Sellers description:
1963 Jaguar XKE Series One Coupe.
VIN # 888467
Miles 71,083
4 speed

This is a numbers matching original series one xke with the triple carburator set up.
Red with black leather interior. We aquired it from a large collector car collection.
The paint and body are in excellent condition.The under panels, that are prone to rust are all dry according to our inspection.
To our knowledge it has never been crashed in front or rear. Rare for these cars!!
Panels fit very well on all doors and bonnet. Chrome and Seals are all in excellent condition as is the original Triplex glass. Windshield was replaced along with all seals. Rear glass seals are all in excellent condition also.
We guess [because we don't have any records] that all the restoration was performed within the last 5 to 8 yrs and driven very low miles since. [We specialize in selling these XKE'S].
Engine and drive line is very fresh with excellent oil pressure.
Rear end cage has been out of car and completly detailed with powder coating.
Suspension is tight and firm with excellent driving feel.
Interior is still in great condition with the correct Wilton Wool English carpets.
Comes with Michelin Red line original radials.
No tools but has original jack and knock off hammer.
We currently have this car listed at $35,000 on our web site but willing to take less to make room for more inventory.
This a very clean example that is ready to be driven immediatly.

This particular example has undergone a complete frame off restoration approximately 7 years ago. It is all numbers matching, has a wonderful high quality paint finish, excellent bright work, superbly finished interior and the mechanicals are up to factory new specifications. The car runs very strong and smooth. We will be glad to supply you with the Jaguar Heritage Certificate.
