Sellers description:
West Coast Classics are proud to present an exceptional and very rare and virtually completely original apart from one re-paint and a brand new soft top barn-fresh (garage really!) find!! A completely rust free example of this coveted original California owner's 1973 Jaguar XKE Series III convertible roadster with its V12 engine with 73K original miles and with all of it's original factory specifications and options including original light tan leather interior and carpets and air conditioning and power steering! This beauty still boasts all five original wire wheels and a brand new matching color brown convertible soft top and matching tonneau cover!

Purchased from the daughter of the original owner who passed on in 2011 and previously serviced for many years at the renown 'Steve's Jaguar' Jaguar specialists of Canoga Park, California. The car's engine runs as smooth as silk and the transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears.

The car has no rust whatsoever with the floor boards and all the typical rust-prone areas completely original, solid and rust-free! The car shows no signs of any accidents of any kind and has a completely straight body with only very minor imperfections noticeable upon very close inspection. The car looks extremely impressive with its Sable color paint with a recently reupholstered tan leather interior with the door panels, dashboard, seats and carpets all in very fine condition throughout. The car has a brand new matching color soft top and matching tonneau cover. The four factory chrome wire wheels are also in great shape and the car has an original spare wire wheel located in the trunk.

This is a rare opportunity to own a completely rust free example of an obviously always garaged 1973 Jaguar XKE V12 E-Type Roadster in very fine condition throughout - with only one mature and careful southern California owner since new!
