Description
Jaguar E Type S1 4. 2 - 1968 open headlight S1 FHC. US car imported by me in 2019. Converted to RHD in 2020.
Car is absolutely stunning. Refined colour combination.
Total history, masses of documentation. Engine was rebuilt and has little mileage since, smooth as silk. Mileage now is 63000. Immense power and fun.
The axle is still US spec. so acceleration is super impressive. I have a UK spec. crown and pinion to go with the car - this was my next job along with Coopercraft fronts..
Many upgrades including 123 ignition, high torque starter, full SS exhaust and new exhaust and inlet manifolds and rebuilt triple SU's. New floors and sills 1991. Glass out 190 hour respray in 2016 along with new interior leather, headlining and vredestein tyres.
I also have an XK120 and I love them both but one has to go and I can't decide which one. They are both very different but equally brilliant in their own way.
