was extremely well maintained.
Purchased from the Estate of the original owner in Pasadena two years ago. No rust anywhere. Chrome in good to great shape. Paint, interior, top and mechanicals had been fairly recently re-done before we got it. We fixed a fuel leak, gave her a thorough cleaning, installed new tires, installed seat belts, tuned her up and enjoyed the dickens out of her. What a joy to drive.

Now it's your turn! A real beauty you can take anywhere without worrying about damaging a $100,000+ restored trailer queen!

Actual mileage must be 106,216 miles, but I have no records that can confirm that. I have a copy of the original pink slip from the original owner, but few other records were available to the Executor of the Estate. Odometer says 06216 miles.

Clear California title, no leans. Own this Original California dream car for a fraction of a restored car.

Our barn find! We purchased this '64 E-Type OTS from the estate of the original owner in Pasadena, CA, three years ago. We did some tune-up work to get it to run, installed new brake and clutch reservoirs, gave it a good cleaning, bought new tires and two good used wheels. Other than that, what you see is what we found. It has been a blast to own and drive, but now must go. We have a copy of the original pink slip, but very little other documentation. We have the original jack, but no tools. The car was very well maintained. Everything was done when needed by the original owner (mechanicals, interior, top). This is not a restored car, but a correctly maintained driver. Runs and drives great. Now we need the garage space. No Reserve!
