1962 Jaguar E-Type 'Series 1' 3.8-Litre Roadster

Engine no. R5078-9
*Left hand drive delivery
*Original factory colour combination
*Fully restored by respected marque specialists to superb condition
*JDHT certificate
This superb E-Type Series 1 roadster's accompanying Jaguar Heritage certificate reveals that it was manufactured in April 1962 as an open two-seater in left-hand drive configuration and sold new via Jaguar Cars, New York, USA to Mrs J Daum. The car was supplied as a personal export delivery and first registered in Coventry as '1368 WK'. The original colour scheme is recorded as Opalescent Gunmetal with beige interior trim and black soft-top, the same as it is today.
Imported into the EU in 2014, chassis number '877073' is offered fresh from a painstaking restoration to original specification carried out in the Netherlands by Classic Restoration Services of Vreeland and only completed in August of this year. The restoration included stripping the body to bare metal and making repairs by 'lead loading' in the traditional manner, after which it was re-sprayed in the original livery, while during the engine rebuild the opportunity was taken to upgrade the cylinder head to accept unleaded fuel. Presented in outstanding condition, this fully restored E-Type roadster comes with instruction manuals, tool kit, Jaguar Heritage Certificate, restoration invoices and Netherlands registration papers.
