I'm selling this car for my Father. It's been in our family 25 years.
This car has never been restored. It has been repainted once and had it's leather seats recovered. This was done back in the early 1990's. The car has a factory hardtop. This car is considered the last of the series one cars, having all the desirable features of the series one cars, Triple SU's, slim bumpers and lights, toggle switches with one of the first open headlight bonnets.
This car is in very nice condition, very solid, rust free and always been in San Diego, Ca.. The paint is twenty years old and still looks great. There are a few minor flaws. There is some shrinkage on the bonnet near the headlight buckets, a couple of repaired paint chips on the edge of the trunk lid. Overall the car looks great and these areas are hardly noticeable. The chrome is excellent. The Hardtop has never been restored, is all original and in nice shape. The black paint is thin in places. I've just replaced some of the rubber seals. The car also has the AMCO bumpers that fit between the overiders, I just took them off.
The interior is also very nice with everything being correct. The center console is the only area that shows some wear, which is minor. The stereo isn't hooked up and does pull out leaving a neat hole. Everything in this car works with the exception of the small clock in the tach. The top was also replaced in the early 1990's, is in great shape and the back window clear. It's spent most of it's life folded down. The top boot is the original, looks fine but is showing some wear. The trunk has a been relined and looks new. The spare is a nice Michelin on a very nice rim. The jack and knock-off hammer are in their bag. There is no tool kit. We never had one.
Mechanically the car is excellent. It runs, drives and stops just like a nice E-type should. Two years ago my wife and I drove this car from Whidbey Island, Wa. to San Diego, Ca. using Highway 1 and 101 as much as we could. The car ran flawlessly, it was a fantastic drive.
Before that trip we replaced all four tires and tubes, the brake master and booster. All the coolant hoses. A new electronic ( pointless ) SU fuel pump and the starter.
Seven years ago I dropped the rear sub frame , resealed the diff. and rebuilt everything else, plus new shocks and calipers front and rear . Steering rack mounts and boots. Drive shaft rebuilt. Converted the car to a spin on oil filter
There was also a valve job done when we first bought the car. My Brother and I owned a British Sports Car shop in San Diego at the time. The mileage of 68,322 is believed to be correct. My father worked overseas and the car spent most of it's life in storage.
It's body tag reads ; Car # 1E15126 , Engine # 7E12765-9 , Body # 4E6911 and Gearbox # EJ134888 .
I never looked at the gearbox, but all the other numbers match including the head and the block. The small silver tag near this reads J/67 .
Overall this is a great E-type. It's a car I have always loved and cared for, hoping it would be mine one day. But it's not to be, so here's your chance. This E-type looks and drives great, but isn't so perfect that you're afraid to use it. It is a 46 year old car, so it's not perfect, just very nice.
If you have any questions please ask them before bidding or even better arrange for a personal inspection. Call Paul at 360-632-1016
SHIPPING is the responsibility of the buyer. I will help in anyway possible. The car is located in Clinton, Washington state. About an hour north of Seattle. Clinton is on Whidbey Island and has good access by ferry.

Balance due in certified U.S. funds via bank wire transfer within 7 days of auction close. We will not release the car until the bank is OK with the transfer. Usually 24 hrs.

Are you the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R-S?
Fri, 23 Aug 2013It's no secret that Jaguar is working on a fixed-roof version of the F-Type roadster, but now it looks like it's also developing a high-performance model for said coupe. Captured sharpening its claws at the Nürburgring, this F-Type Coupe prototype could very well be an R-S or even a more track-ready R-S GT variant.
Our biggest clue suggesting the latter are its massive brake rotors with bright-yellow calipers - similar pieces are also found on the recently introduced XKR-S GT. This would make sense, since a report in May said that Jaguar is looking to create a full line of R-S GT models in a similar fashion as the Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series. Missing from this prototype, though, are the telltale aero add-ons we seen on the XKR-S GT - go-faster bits like the latter's front fascia winglets and rear wing, though this model is obviously still being developed. Regardless of what this new grippier, quicker kitty is called, we say "Yes, please."
This or That: Mercedes S-Class 350SD vs. 2003 Jaguar XJR [w/poll]
Thu, Mar 26 2015Budget. It's a wretched word, whether you're going out to eat, shipping for a new outfit or, more relevant to today's discussion, buying a car. Massive marketing machines have convinced us, as a population, to buy the best you can afford, repercussions be damned – If you've saved up some money, spend it! All of it, on whatever it is that currently sits atop your personal Amazon wishlist, be it a Timex that takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin', a $17,000 Gold Apple Watch or a $60,000 Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. But what if the best you can afford is... say, $12,815? For that price, you can buy a brand-new 2015 Nissan Versa (including destination), assuming you're happy with zero options and a manual transmission. For that price, you'll get standard air conditioning, a CD player and... well, a warranty. Pretty sensible choice, Captain Frugal. But also ridiculously uninspired. And so that brings us to today's edition of This or That, in which two Autoblog editors pick differing sides of an argument and duke it out to see which one of us can convince you, dear reader, is better. Or at least less wrong. You be the judge. As a refresher, I'm two-and-two on these challenges, having lost the first and second editions before storming back in rounds three and four. Today, as alluded to above, we decided to throw our collective brainpower (oh lord, what have we done?) at what may be the single most difficult question currently confounding the best minds our planet has to offer: What is the best used used luxury car you can buy for the price of a 2015 Nissan Versa? Shall we meet our contenders? Allow me to introduce you to the most perfect luxury car money can buy (assuming the amount of money you're holding is equal to the amount of the cheapest new car currently sold in America, the Nissan Versa). My pick is the 1991 Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Not just any S-Class, but the legendary W126, which was produced between 1979 and 1992. And not just any W126, either, but one powered by a 3.5-liter turbodiesel engine. And with that, I send the argument to my esteemed colleague, Associate Editor Chris Bruce. Bruce: Jeremy, we had over $12,000 to budget for this challenge, and the best you can manage is a 24-year-old diesel Mercedes? I love oil-burners as much as any other auto writer with their mountains of torque and huge cruising range, but you're making this too easy on me. Also, you're really choosing a brown, diesel, German luxury sedan?
All-electric Jaguar XJ coming soon on platform shared with 'Road Rover'
Mon, Jun 24 2019We've been posting on the likelihood of electric Jaguars for a while now, especially the XJ leading the charge as a new EV flagship. Rumors at the beginning of 2018 predicted an XJ EV on our doorstep by the end of 2018, the 50th anniversary year of the XJ. By April this year, it was looking like the battery-powered XJ would use the I-Pace platform and make an appearance sometime in 2019. Now, Automotive News Europe reports that during Jaguar Land Rover's Investor's Day presentations, the automaker said it would debut a "large SUV and a large premium sedan" on its Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) suitable for EVs, hybrids and traditional ICE-powered cars. The sedan in question is the next-gen XJ. Nick Rogers, JLR's product engineering boss, said electric MLA vehicles will get 90.2-kWh batteries that return range of up to 400 kilometers (292 miles) on the European cycle. That would effectively be the same size battery as the I-Pace, which rides on its own one-off platform, and the same range; in the U.S., the I-Pace is rated at 234 miles. It's said the XJ's design, produced by former Jaguar design chief Ian Callum and his team, has already been cleared. It swaps the four-door body for a five-door, a la the Audi A7, and introduces a new design language for the car and the carmaker. Car and Driver says the new statement sedan aims to be "a cutting-edge alternative to the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class," and Autocar saying it will "remain Jaguar's flagship in preference to a large SUV, such as the rumored J-Pace." The point of introducing the EV first is to establish the car's technology and sporting credentials — hopefully before the Porsche Taycan and Audi E-Tron GT arrive. Eventually, an ICE version of the XJ powered by an Ingenium inline-six should come; that will welcome buyers not ready to make the all-EV switch, a necessary move in keeping with the XJ's competition for global sales with the S-Class and 7 Series. However, leaving room in the design for a conventional drivetrain will force compromises that the all-electric competition doesn't face. Production of the current XJ ends at the Castle Bromwich facility on July 5. The new sedan is slated to be "announced in the near future" and built at JLR's plant in Solihull, which assembles Land Rover products. The same MLA platform will support a road-focused Land Rover as a sibling to the XJ, dubbed the "Road Rover" internally.
