Sellers description:
THIS ONE OWNER FROM NEW (bought in Missouri ) 1968 JAGUAR XKE 4.2 ROADSTER.
IS BEING OFFERED FOR SALE FOR THE FIRST TIME HERE ON E BAY.

THIS CAR HAS LED A SHELTERED LIFE AND HAD ONLY RECORDED 25 ,446 MILES IN 24 YEARS.
IT WAS APPRAISED AT $48,000.00 IN 1992, AFTER HAVING A THROUGH FRESHENING INCLUDING PISTONS RINGS, MAIN AND ROD BEARINGS IN LOWER END, VALVE SERVICE, A NEW CLUTCH AND HYDRAULICS,
COMPLETE BRAKE SERVICE FRONT AND REAR COMPLETE SUSPENSION SERVICE FRONT AND REAR.

THE SEATS HAVE BEEN RECOVERED IN CONNOLLY LEATHER, WITH NEW CUSHIONS AND SEAT DIAPHRAGMS. THE CENTER CONSOLE ALSO HAS BEEN RECOVERED IN LEATHER.
THESE WERE DONE THIS SPRING THE TOP IS ONLY A FEW YEARS OLD AND THE REAR WINDOW IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION
THE TIRES ARE MEATY AND IN GOOD CONDITION WITH RELATIVELY NEW TUBES

THE ENGINE RUNS GREAT AND HAS VERY GOOD OIL PRESSURE. ALL OF THE INSTRUMENTS WORK,
THE E BRAKE AND ALL OF THE OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT IS ALSO IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. IT HAS NEVER HAD A RADIO IN IT SO NO ANTENNA HOLES IN THE BODY. THE ORIGINAL PASSENGER FOOT BOARD IS IN PLACE

THIS IS ONE OF THE TIGHTEST ROADSTERS WE HAVE DRIVEN.
I HAVE PERSONALLY USED THIS CAR ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AND IT IS A PLEASURE TO DRIVE.

THIS IS NOT A TRAILER QUEEN BUT A REAL NICE DRIVER.
IT GOULD BE A CONCOURSE CAR WITH SOME MINOR DETAILING AND A FEW UPGRADES.

THIS IS A RUST FREE, ORIGINAL ONE OWNER, ALWAYS GARAGED VEHICLE WITH IT'S ORIGINAL FLOORS..... INNER AND OUTER ROCKER (SILL) PANELS.... AND VIRTUALLY NO CORROSION IN ANY OF THE USUALLY PLACES I.E. THE RADIUS ARM MOUNTS TO THE BODY.... OR THE FLOORS TO ROCKERS(SILLS).... OR IN BETWEEN THE FLOORS AND THE ROCKERS. ....THE SUSPENSION AND BRAKES HAVE ALL BEEN SERVICED BUT THERE ARE ABOUT 4500 MILES ON THE CAR SINCE THEY WERE DONE ABOUT 14+- YEARS AGO, THE PAINT ON SOME ITEMS IS FADING BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT THE SHOCKS WERE NEW AND THAT JUST ABOUT EVERY PART WAS CHECKED AND UPDATED IF NOT UP TO SNUFF AT THE TIME THE WORK WAS DONE.
