1967 JAGUAR E-TYPE XKE SERIES ONE 4.2 LITER 2+2 COUPE. 4-SPEED. WIRE WHEELS. ORIG OPALESCENT SILVER GRAY WITH BLACK TRIM.

Up for sale, here on Ebay from KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS, is a 1967 Jaguar E-type 2+2 Coupe. This car is a full numbers-matching example, with a 4-speed and wire wheels. It left the factory in the very attractive color scheme of Opalescent Silver Gray with Black leather trim. It is a very complete car with nothing missing. It was painted only once during it's lifetime in it's current white color, which has now been sanded down a bit. The interior trim is highly original including what's left of the seats, carpets, headliner, panel kit, etc.

The car has the original, believed rebuilt engine that was completed as the first step to the previous owner's restoration efforts. The car has clean oil, full up to the mark. There are plenty of new gaskets fitted. The engine overall is very clean and tidy, and appears to have new core plugs and a painted block and head. After a battery and fuel, It was started up and running for about a few minutes with no noises and a very healthy tick over. It turns over on the starter with very nice, even compression. After some brake work and a cleaning of the fuel system, it may even drive well. There is a small leak in the front timing cover needing repair. The water pump is currently removed, and a new water pump is supplied. There is a newer exhaust system fitted to the car. The current recorded mileage reads around 77,000 which could very well be correct.

Overall the body of the car is extremely solid. There are a few, very minor rust "cracks", about 2 inches long, around the lower front rockers and one around the LH wheelarch. The floors are perfectly solid, as well as the trunk and underside. The bonnet has been bumped in the nose and repaired once, but lines up very nicely along the bulkhead with good fit. The driver side door hinge has some wear. All of the body panels are original to the car. There is the occasional dent here and there.

This fairly desirable Series One, 4.2 Liter 2+2 E-type has matching numbers with a 4-speed gearbox with triple carbs, toggle switches, and the open headlights. This was a feature on the late '67 produced cars. This car offers excellent value when compared to the two-seater Coupe model from the same year. It's approximately half the price. It is a very good, original car for straightforward restoration. It's original color scheme is very desirable, and offers the bonus of a rebuilt engine. A very good and economical opportunity to secure a good Jaguar E-type Series One example. This car is located in Southern California and can be viewed by appointment. It is sold with a clear and current CA title. $21,500.

Seven-figure cars highlight day one of RM's Monterey auction

Sat, 17 Aug 2013

RM Auctions is one of several houses holding auctions during the Monterey weekend, and Friday night's festivities got quite pricey. Seven-figure vehicles were not at all uncommon during the first day of the two-day event, with the 1953 Ferrari 375 MM Spider, seen above, crossing the block for $9,075,000.
Other big earners included a pair of rare Ferraris, a 1950 166 MM Barchetta and a 1955 750 Monza Spider, which took $3,080,000 and $4,070,000, respectively. Outside of the red Italians, a 1939 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special captured $7,480,000 while a stunning, color-appropriate 1955 Jaguar D-Type took $3,850,000. We've got images of these vehicles, and a few other stunning examples of last night's auction, in the gallery above.
Thought it seems impossible, tonight's auction is expected to see even more high-dollar action. The winner of the 2012 Pebble Beach Concours, a 1928 Mercedes-Benz 680S Torpedo Roadster is expected to command over $10 million. Also crossing the block will be a car we reported on a few weeks back - a supremely rare 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder. One of only 10 in the world, it's expected to take anywhere from $14 to $17 million when it hits the stage tonight.

Exploring Romania's storied Transfagarasan Highway in a Jaguar F-Type V8 S

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

Top Gear is, in some ways, a victim of its own success. When it declares a road the best in the world, like it did with Romania's Transfagarasan Highway during its 14th season, you can't blame people for showing up and wanting to check it out. Of course, then the road becomes clogged with tourists and is less fun to drive.
But is it possible that there is an even better driving road in Romania? One that is higher, smoother and undiscovered by tourists - at least not yet? Henry Catchpole from Evo thinks that he may have found it while driving a Jaguar F-Type V8 S that makes a sound that evokes a World War II British fighter plane.
Scroll down to take a brief trip to Romania and bask in the wonderful roar of this topless Jaguar.
