I am selling my cherished Jaguar E-Type after 7 years of summer only driving. The Jag was restored between 1998 - 2000 and in again 2008. It has been driven only in the summer, never in the rain. The body was fully restored using Martin Robey panels. The interior was completely replaced with a complete interior kit from Bartlet of Ohio. The engine received a top-end rebuild. Engine is fed by 3 SU's fully rebuilt by Apple Hydraulics. All bright work has either been replaced or re-chromed. The Jag was restored to originally specifications with the exception of the following modifications: gear reduction starter, new Cool Cat fans, contemporary sound, Mallory electronic ignition and spin-off oil filter. This car is an above average driver and will be a real joy to the new owner as it has been for me. The Jag has taken first place in multiple car shows. During the 2008 work, the clutch was replaced, the hand brake assembly was completely rebuilt and new brakes were installed all around. Also in 2008 the original 5" chrome wires were in poor shape and were replaced by 6" Hendrix wires with new chrome knock-offs and new Pirelli tires, all body panels were pulled and repainted by Autowerks; the switches and gauges were replaced or made operable, all seals, hoses, clamps, rubber etc. were replaced. Car maintains perfect factory oil pressure, water temperature and idle RPM.
