We have buffed and polished the paint and chrome to near perfection; especially considering the car was painted 11 years ago. The car looks better in person, if you can believe that.

This is a spectacular 1965 Jaguar E Type Series 1 OTS. It is NUMBER'S MATCHING. This is widely considered the most desirable of all E Types; featuring the 4.2 liter engine, full synchro-mesh transmission, toggle switches, covered headlights, etc. This gorgeous convertible had a complete Lippincott restoration in 1998. It has only 4000 miles since then. It is finished in its original navy blue with a black interior. The car runs as well as it looks. We have all documents, service history, and restoration receipts. The previous owner had the car for over 20 years and commissioned the total restoration in 1997. We have refreshed all suspension bushings and mounts and changed fluids in the past year. As you can see, we also have the JDHT. The car is a pleasure to drive, and is at home on the the show field or the road. Call David (610 647-5900) with any questions or to arrange an inspection.Click on the ME icon to learn more about us and a link to our website.We are long time British automobile restorers.We reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally.

Current bid US $10,100 reserve not met 4 bids 6 days left in auction. Car now at Fantasy Junction, Emeryville, California, 59k miles.

Sellers description:
Mileage: 59833 Miles TMU

Dark Blue with Black Interior

This particular 4.2L Series I OTS is a matching numbers example, presented in its original delivery color of dark blue. It is a nice driver example in condition, and runs and drives well. Sold new in May of 1965 to a Mr. Harry A. Hodgins, it appears to have remained Stateside its entire life. In the 1990s the car saw considerable restoration work, primarily concerning the body and paint. According to documentation on file from Lippincotts Garage (specializing in Jaguars), both the engine and transmission were rebuilt as well, although we do not have the actual invoices for this work.

The paintwork has been done in lacquer to high driver standards over reasonably straight panels. The car displays good shut lines and even body gaps. The chrome is in very nice order, with just minor aging evident. It sits on sparkling chrome wire wheels which were new at the time of restoration, and are presently shod with near new modern Michelin tires.

The interior and top were also addressed during the restoration, and have a very nice driver presentation, in keeping with the exterior. There is one minor split seam on the driver's seat cushion. The leather is of high quality, and has a similar feel to that which was originally fitted to E-Types, and is stitched in the original pattern. A new canvas top and top boot were fitted. The odometer shows 59,000 miles at present, which would seem plausible as the total original mileage.

The restoration work was done with the engine and transmission out of the car, and the engine bay presents beautifully. Correct finishes are applied to the airbox, heater unit, radiator overflow tank, and cylinder head. The valve covers and triple carburetors are nicely polished, yet not over done to a mirror finish. The underside is solid at this time, although the well-trained eye can detect the metalwork performed during the restoration process.

Included with the car are fairly detailed records for work performed between 1993-1998, and a photo documentary of the restoration, the matching wire wheel spare, jack, and hammer. The 4.2L Series I E-Types are very much the pick of the production run, especially for those enthusiasts with driving in mind. The all-synchro transmission, and more comfortable seats are definite pluses when compared to the 3.8L cars, yet they retain the attractive lines of the covered headlights, which certainly make them more desired and collectible than the Series II cars which followed.
