Auction description:
Sale 18418 - Fairfield County Concours d'Elegance, Exceptional Collectors' Motorcars and Automobilia, 12 Sep 2010
Westport, CT
Lot No: 339A•
1970 Jaguar XKE Convertible
Chassis no. 1R 11170
Engine no. 7R 84249
This example of Jaguar's iconic XKE/E Type dates from 1970, by which time the model had advanced to 4.2 Litre power and had revised Series 2 body-styling with modified open headlights with fairings no longer in place, while enlarged side and rear lights were adopted to comply with U.S. safety legislation and a deeper front bumper section also differentiated the car from its predecessors.
An original U.S. Spec car with manual transmission, the Jaguar has been the subject of much work in recent years, including new Old English White paint at which time new hood, door and trunk lid seals were fitted. On the mechanical side, a stainless steel exhaust has been fitted, as well as new ball joints, electronic ignition, new engine mounts and gaskets, a new gear reduction starter, clutch and a new aluminum radiator. In addition in previous ownership a triple Weber carburetor conversion was added.
All of this makes for a usable E Type in fresh and very presentable order.
Sold for $34,515 inclusive of Buyer's Premium
