This numbers matching 1967 Jaguar E-Type has had the same owners (caretakers) for the last 44 years. I wanted a series 1 roadster since childhood and in June of 1976 my then fiance purchased the car in Syracuse N.Y.. I had been a British Leyland apprentice during high school so I knew my way around Jags. It was a daily driver from 1976 to 2009. Our 4 children all grew up knowing that the "Jag" was the oldest sibling in the family. Throughout this time the car was driven, enjoyed,and maintained beyond factory specs. In 1985 I became a Jaguar Master Tech which only enhanced the car's care. In 2009 after 33 years of reliable service I decided to take care of some rust ........well I couldn't just do a patch-up job, not my style and the car is a family member. So 11 years later, every system in this car has been thoroughly gone through, no stone unturned, no expense spared.

The engine and transmission only had 22k so they got a tear down and reseal. Cylinderhead got a decarbonizing, valve lapping and cam bearings. Original calipers were resleeved by White Post Restorations. The rest of the hydrolics are new, including the the clutch master and slave. The front and rear suspention bushings, mounts and fasteners are all new. The final drive unit was completely rebuilt. As far as the electrical system: the gauges were all dismantled inspected cleaned and resealed. Same with all switches, motors, relays and harnesses which were rewrapped in cloth tape. Everything works even the clock. As far as the rust repair, all replacement panels were manufactured by Martin Robey they include: R&L radius arm mounts, R&L lower quarter panels, boot floor, R&L outer sills, R&L door skins, R&L F&R inner sill supports, all 4 bulkhead to frame mounts, R&L heel wells, and left floor. The entire car was brought to bare metal inside and out etched and epoxy primed prior to the panels being welded. This process will delay any corrosion. No plastic filler was used only a product called All Metal was used on seems and repairs. The finish is PPG Concept single stage urethane enamel mix to factory color Pale Primrose.( original color) During the refinishing each panel was painted separately including the bonnet parts. This is good if you ever have to adjust or remove a panel there won't be any chipping, it also is a nice detail. The wheel wells and underside have a final finish of two part epoxy bedliner, extremely durable and cleans easily. The original chrome wasn't bad so..... 5 new Dayton wheels, spinners, and Vredestien tires. Most of the exterior chrome was replated or replaced about 20% is still original. When it comes to the interior there is only one source that provides the closest to original as possible and that is British Auto Specialists. I installed their major kit with a canvas top.(minor change from original) While on the topic of changes, I made a few drivability changes over the years, they are: Lumanition electronic ignition which retains the factory distributor. High volume cooling fan and Ideal hose clamps. Weyland Ram-Flo air filters, Koni shocks, and stainless exhaust. When I started this whole thing it was not my intention to do a "full on fully" but it was just the proper way to do it. Now we have the "Jag" in the most excellent condition. Unfortunatly I'm not.... It's time to let this most amazing machine go to a new home. If you ever dreamed of owning one of these and have the means ...this is the vechicle for you!

This is a 1967 Jaguar XKE Roadster that has been extensively restored and comes with a detailed ownership and restoration history. According to the previous owner, on June 24, 1976 his soon to be wife purchased this car in Syracuse N.Y., from a police officer named George Bush. The car was burgundy in color, had 32k miles and was serviced and painted at a shop called Midtown Auto. He believes that George was the owner for a little over 2 years. Him and his wife drove the car during the summer months and stored it in winters. He did some minor from the purchase date to the late 70s. In 1980 at 52k miles He sent the monocoque out to have the rust repairs done. The floors and trunk floor were repaired at a shop called Spectrum Auto Body in Peekskill N.Y.. The final refinishing was done at his shop, Carz Body and Performance, in Mahopac N.Y. where the color was changed to black. At the same time the engine was rebuilt (.030 over bore), suspension, and brakes were also serviced. From 1981 to 2009 the car was used and enjoyed. In 2009 the car was completely dismantled, the engine and transmission only had 22k so they got a tear down and reseal. Cylinder head got a decarbonizing, valve lapping and cam bearings replaced. Original calipers were re-sleeved by White Post Restorations. The rest of the hydraulics are new, including the clutch master and slave.

When it comes to the interior there is only one source that provides the closest to original as possible and that is British Auto Specialists.

This 1965 Jaguar XKE Series I roadster was restored in 2019 and is powered by a 4.2-liter inline-six linked to a four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Finished in Pale Primrose over black leather, the car is equipped with a black soft top, a removable hardtop, a soft top boot, enclosed headlights, 15″ wire wheels, power-assisted disc brakes, dual side mirrors, triple windshield wipers, and a heater. The selling dealer acquired the car in 2023 and it is now offered in New York with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, the owner’s manual, and a clean Pennsylvania title.

Series I E-Types had covered headlights and taillights mounted above the chrome rear bumpers. This example was refinished in Pale Primrose, and additional equipment includes a black soft top, a removable hardtop, a soft top boot, enclosed headlights, a louvered clamshell hood, wraparound chrome bumpers, bright trim, dual side mirrors, triple windshield wipers, and dual exhaust outlets.

The 15″ wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-offs and are mounted with 185-series Veredestein Sprint Classic tires. The car is fitted with Koni shocks, and braking is provided by four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rear rotors.

The cabin features bucket seats upholstered in black leather along with color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Interior appointments include black vinyl dash trim, a sliding rearview mirror, and a heater.

The wood-rimmed steering wheel frames a Smiths 160-mph speedometer and 6k-rpm tachometer, while auxiliary gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and amperage are located in the center of the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 74k miles.

The 4.2-liter inline-six features triple SU carburetors and has been fitted with a Lumenition electronic ignition, a high-volume cooling fan, Weyland air filters, and a stainless steel exhaust system.

The cylinder head stamp matches the block stamp and the number listed on the Heritage certificate.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a full-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.

The Jaguar Heritage Trust Production Record Trace certificate shows the original colors and drivetrain numbers as well as the build and dispatch dates.

The sale also includes a tool kit, factory books, a jack, and a knock-off hammer.
