in the 1990s. Chassis 1E14797 subsequently spent time in storage before being acquired by the seller in 2010 as an incomplete project. The partially dismantled car features a convertible top frame over a stripped interior that retains a wood-rimmed steering wheel along with Smiths instrumentation. The non-running 4.2L inline-six is a replacement unit, and further equipment includes triple SU carburetors, a four-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip differential, and 15″ wire-spoke wheels. This XKE Series I roadster project is now offered at no reserve in Nevada with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, spare and removed parts, and a clean Montana title in the name of the seller’s LLC.

The 15″ wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-offs and are mounted with older tires that require replacement. The XKE featured four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rear units.

The stripped cabin retains a wood-rimmed steering wheel with drilled spokes that is paired with an aftermarket wood shift knob. Smiths instrumentation consists of a 160-mph speedometer and 6k-rpm tachometer as well as centrally mounted auxiliary gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and amperage. The five-digit odometer shows 26 miles, and total mileage is unknown. The seller notes that the car was rear-ended at some time in the past.

The non-running 4.2L inline-six is said to have been installed in the late 1980s. It is equipped with triple SU carburetors, though no air cleaners are fitted.

A full-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission is linked to a limited-slip differential out back. The seller notes rust on various underside components. A collection of spare and removed parts is included in the sale.

A Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Record Trace certificate shows the original colors and drivetrain numbers as well as the build and dispatch dates. The data plate is missing
