Auction description:

1962 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3.8-Litre Roadster

Without Reserve

Chassis no. 877151

Engine no. R 5232-9

Body no. R 3660

The 1962 Jaguar Series 1 3.8 Roadster on offer was recently restored by marque specialists in California. This E-Type was primarily a western car, with documented limited ownership and numerous original service receipts to support this. It was restored in its original Carmen Red and black interior, which was matched with a new black convertible top made by trimmers in Classic’s upholstery department. They also installed new interior panels, new carpeting, and new leather on the seats.

The E-Type also received an overhaul of its major systems and components, with the upgrades including a new radiator header tank, a new exhaust system, a new hydraulic system, and much more. To improve performance, it received an electronic ignition system and gear reduction starter, as well as an aluminum radiator. The E-Type's instruments were restored, and the electrical system was serviced or restored where necessary. The car also retains its original AM radio, which is in perfect working order. A Jaguar Daimler Heritage Certificate accompanies the car, along with a DVD of the restoration process.

With an exceptionally well-maintained history and highly collectible status amongst collectors, this example is an excellent choice for the Jaguar collector seeking an early E-Type in a fabulous color combination that they can show, drive, and enjoy.

History and Restoration

This vehicle was delivered by Kaufman Company in Wisconsin on June 28, 1962, to a Mr. Simon. From 1989 until its restoration, it benefited from a clear history thanks to numerous maintenance invoices and other documents carefully preserved, allowing us to trace the journey of this fabulous Jaguar.

After a meticulous restoration a few months ago in the United States, this Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Series 1 is completely new and boasts matching numbers and colors. Each mechanic, bodywork specialist, and upholsterer applied their expertise to ensure that every aspect was handled with meticulous attention to detail and a pursuit of perfection.

We therefore have:

- A DVD that allows us to follow the restoration work step by step, enrich the extensive file of invoices, and continue to document the maintenance and upkeep of this E-Type.

- The original warranty certificate with the vehicle's delivery date, the name and address of the first owner, and the Jaguar dealership at the time.

Vehicle Warranty

The vehicle will be sold serviced and with a 3-month or 5,000 km warranty.
