This E-Type, one of the last Series 1 examples built, left the Browns Lane factory on March 31, 1967, and was sold new by Jaguar Cars of New York to Robert and Patricia Polker on April 12, 1967.

Most recently, the car was subjected to an extensive restoration by the Jaguar marque specialists at Classic Showcase in Oceanside, California. Today, it presents in a truly stunning color combination of an opalescent Silver Blue exterior with a complementary dark blue leather interior, topped with an excellent dark blue soft-top and boot. The body was completely restored, with even the undercarriage of the E-Type painted in the body color. Once painted, the car was color-sanded and buffed to a deep gleaming shine. The engine, transmission, rear end, and steering rack were restored, with the hydraulic, cooling, fuel, and electrical systems also having been restored and rebuilt. This beautiful Jaguar also includes its JDHT Certificate, verifying that the "numbers match" and it has only been driven less than 100 test miles since its completion.
