This beautiful car is a Show/Driver example of superb quality, and has a fantastic documented pedigree from new!
This 1970 4.2 coupe was originally ordered and purchased directly from a German Jaguar dealership in 1970 by a U.S Army Captain who had it shipped back to the States later that same year.
It eventually made its way to Palos Verdes, California and stayed with the original owner up until 2011 when it was purchased in California by our client (who has just traded it to us) we have kept the car in storage for him most of the time in a fully detailed condition when not in his limited use.
Prior to our client purchasing it had undergone a comprehensive restoration to Show/Driver level by Jaguar professionals. It has had a complete repaint in base coat, clear coat, wet sanded, and buffed to a high level. All systems have been gone through and the engine, transmission, rear end and suspension have been rebuilt.
A new stainless steel exhaust system has been installed and all of the bright work was re-plated.
This E-Type features an AM/FM Blaupunkt radio converted to digital with an i-Pod jack and in fact, won its first car show since restoration, taking first place.
It comes complete with the jack, owner's manual, service books, original shift knob, California blue plates, small California pink slip, and even the original personal import and bill of lading shipping papers dated July 1970.
It has lots (way too much to list here) of documented records and service receipts dating back to 1970 including the fully stamped up dealership service book to 21,210 miles. The current mileage of 28,047 is believed to be correct on this 42 year old Jaguar having been in the hands of its first owner for the first 40 years!
This 1970 E-Type would be an excellent addition to any Jaguar enthusiast's collection, as well as being a spectacular car to drive. It starts instantly, runs, shifts, brakes as designed...an absolute turn-key delight ready for any collection and hopefully be driven and enjoyed!
