Lot Description 1967 JAGUAR E-TYPE SERIES 1 4.2 ROADSTER

Chassis No. 1E 15876
Engine No. 7E 13929 - 9
British Racing Green with black interior
Our research with the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust, has confirmed that this Jaguar E-Type was originally supplied to left hand drive, manual specification. Their Heritage certificate also notes that its date of manufacture was 4th July 1967 and that it was dispatched 10 days later. It was original distributed through Jaguar Cars, New York to Marish J. McCullough of Baltimore, Maryland. When new it was finished in Carmen Red livery with black top and black interior. A confirmation certificate issued by the JDHT accompanies the car. Unfortunately successive details of history are not known at this time, except that it has resided in the present European collection ownership for nearly 20 years.

Today, although repainted externally in British Racing Green, the engine bay still wears its original red color and in general this aspect summarizes the car well in that it has clearly received some cosmetic work previously but has never benefited from a full restoration. The odometer records some 83,000 miles, which may well be original to the car. On inspection, we noted that the dash has a more modern radio fitted and with the exception of a spare tire there are no other accessories present.

It is anticipated that the E Type will be running at the time of sale, but the sensible precaution of a thorough re-commissioning prior to proper use is advised. As Simon Taylor's accolade confirms whether the bare minimum of such work be undertaken or the car chosen as the basis for a concours restoration, it will no doubt be a rewarding project for the successful purchaser.
