Car to be at auction 3/15
auctionsamerica.com/events/feature-lots.cfm

Auction description:
1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II 4.2 Fixed Head Coupe
Lot No. 230
To be offered on Friday, March 27, 2015
Offered Without Reserve
Estimate: $ 60,000 - $ 90,000

With only two owners (father and daughter) from new, this Jaguar has been "frame-off" restored over a number of years, seeing its completion in 2007, the same year the daughter inherited the car. Nearly six-figures were invested in the restoration and the receipts and photo documentation of the process are included in the sale. It comes with a Jaguar Heritage Certificate with its production trace showing the car was originally presented in Pale Primrose (light yellow) and Black; as the car is beautifully finished.

After 46 years of one-family ownership, perhaps one of the biggest assets is being the one to be able to acquire a fine car from the original purchaser's family member and the firsthand stories that can accompany the car - always.

Fort Lauderdale
1969 Jaguar E-Type Series II 4.2 Fixed Head Coupe
Lot No. 757
Sold for $ 57,200
4.2-liter inline six-cylinder engine
Four-speed manual transmission
Over four decades of single family ownership until 2015
Jaguar Heritage Certificate
Restoration completed in 2007

This Jaguar has been "frame-off" restored over a number of years, seeing its completion in 2007. It comes with a Jaguar Heritage Certificate with its production trace showing the car was originally presented in Pale Primrose (light yellow) and Black; as the car is beautifully finished. The Jaguar is powered by the 4.2-liter inline six engine, which is paired to a console-shift four-speed manual transmission. With instruments by Smiths; the speedometer and tachometer dominates the driver's view of the dash, while the additional factory instrumentation and numerous systems toggle switches give the cockpit an overall aircraft (of the period) feel. There is a strategically placed handbar for the passenger that braces from the right of the glovebox to the base of the windshield pillar that can come in handy if the driver is putting the car through its well-intended paces. The car has a great overall appearance that is highlighted by the factory chrome steel wheels, four-wheel disc brakes and modern audio. When the Jaguar was acquired by a new owner in 2015, it had come from over four decades of single-family ownership. The original family that owned the car was the same family that ensured the cars restoration was completed correctly.
