Additional description:
Lot 003
Pebble Beach 2015
Numbered 1E12816, this roadster is a personal export delivery vehicle purchased new by A.G. Thompson of California and retained by the Thompson family over the next four-and-a-half decades. Acquired by the consignor as an excellent survivor with low indicated mileage, the E-Type benefits handsomely from an extensive rotisserie restoration, including NOS parts, proper metal-finishing, careful attention to panel fit, and a bare-metal refinish in its original-specification of Opalescent Silver Blue accented by triple-plated chrome. The interior was restored to match with new custom-tailored materials, and the top bows were fully restored before being fitted with a new custom-sewn and well-fitted convertible top. All instruments, knobs, switches, and the Blaupunkt radio were also restored. The engine, carburetors, and gearbox were even rebuilt, and the driveshaft was balanced. Finished with chrome wire wheels and documented by a JDHT certificate confirming original data, this late Series I Roadster is simply an outstanding example of a true legend.

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?
