1967 JAGUAR E-TYPE TWO-SEATER COUPE. 4.2 LITERS. SERIES ONE. 4-SPEED. CHROME WIRE WHEELS. ORIG PRIMROSE YELLOW WITH BLACK TRIM. 

KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS offers for sale, here on Ebay, a complete 1967 Jaguar E-type 4.2 Liter Fixed Head Coupe for full restoration. This car is totally complete except for the bonnet headlamp chrome rings, glass covers, and motif bar (which are all easily available). The car is fitted with an earlier E-type 4.2 engine block and a later Series Two or replacement cylinder head. The body tag and chassis numbers match the original data plate. The car is a very good candidate for full restoration. Some rust repair is needed. The car appears to have left the factory finished in Primrose Yellow with black trim. It is a very original car, having never been taken apart.  
The front floors have received new dipped floor sections. The previous owner removed the outer LH rocker panel or sill for replacement, and the inner structures and supports look very good. The RH side also needs to be replaced, but these items are fairly straightforward and typical for an E-type. The bonnet has sustained some damage on the right front. This can be repaired by a capable panel beater or replaced with another center section. The door skins could use a lower panel on both sides. There is some rust repairable rust in the tail section and trunk floor. The car's underside is reasonable with good trailing arm pickup and jacking points. The front subframes looks very straight and in decent order. A complete stripdown and blasting of the body would be in order for a restoration of great results. 
Mechanically, the car appears very complete. There is an extra parts photo that includes items not pictured on the engine, but are present. The data plate is original and correct for the car. The current fitted engine has a blocked stamped with an earlier 4.2 number than the one that is listed on the data. The cylinder head has no number stamped, indicating it is a later or replacement unit. I haven't tried to turn the engine. I presume it is stuck, and would need a rebuild. All of the rest of the mechanical components appear correct for the car. 
All trim items are present except those noted earlier. The gauges, seats, interior, chrome trim, steering wheel, etc. are all correct. All of the glass is present and is in reasonable shape. 
Overall, this car is a good candidate for a ground-up restoration. It is very complete and correct. It is the highly desirable 4.2 Liter Triple-carb, enclosed headlamp, Series One model which is very much sought after at present. This coupe retains the spectacular lines of the earlier model with the conveniences of improved seats, a full syncromesh gearbox, the torquier 4.2 engine, better brakes and electrical system.  It is a great investment going forward. 
This car is located in Southern California and can be viewed by appointment. It is sold with a clear title. $26,500.

Lister Knobbly returning to limited production for 60th anniversary

Sat, Feb 1 2014

Lister Cars was one of the pedigree names of British racing from its founding in 1954 and then on and off until the early 2000s. The company combined its own lightweight chassis with engines from other manufacturers, many of them British (and especially from Jaguar). Last year, the name and the intellectual property were sold to a new company that planned to revive the brand. For Lister's 60th anniversary, it is building a new version of one of its most famous racecars, the 1958 Lister-Jaguar Knobbly. The 2014 Listers are built to the exact specifications of the original cars, and the aluminum bodies are hand-formed on the original jigs. It is offered in racing trim starting at 249,000 pounds ($409,618) and is certified for FIA historic racing. There's also a road-legal version starting at 259,000 pounds ($426,060), if you don't intend to race but do intend to drive. There are two engines available, just like in the original car. A reproduction Jaguar D-Type 3.8-liter inline-six with dry-sump lubrication pumps out 330 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque with a four-speed Jaguar gearbox. The other option is a 4.6-liter Chevy V8 with 315 hp and 290 lb-ft with a four-speed manual transmission. The Chevy-engined version also gets a slightly altered body with a higher hood to clear the engine. The first 2014 Listers will be delivered in the UK this April. Unlike many of these boutique sportscars, the racing version will be available to US buyers, but Lister won't federalize the road version due to the high cost. Scroll down to get all of the details about the revived racer. LISTER MOTOR COMPANY LAUNCHES NEW 60th ANNIVERSARY BROCHURE AS THE ORDER BOOKS BEGIN TO FILL New 60th Anniversary Lister Jaguar brochure now available 50 per cent of 2014 production already sold First cars to be delivered in April, 2014 Road-going variant to be offered at GBP259,000 + tax Race-going version to be GBP249,000 + tax. Following the recently announced purchase of the Lister Motor Company in May 2013, the company is delighted to announce that it has now published its 60thAnniversary Lister Jaguar brochure, which fully outlines the specifications for its fantastic recreation of the iconic Lister Jaguar 'Knobbly' racing car.

Jaguar XE hits the 'Ring wearing swirly camo

Wed, 21 May 2014

Jaguar is happy to show off its new XE sedan on its social media sites, but when testing at the Nürburgring, it's a very different story. These spy shots show the new model in camouflage to make it much harder to discern, but there are still some intriguing details to pick out.
These photos give us a really good look at the XE's quirky rear end. The sedan has a super short trunk that almost fools you into thinking its a notchback, but the top edge of the trunk is clearly visible. It's a somewhat odd-looking design with the rear glass running underneath the roof's overhang to create an integrated spoiler. Despite the camo, the front end is the same as ever with a blunt edge and sharp headlights. Jag certainly isn't afraid to try something a little different compared to the XE's competitors, notably the BMW 3 Series and Audi A4.
Some technical details about the XE are already established. This 3 Series-fighter is slated to go on sale in foreign markets in 2015 and in the US in 2016. We know that it ride's on Jag's new aluminum platform that also underpins the C-X17 crossover concept, and power comes from a pair of 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines, available in petrol- or diesel-fueled configurations.

Say goodbye to Jaguar's vestigial oval grille

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Jaguar has been on a campaign to replace any and all retro cues with modern ones. Just look at the current XJ and the one it replaced, or the XF and the S-Type that came before it and you'll know what we mean. The one remnant is the XK and its oval grille, in and of itself a throwback to Jags of old (which started to look more like a certain Star Wars alien in above-pictured XKR-S form). But don't expect it to hang around.
Newer Jaguars have been ditching the oval aperture for a more squared-off one, and the next XK will have to fall in line. But don't expect that to be the only change in store for the next-generation Jaguar coupe and convertible.
With the new F-Type now holding the more enthusiast-oriented ground, the next XK is expected to grow bigger, softer and more luxurious. That will likely mean a more commodious back seat as well, though that shouldn't be hard to do considering the lack of space in the back of the current model...
