Sellers description:
1969 JAGUAR E-TYPE FIXED HEAD COUPE.

This car comes in British Racing Green from the factory, all numbers matching as well as factory air that does work. Very nice condition car has a few small rock chips from everyday driving. This car is very solid with no signs of rust anywhere. I have owned this car for several years and have done lots of regular maintenance to it such as engine rebuild, carbs have both been rebuilt as well. All new gaskets included transmission seal and rear main seal at the time of the engine rebuild were replaced. The radiator was also serviced ensuring no overheating. Both fans do work and come on as needed. The undercarriage is very solid with no rot never looks like anyone every had any floors cut or replaced . If you are looking for a great turn key car this is the one for you.

Back on eBay. Miles 57393. Some updated photos.

www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Jaguar-E-Type-2-door/174401277391

8/20/20 current bid:$5,100 reserve price not met 6 bids same seller and location 57k miles.

Seller's description:

1969 Jaguar E -Type Fixed Head coupe comes equipped with a 4.2 Liter engine along with a 4 speed manual gearbox numbers matching car. Engine was taken out approx 3 years ago and was rebuilt the transmission was serviced as well. New clutch and flywheel were also installed. The brakes were also redone new pads and rotors as well as all new brake lines. The car also has a new master cylinder clutch slave cylinders as well as a refurbished radiator and hoses and wires. The car was painted a little over 1 year ago in Period correct British Racing Green that is original to the car. The interior was also redone including all new seat covers and foam, as well as new door panels, and a complete carpet kit. The chrome was plated using triple plating on most of the items. All new rubbers and seals were replaced on the Jag when being reassembled. The undercarriage is very solid and rust free. The car was blasted underneath prior to being re coated. If you are looking for a very nice Jag E Type that has been recently restored this is the one. The car does have a couple of paint chips on it since it was repainted nothing major, but the paint is not perfect now as it was when done over a year ago. If you are looking for a solid rust free Jag that is the right color combo. Once again this is a very nice car not a perfect car, but needs nothing to be enjoyed as is.

I bought this car on ebay for USD 50k based on the description and the pictures, claiming a running, restored car. Reality is that is a total restauration project, not touched for a decade.

Alex Plotitsa delayed the export of the car (he with held the title after all money was paid) so that it arrived after the 60 day Ebay feedback period had closed. Neutral Feedback was left for the communication within 60 days, but was removed, for some reason,

possibly by Alda Logistics Inc. My ebay account was acessed illegally in the mean time, I was informed by ebay..

The transaction has now been removed from my Ebay purchase list, so it is invisible, and can not be appealed.

The car is a totally unsafe, run down, and has not been run for years. Both front wheels nuts fell off within driving two miles as the centre locking hubs had been switched, left and right. No coolant was left in the engine and the perished hoses leaking badly.

Cooling hoses wete supposed to be new. Hoses were patcehed together in the most amateurish way. Did not start as the starter was seized. No electrics working apart from front lights. No reat lights, brake lights, washer, wipers, fan, horn, oil pres, rad fans, interior light or...

Neither wheel bearings or throttle connections are safe and secured with cotter pins. Or many other issues.

Brakes were claimed to be new with new hoses. This is a totally fabricated story, as front rotors were rusted, together with rusty steel pipes. Flex hoses minimum 10 years old. Rear brakes were decades old buried in mud and leaking oil. No handbrake cable installed.

Body rubbers were missing or fell off as the were badly fitted.

A bodged exhaust was welded in place causing a fire hazard, as it is squeezed up against floor and heath shield has been binned. All joints welded incl. the manifold flanges, causing expensive damage to cast manifolds. Al claimed this was a bew expensive part installed.

Car had standing water on arrival as the windows were open and winder broken, while the car was left out for weeks while Al Plotitsa withheld the paperwork.

The positive description in the ad is a total fabrication, and is repeated nearly identical on another E-type advertised by ALDA logistics Inc, Memphis TN.

Al Plotitsa has showed himself as a cheap second hand car dealer, like a carricature. Dont belive what his imagination has dreamt up in the description.

The 400+ positive feedback on Ebay is not believable, and not credible, as I have left negative feedback, which then disappeared.

Never buy without inspecting the ciafs from ALDA Logistics Inc first.

This car was sold by ALDA Logistics Inc, acting as Sk8high123 on Ebay. After receiving this restored nice driver, I have to conclude it is ready for restauration from the previous bodg work. Non-starter, Wheels falling off, no electrics connected, exhaust welded to engine, manifold and exhaust scrap.

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?
