1969 Jaguar E-type Xke Coupe Restored New Paint, Interior on 2040-cars

1969 JAGUAR XKE E-TYPE COUPE (not a 2+2 coupe)

Listed for sale by Coventry Garage LLC is a numbers matching, 1969 JAGUAR E-TYPE or XKE COUPE with its original engine and drive train THAT IS IN BEAUTIFUL RUSTFREE CONDITION. This car just had a new (stripped to bare metal) paint job in the original Willow Green color. We are asking a very reasonable $41,000.00 for this car. This car has only 74900 miles on it and the VIN# is 1R26410.

This car has a brand new clutch and slave cylinder, oil and filter change, 5 new Bridgestone 205 X 15” tires, four new rear springs, 6 KONI shocks, new stainless steel exhaust, new rubber gaskets, new clutch bottles, new clutch hoses, new bottles and brake sending units, new brake flex hoses, radiator professionally flushed and pressure tested, new Otter switch on radiator to turn rad fans on, engine compartment detailed, engine tuned with Pertronix ignition and much more. The black leather interior is in  very nice condition but is not new; the seats have been re-done in black leather as original, nice door panels, new carpets, no cracks in dash, just refinished console/arm rest that looks great and its original steering wheel in nice condition. The underside of the car is in near perfect condition with new floors and rocker panels welded in- no holes, no soft spots, very good definition on all metal surfaces- no rust issues underneath at all.

The body is in VERY nice condition- we have found no rust in the fenders, sills, doors, bonnet or trunk- NO RUST FOUND! NO EVIDENCE OF ANY ACCIDENTS EITHER. We have many more photos of the floors and trunk that we can send to you. We just had the car re-painted; our body man said that this is one of the best, most rust free British cars that he has ever worked on! He stripped the car to bare metal, primed, painted, and clear coated the car. IT LOOKS GREAT! This car is finished to a very nice driver quality standard.

Mechanically the car runs great; shifts easily, starts quickly, brakes nicely. The car only shows 74900 miles on the working odometer. The chrome is in nice condition but shows some scratches on the flat surfaces. The 5 chrome wire wheels are in nice condition but are original to the car and are not perfect. The car is missing one right rear tail light chrome clamshell finisher. The radio and its surround are missing and NOT with the car. The headliner is in nice original condition and not falling down but shows some wear. The dash has no cracks. The steering wheel has been recoated in polyurethane. The lights and gauges all work. This car has a brand new spare tire and original matching wire wheel and a car cover. No jack or tool kit. The exhaust manifolds have been JETCOATED.

The VIN# is1R26410 and you can see more history and photos on the "XKE DATA" website. We included many photos of the restoration process so you can see how far we went with the 20 month restoration process. We made this car a "driver" not a Concours trailer queen. We are Concours Judges and members of the Jaguar Clubs of North America and members of our local Jaguar Club of Pittsburgh.

If you like, we can give you names of local British restorers/mechanics that you can contract with to assess this Jaguar XKE for you (at your expense). If you fly into Pittsburgh, we can pick you up at the Pittsburgh International Airport. All shipping arrangements and expenses will be paid by the buyer. The car will not be shipped until all funds clear our bank. This car is for sale locally so we reserve the right to end this auction at any time.
