*Part-completed restoration project retaining its original interior
*Extensive selection of spares included
*Believed-genuine 47,000 miles

A part-completed restoration project ripe for finishing-off, this 1967 Jaguar E-type fixed-head coupe, sold new by Henlys in London has history tracing back to it being registered in Bournemouth and in 1969 being bought by an Oxfordshire resident who in turn sold it to a member of the vendor's family in 1978. Today this part-competed restoration project has the benefit of many SNG Barrett-supplied spares and the engine is said to be running.

Coming with a large number of spares supplied by SNG Barrett and having known history from new, this is a highly worthwhile and rewarding project with the benefit of the engine reported to be running. Retaining it's original interior in good condition and fitted with it's original matching-numbers engine and cylinder head.
