Have some original documentation on chassis number 1E12809. My paperwork shows as a 1966 sold in West Nyack New York in Aug of 1966. Conflicting paperwork from Foreign Car City - one piece shows the car as
new the other as used. At that point also believe the car was "green". Have the original and complete tool kit that
belonged to this vehicle and willing to sell it.

Michael sold the vehicle to a major auction house 8 years ago who sold the vehicle to its current owner; for whom we are selling the car.

RESTORATION
The body and paint restoration included the engine bay, firewall, bonnet underside, trunk, and the entire exterior. The entire body was disassembled; this level of restoration can be seen in one of the photos. As part of our restoration and quality control process, the car has undergone a complete tune-up. It is READY TO HIT THE ROAD.

CURRENT CONDITION
Exterior Highlights
· Body is straight and panels are strong
· Panel gaps are minimal and consistent
· Glass, lights, and chrome are in excellent condition
· Fitted with Lucas PL headlamps

Interior Highlights
· Fully restored interior: new leather, carpet, and vinyl
· Fully restored rear compartment: spare, tire well, and fuel tank
· Fully restored dashboard: instrumentation, switches, and controls
· Correct Jaguar rubber floor mats

Mechanical Highlights
· Fully restored and polished engine compartment: firewall, chassis, and suspension
· Cylinder head, engine block correctly finished in gold
· Exhaust manifolds are like-new, unmarred porcelain
· Correct windscreen washer fluid tank and fully charged battery

Mechanical Issues, None known

All together, the car is a delight to drive. Due to its proper restoration and recent mechanical quality assessment, the car feels very tight, smooth, and drives like a dream.

Engine: The car starts right up and has a functioning choke
Shifting: Gearbox feels brand new, allowing driver to shift effortlessly without having to worry about the shift linkage or synchromesh.
Brakes: The brakes give direct feedback.
Handling: Suspension is tight and communicative.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
