Most examples of Jaguar's comely cat have been restored by now, and 'ONW 239B' is no exception. The work was undertaken last year by Mark Waud of Yorkshire Classic Cars, who the vendor describes as having 'a formidable reputation for superb workmanship'. When it left the factory, this particular Coupe was finished in Opalescent Golden Sand teamed with Red interior trim. Following a bare metal strip, and refurbishment that included a new front subframe and door skins, the car was repainted in a suitably distinguished shade of Dark Blue and completely retrimmed in contrasting Grey leather. The engine was totally refurbished, the dynamo replaced by an alternator and the four-speed Moss gearbox superseded by a more modern five-speed one (the original is available by separate negotiation). The brakes have been upgraded with Coopercraft parts, while other new items of running gear include dampers, springs, springs and tyres.

The restoration remains sufficiently fresh that the refurbished engine is yet to be run in, and the vendor unsurprisingly still classes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, six-cylinder XK engine and new manual gearbox as all being in 'excellent' condition. The indicated mileage of this now pristine Jaguar stands at an eminently plausible 72,000 miles. Offered with Jaguar heritage certificate and a large collection of invoices, this fine-looking motorcar, 'ONW 239B' is now ready for somebody new to enjoy.

1964 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3.8 Coupe For Sale

Reg. ONW239B

Dealer

United Kingdom

Finished in the beautifully contrasting colour scheme of Opalescent Dark Blue with immaculate Grey interior trim, this car is immediately stunning to look at – and wonderful to sit within. Importantly, however, this is also an example that drives beautifully with super dynamics and performance supplied in part by the installation of a 5-speed gearbox, a recent cylinder head rebuild by WinSpeed to Fast Road specification and upgraded braking. A UK RHD car, it was comprehensively restored during 2015 / 16 by marque specialists with all details held on file.

A well above average 3. 8 E-Type Coupe, highly recommended and perfect for Summer enjoyment!
