    Description from above auction:

    online.handh.co.uk/m/lot-details/index/catalog/89/lot/41985/%2Fm%2Fview-auctions%2Fcatalog%2Fid%2F89%2F%3Fpage%3D3

    Lot 105 of 139: 1961 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 'Flat Floor' Roadster

    Not Sold Estimate: £120,000 - £150,000

    Registration No:597 NYB

    Chassis No:850290

    - Desirable 'Flat Floor' example and the 290th righthand drive Roadster

    - Restored over a 10 year period and family owned since 1992

    - Presented in its original livery of Carmen Red with Red leather trim

    A desirable 'Flat Floor' example, this gorgeous E-Type was in fact the 290th righthand Roadster to vacate the Browns Lane factory, which it did on November 27, 1961 bound for Henlys London. It boasted Carmen Red bodywork and Red leather trim, as it still does to this today. It has remained in the same family ownership since 1992 and was restored over a 10 year period; work that included the installation of a new interior supplied by Aldridge Trimming of Wolverhampton and a fresh Black mohair hood. More recently '597 NYB' has been treated to a new clutch and exhaust gaskets, and attention paid to the cooling system. The vendor presently views its bodywork, paintwork, upholstery, original straight-six engine and four-speed manual transmission as all being in a 'very good' state and is now making this apparently very original, home market, matching chassis and engine numbers Jaguar available complete with Heritage Certificate, photographs of the restoration, an original E-Type service manual and operating handbook, and large collection of invoices, tax discs and old MOT certificates plus the original welded in louvered bonnet is included in the sale and can be collected from our head office.

    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?
