THE MOTORCAR OFFERED
Manufactured in July 1962, this stunning Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Roadster Series 1, presented here in a gorgeous and rare factory color combination, Opalescent Silver Blue with Red interior, along with black soft-top.

First in display to English imports, then transferred to a Jaguar dealer in Albuquerque, New Mexico and sold to its first owner, Dr. Wayne Peay, a local orthodontist. Shortly after, Dr. Peay sold the car to his good friend, Dr. Edward Johnson, an Albuquerque urologist, in the late 60s, who kept the car for 40+ years. According to his family, Dr. Ed purchased the car as a gift for his wife, Alice, a former nurse, who was the main driver of the car until she passed away in 2014, after 56 years of marriage.

In 1982, the car was repainted in Sudden Royal Blue, very much like the color of the Queen Elizabeth Jubilee Jaguar recently unveiled. Dr. Edward Johnson passed away in 2018, when the car was showing 81,000 miles on the odometer.

In 2020, a garage sale was held by Dr. Johnson's two sons. The E-Type was found buried under boxes and bicycles, and finally sold to its current owner, known to be specialized in early E-Type restoration. The car was very original and complete with no visible damage or rust, which made it a perfect candidate for a full nut and bolt restoration. The restoration was performed by a marque specialist over 2+ years.

The car was disassembled and taken to bare metal, the engine, transmission, and rear end were rebuilt, and the car was resprayed in its original Opalescent Blue, with an Original Spec red leather interior installed. A gear reduction starter was also installed, as were an alloy radiator, heater core, and overflow tank. Suspension parts were powder coated or cadmium plated, and the car received an electronic ignition, a partial tool kit, and EDC Green brakes. The car also got a stainless exhaust system and modern alternator conversion, among other subtle improvements to improve reliability and performance. The car has been driven about 600 miles since the work was completed.

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?
