Sellers description:
1957 Jaguar XKSS "Tribute" Car!
Finished in British racing green over black, this automobile is a tribute to one of the most famous sports cars of all time, the XKSS owned by film star and race car driver Steve McQueen. It was built in the early 1980s in England by RAM Engineering [which is now Realm Engineering]. It features a drive train from a 1964 E-Type Jaguar and titled as a 1964 Jaguar. This is NOT a "kit car" chassis! This is a fiberglas body car. This particular car was acquired by the current collector car owner in 2004 at the RM classic car auction [as a consolation gift to himself upon parting with one of his original 1955 D-Type XKD 528s he owned for 20 years! This particular car presented here on Ebay sports a superb running 3.8 liter inline six cylinder engine with triple carbs mated to a 4 speed manual transmission, Dunlop 15" peg-drive wheels with Vredestein tires, Reynard Racing chassis, 1990 Jaguar XJ disc brakes, Moto-Lita wood and aluminum steering wheel, upgraded alternator installed in the original Lucas generator case, trunk mounted rack and racing-style seat belts. It is being sold with clean and clear California title, current registration, car cover and includes a just issued black on gold period-correct California license plate!
This stunning Jaguar is a great value appreciating collectible being offered here at a fraction of the price of an original seven-figure original XKSS.

The exterior of this 1957 Jaguar is in excellent, near flawless show condition with gleaming paint and trim finishes. There are just a few minor blemishes of nicks, paint cracking and other very light imperfections.

The interior of this car is in excellent to superb condition throughout. The lights, blinkers, horn and all other gauges and controls[except for the currently non-working odometer and speedometer] function as they should. Please note: The cockpit is tight and frankly suitable for a 5'9" or shorter driver!

This 1957 Jaguar will be sold with clean and clear title. It is smog-exempt here in California due to the year [pre-1976]. It will be sold "AS IS" with no written or verbal warranties expressed or implied. We welcome and urge prospective buyers, at their expense, to schedule independent third party inspections [at any service facility within ten mile radius of San Mateo, Ca.]
