Desirable covered-headlight, high taillight design
Restored by Pennsylvania Jaguar specialist Reginald Ray
The Jaguar offered here is a magnificent example of one of the most sought-after versions of the E-Type, the Series 1 4.2-Litre from 1965. It is presented in its original colors of Carmen Red over a tan leather interior, and of course, it sports chrome wire wheels. This E-Type offers the above-mentioned mechanical improvements but retains the original design's most appealing stylistic features, such as covered headlights, a small grille opening, turn signal lights and taillights above the delicate horizontal blade bumpers, and exhaust tips that protrude under the number plate in the rear.
The consignor notes that Lance Pittack purchased this car from Raymond Ray, owner of Concours Jaguar Restoration in Gilbertsville, Pennsylvania, about 17 years ago in restored condition. Mr. Pittack, a well-known collector in Omaha, Nebraska, enjoyed the car for several years but decided to further enhance it to true show-condition in the early 2000s. His restoration specialists installed a new bonnet, rectified a few remaining small issues in the body, and ultimately repainted the car as it is finished today. The interior was left as-is, as it did not need any work at the time.
Currently showing 45,825 miles, which are believed to be original, this stunningly detailed Series 1 Roadster is ready to show and drive.

Very very nice restoration. Hopefully they will find a proper tachometer with a 5000 redline instead of the 3.8 5500 one.
