Auction description:
1964 Jaguar E-Type OTS Roadster
VIN: J64880071

Cosmetically and mechanically, this 1964 model XK-E was recently the subject of a comprehensive tub-up restoration to the highest standards. Finished in Jaguar's original Cream hue with a correct tan cloth top accented with deep red piping that matches the exquisite leather and carpet. Under the long, flowing wrap-around bonnet, the original 3.8 litre XK6 engine was blueprinted and balanced as part of a thorough overhaul to modern specifications, then further enhanced with modern high-torque starter, Pertronix ignition, soild-state fuel pumps and a multi-blade electric cooling fan. A period restored Grundig multi-band radio sets off the rest of the instrument-and-switch-laden dash panel and interior detailing to a tee. Even the car's boot suffered no lack of fastidious detailing, with a perfect spare wheel and tyre, complete original kit, tyre jack and a mint condition owner's handbook.
