This 1969 Jaguar XKE Series II roadster was purchased by the current owner in 2002, and it was repainted in Pale Primrose with a black soft top circa 2007. The car is powered by a 4.2-liter inline-six linked with a four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential, and equipment includes a louvered clamshell hood, four-wheel disc brakes, chrome 15″ wire wheels, Koni front shocks, and wrap-around bumpers. The cabin features bucket seats trimmed in black leather along with a wood-rimmed steering wheel, a push-button AM/FM radio, and a heater. This XKE roadster is now offered in Missouri on dealer consignment with a boot cover, rubber floor mats, and a clean Illinois title.
The car was repainted in 2007, reportedly in the factory color of Pale Primrose, and fitted with a replacement black soft top. Details include sealed-beam open headlights, a driver-side mirror, wraparound chrome bumpers, triple windshield wipers, a louvered clamshell hood, and dual exhaust outlets.
Chrome-finished 15″ wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-offs and are mounted with Pirelli P400 Touring tires. Braking is provided by four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rear rotors. Koni shocks are fitted up front.
The bucket seats are upholstered in black leather and joined by a color-coordinated center console, door panels, and carpets. Interior appointments include a locking glovebox, a push-button AMFM radio, and a heater.
The wood-rimmed steering wheel frames Smiths instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5k-rpm redline, while readouts for voltage, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level are housed in the center of the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 86k miles, and true mileage is unknown.
The 4.2-liter inline-six was factory equipped with dual Zenith-Stromberg carburetors and rated at 246 horsepower and 263 lb-ft of torque when new.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Corrosion is noted on underbody components.
