Sellers description:
Superb XKE. It's a 3.8 liter '64 with all the visual cues that make the original, pure, XKEs appreciated by collectors. It's been restored to concours condition throughout just two years ago with superb cosmetics in dark blue over red leather piped in dark blue and blue cloth top. The engine is bored .030 over for a full 3.8 liters (3,843cc) against the standard XKE's 3,741cc. That aside, all the details have been addressed in addition to the facets of a quality rebuild: high performance starter, high capacity radiator with electric fan, negative ground electrical system, Pertronix ignition, lightened flywheel, heavy duty alternator and stainless steel exhaust. The Moss gearbox is gone, replaced by a full synchro Tremec 5-speed. The fuel system is Holley Red Line open loop fuel injection that looks stock, but runs much better. Chrome wire wheels and red line radial tires on a completely rebuilt suspension and a rebuilt brake system complete the package. This is the best driving E-type in the country. It flies. It is the perfected E-type, but it looks totally stock, although with paint, chrome and interior that are far better than ever came from Coventry. It is an experience and begs to be experienced.
