Opening bid US $40,000 reserve not met no bids 9 days left in auction, 38k miles.

Sellers description:
Wonderful low mileage 1974 jaguar XKE series III roadster, automatic, factory a/c, and numbers matching. This car has been in storage for several years by an elderly owner and is in very solid condition. A friend brought it to my garage and was entertaining a full restoration, but has decided on not taking on the project for health reasons. I am selling it for them. Paint is nice, interior is in good shape, no rust, colors and finishes seem to be original. The tires are still holding the same air when it was stored. Cosmetically inside it doesn't need much more than a nice detail. The exterior could use a wax and will shine up nicely. The car ran and drove fine when it was put away. It turns over and runs with some fuel assistance. It could definitely use a fuel clean out. I'm sure it will need to be tuned up, fluid changes, and brought back to life. It is a very solid car and is 100% there. Just over 38,300 original miles on this car. The car could use some restoration to be a show/driver candidate. It comes with a very rare factory Landau burgundy hard top, factory wires wheels, and was obviously not abused by its owners. Body is very strait and has a dealer installed Nardi steering wheel. Chrome is nice and maintained. The electronics in the rear compartment was set up for a period time Mobil radio (before cell phones...kind of cool!)
