1971 Jaguar E-Type Series II 4.2 Roadster
Estimate: $ 80,000 - $ 90,000
Chassis no. 2R13640
This highly desirable Series II roadster from 1971 is beautifully presented in an all-stock manner after benefitting from a thorough restoration approximately five years ago. The 4.2-liter, 246-hp DOHC six-cylinder engine is mated to a four-speed manual gearbox, and four-wheel disc brakes provide the stopping. It is reported to have just over 37,000 actial miles.
The Jaguar looks splendid in black with tan leather interior and wool carpet. The car displays an uncommon removable hardtop, also in black, as is the vinyl soft-top. Equipment is plentiful and includes period-correct air conditioning, seatbelts, Phillips radio, boot, jack, spare, stainless steel exhaust, chrome wire wheels and Michelin redline tires. The E-Type provides a wonderful driving experience owing to its excellent road manners.

Seller's description:
ASKING PRICE $179,500
Vehicle Location St. Louis, Missouri 63146
VIN # 2R13640
Condition Good
One of the finest Series II roadsters extant this very late production XKE was dispatched from Coventry on January 29 1971 at the very end of production before Jaguar switched over to the larger Series 3 cars. The car remained with its original owner until circa 1976 when it was purchased by a young enthusiast who would keep the car for over thirty years performing a full ground up nut and bolt restoration to concours standards completed on October 6 2006. The very next day it was loaded in a trailer and entered in the AACA Hershey show where it achieved its National First Place Junior award and returned to Hershey in 2007 and achieved its Senior award.Originally finished in light blue over dark blue leather the restorer wanted the car to stand out from the myriads of E Types out there and chose to restore the car in one of Jaguars most striking combinations of black with tan leather. The fit and finish are superb with excellent detailing chrome and brightwork. The interior is fabulous and the level of detail continues featuring a period Philips AM/FM/SW radio as well as correct air conditioning that blows cold. Jaguar improved the seat design for the Series 2 adding adjustable headrests and reclining backrests that better accommodate taller drivers and allow for superior long-distance comfort. The telescoping column carries over from the earlier cars as does the gorgeous three-spoke wood-rimmed steering wheel. The original instruments and switchgear of this car are in good condition and the carpets are excellent. Finishing off the superb cockpit is a black convertible top and this car also features a rare original hardtop which really sets the car off.Of course the car retains its original matching number engine per the Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate which was rebuilt during the restoration by the experts at Leydon Restorations in Pennsylvania. The highly detailed engine bay includes correct hardware and proper finishes on the air cleaner generator and cooling system. The front picture frame radiator support displays the original chassis number which often goes missing during rust or collision repairs. Chrome wire wheels are in similarly fine condition with correct easy clean hub centers and non-eared spinners and period appropriate red line radial tires. The car has been fastidiously maintained since the initial restoration and was recently tuned serviced and detailed and still presents as a very fresh restoration.This exceptional 1971 E-Type Roadster surely ranks among the finest examples of any E-Type ready to stand on the concours green and hold its own against any number of fine automobiles.
