Ebay item 5/6/04
cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll
Current bid $25,100, no reserve, 15 bids, 6 days left in auction.

Sellers comment:
This collector car that you are bidding on is one of the finest models you will ever see whether you win the bid or not. It is a 1967 XKE conv., all matching numbers. The color is a rare original opalescent maroon with black interior and black top. Engine is an original 4.2 litre 6 cyl., 3 carb. with only 30,350 miles. The condition as you can see in the photos is superb. Any replacement parts over the years are N.O.S. with the exception of a racing package chrome tip exhaust pipe. Highest quality chrome wire wheels and new factory top with custom Tonneau cover from Jaguar. The engine compartment is like new but still 100% ORIGINAL/a total reflection of only 30,000 mi. in 38 yrs. Without sounding pompous I believe that this is the lowest legitimate mileage Series 1 Jaguar in the country. There are probably only five equal XKE Roadsters in the U.S. in such excellent condition and can surly be found at one of the higher end auctions such as Barrett/Jackson or Pebble Beach. The only flaws one can find are a couple of minor stone chips and one dimple from the monthly Sunday drives, otherwise the paint and finish is mirror/like. Always been garaged as any number 1 or number 2 car would be. This car can be driven but is SHOW QUALITY. I have been the proud owner for over 6 yrs. but am now accepting cash offers or very interesting and rare exotic trades.

Car returns to ebay 5/7/07
cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jaguar-1967-Jaguar-Xke-Series-1-Roadster-4-2_W0QQitemZ17 ...
Current bid $49,500, no reserve, 28 bids, 6 days left in auction. Car now located in Port Washington, New York.

This vehicle was restored approximately 6-8 years ago, All the brakes hydraulics, exhaust system, front suspension and rubber.
Serviced by JMS Motors in Port Washington NY, Specializing in British, German, Italian and Speciality cars for 26 Years

Exterior:
Painted in Custom variation of “Regency Red”
No accidents detected
Small blistering starting at R/Rear ¼ panel
The tiny blistering (3) spots are less than 1/4" each in size, on the R/Rear
¼ panel is call shot as to fix it now or wait. You really have to look for it.

It was repainted approx 6-8 Years ago
The Chassis & floor pans are in great condition.
Convertible top is in near perfect condition as well, It is not a vinyl top, Its
canvas
Canvas The Frame is painted properly “Gray”
Chrome: All pieces are in great condition, Rear tailights show minor rust or
Pitting, Probably aftermarket ones used during restoration, Can be re-chromed or replaced,

Interior:
Finished in black, No rips, Tears or Cracking
All gauges function properly, Dashboard has no cracks, Seats Near Perfect
Carpets show in very good condition , NO Tears or wears

Engine:
1967 4.2 Ltr Correct Engine # 7E6810-9
The compression is fine all cylinders in excess of 155 Psi
It does not smoke…..
All correct in so far as nothing by-passed (vacuum hoses)
The exhaust system is fitted with headers & ANSA system.
New aluminum radiator, Be-COOL fan
New wiring harness “engine” & “dashboard” (Done by JMS)
Rebuilt alternator & voltage regulator
Upgraded ignition “Pectronics” No more points “can be reverted back”

Transmission/Rear Axle:
Rear axle is in good service (previous rebuild) showing no signs of leakage
The brakes were redone including rotors (previous rebuild) Brakes/Suspension/Steering/Wheels & Tires:
The brakes were redone including rotors (previous rebuild)
Front suspension, New ball joints, tie rod ends done, Control arms repainted to preserve them. (previous rebuild)
Wheels hubs in good condition (previous rebuild)
New Wheels & Tires Michelin 205/65 R15 with tubes (R/R is pictured) all show the same

Driving Impressions:
This has got to be one of the all time “Be Seen” Vehicles I have driven. The Transmission shifts smooth, strong clutch. The car has an amazing ride, Probably due to current tires. Plenty of power, No running hot, or weird running issues.

Notes:
This car was restored approximatley 6-8 years ago, It appears to be a correct job performed. The floor pans are new, The Body is not loaded with "Bondo" as some restorations are done. The full mechanicals were rebuilt, Brakes, Suspension, exhaust system, We (JMS Motors) replaced the hood side and dashboard harness due to astetic value to complete the finished "Restored" value under the hood. The old harness wasnt a good quality one used. Always Garaged (Heated of Course)

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?
