Auction description:
The Goodwood Festival of Speed Sale
Collector's Motor Cars and Automobilia
Chichester, Goodwood
27 Jun 2014 14:00 BST
1964 Jaguar E-Type 'Series 1' 3.8-Litre Roadster
Registration no. CMO 213B
Chassis no. 850940
Engine no. RA6794-9

Dating from August 1964, this 'Series 1' is one of the very last right-hand drive 3.8-litre roadsters made (the final chassis produced was '850943') and was supplied new via Henlys, London finished in Sand with red leather interior. Circa 1968 the E-Type was sold by Anthony Wolfe Motors, Northolt to a Mr D G Cullen and in 1992 was bought at auction by a Mr Florin, who then had it fully restored by the Yorkshire Vintage & Classic Car Company in Leeds (all bills on file). The car was subsequently sold via Jim Nicholson, Gosport to one John Robert Wheeler, who undertook a full cosmetic restoration, returning the livery to the original Sand, which was carried out during 2012/2013. The engine had already been rebuilt by A A McInnes of Bradford in 1994, since when only some 2,000 miles have been covered. Bought by the current vendor and enjoyed last year, 'CMO 213B' has covered approximately 500 miles since its most recent restoration and is only offered for sale as the owner is seeking a more sedate classic.

Described as in generally very good condition, sporting serviceable original red leather seats, with excellent engine and chassis, the car is offered with JDHT certificate, maintenance chart, MoT/tax to February 2015, V5C registration document and a substantial history file containing extensive maintenance/restoration bills and photographic records of works carried out. A stainless steel exhaust, 4-pot brake callipers and a Kenlowe electric cooling fan are the only notified deviations from factory specification.
