Car has a buy it now price of $125,000 for 6 days, seller lbilimited, 6k miles.
Seller's description:
Vehicle Original VIN : 1E16458
- Chassis # 1E 16458
- Engine # 7E 15204-9
- A Well Done Older Restoration That Has Held Up Wonderful
- Finished In Its Original Carmen Red Color
- Properly Serviced And Featuring Purposeful Driver Centric Upgrades
- Sale Includes Original Steering Wheel, Jack And Spare, Heritage Certificate, And Available Service Records
This particular example, Chassis #1E 16458, is a beautiful example of a 4.2-liter Series 1.5 finished in Carmen Red with a contrasting black leather interior and top. It retains its original and matching numbers engine block (7E 15204-9) as verified by the included Heritage Certificate. The car was built on December 5, 1967, and delivered to Jaguar Cars of New York on December 13, 1967, before being sold to a Dr. Edward Gordon. From there, its history becomes a little muddled. We are led to believe that it was restored sometime in the early 2000s before LBI acquired it on behalf of a local collector and long-time customer in 2014. Since then, it has undergone numerous services including a return to a Series 1’s tri-carb setup, an exhaust system overhaul, hood and trunk adjustments, new door seals, and many more items as detailed in the available records to bring the car to where it is today. As it sits, this Jaguar is a turn-key opportunity for the enthusiast who drives more than they show, even though this would fare well at any local event. Given its age, this E-Type is still a competent driver with absolutely no issues keeping up with modern traffic. Throw its four-wheel disc brakes into the equation, and you’ve got a recipe for a fun time all around.
Upon purchase, the new buyer will receive the original steering wheel, a correct jack in a reproduction bag, a reproduction owner’s manual, the Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate detailing the car’s manufacturing information, and all of the service records dating back to 2015.

Auction description:
West Palm Beach | Estimate: $120,000 - $140,000
Chassis No. 1E16458
Arguably one of Jaguar's most beautiful and popular sports cars, the E-Type was built from 1961 to 1974. Instantly recognisable by the long hood, the Series 1 E-Type was produced as both a two-seater coupe and convertible. Produced between 1967 and 1968, Series 1.5 cars were offered with some cosmetic changes such as open headlights and changes to provide U.S. emissions compliance. Further changes to these models include twin cooling fans and adjustable seat backs. Accompanied by a Jaguar Daimler Heritage certificate this E-Type Roadster was built on 5 December 1967 and is finished in Carmen red with a contrasting black leather interior and soft top. Featuring an older restoration that has since been well maintained, this example has also been reconfigured to the earlier tri-carb setup that can be found on an earlier Series 1. Reported servicing from past ownership includes new door seals and detailed hood and trunk adjustments along a vast service file that leave this E-Type in excellent overall condition.
