You are bidding on a solid southern 1968 Jaguar E-Type Series 1.5 Roadster. It is currently ivory with a tan interior and tan soft top. The car was originally a Black car with Black interior, and Black Soft Top. The car has the 4.2L 6-cylinder engine with automatic transmission. It starts, runs and drives great. I have the Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate for the car showing the following:

First owner Noreda Conley

The car was bought new by Mrs. Noreda Conley's Husband of London Kentucky as gift to her. His wife could not drive a manual transmission so the dealer swapped out the motor and transmission for an automatic. The car was later sold to a Business man in London Kentucky who was also a car enthusiast. He later sold the car to a Pilot who restored the car to its current condition several years ago. It was an amateur restoration, and the car could use a repaint. The car appears to be a very solid car. It is missing the heater box. The car runs and drives great and with a little work would make a beautiful car.

Its Very Rare to find an original Triple Black Series 1.5 Jaguar Convertible.
