    1968 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 1/2 4.2-Liter Roadster
    Chassis No. 1E16646
    Estimate: $115,000-$135,000 US
    AUCTION DATE: Friday, August 19, 2011
    OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE
    - One of less than 2,000 built
    - In original color combination and documented with the Heritage Certificate
    - Recipient of a full restoration to exacting standards
    - Southern California ownership with warranty info, receipts and books

    The 1968 Jaguar E-Type Series 1½ presented here, with chassis number 1E16646, has enjoyed limited ownership in Southern California and has recently been restored by Jaguar professionals. It has also received a full detail and service by Southern California marque specialists Classic Showcase before its debut at auction. During restoration the body was stripped and completely repainted. Brightwork was also re-chromed, and new rubber and seals were fitted. Inside, a new and proper tan interior was installed. Mechanical systems and instruments were thoroughly gone through, and a new wire loom was installed. Final touches include a new exhaust system and new battery as well as new chrome wire wheels and tires.

    The beautiful ascot fawn body and matching fawn top and boot cover is enhanced by the stunning chrome work, which includes new front and rear nurf bars, wing windows and a luggage rack for the avid adventurer. The interior of this '68 E-Type looks equally gorgeous with its tan leather seat and trim. Original warranty information documenting the purchase date and location along with the books and receipts will accompany the sale. The vendor reports the E-Type runs very well and presents just as well cosmetically.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    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?
