    Auction description:
    Lot 45
    1963 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3.8-Litre Roadster
    Registration no. CBU 343B Chassis no. 879574 Engine no. RA2357-9
    £80,000 - 120,000
    US$ 110,000 - 170,000
    Auction 23589: Goodwood Members' Meeting
    13:00 GMT
    Chichester, Goodwood

    This matching-numbers 'Series 1' E-Type roadster was delivered new to the USA in June 1963 and sold via Jaguar Cars, New York to its first owner, one E C Reicholderfer. The accompanying Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate records the original exterior finish as Opalescent Golden Sand - a rare colour - with Tan interior and Sand hood. Between 1990 and 2012 the car had the same owner in the USA; the intervening owners, if any, are not known.

    While in the USA the E-Type benefited from extensive refurbishment, being treated to a bodywork restoration at MAACO (1990-94); new leather, carpets and Hardura trim from G W Bartlett (1990); new windscreen (1991); new body and trim seals from XKs Unlimited (1991); and re-plated brightwork by Classic Chrome (1992). More recently, in June 2012, the car had the exhaust replaced in the USA and underwent full re-commissioning, the engine, drive train, paint, trim, electrics, suspension and steering all receiving attention. There is a detailed 8-page printout of a $20,000 bill in the extensive file of US history, and the car also comes with handbooks, a UK V5C registration document and an MoT certificate valid until February 2017. Running well, it represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of these iconic British sports cars finished in a particularly rare colour scheme.

    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?
