1963 JAGUAR E-TYPE XKE 3.8 LITER SERIES ONE FIXED HEAD COUPE
KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS offers for sale a very decent Jaguar E-type for restoration. This car has lived most or all of its life in the Western part of the United States. It appears to have left the factory in the very desirable color scheme of Golden Sand or Bronze with a beige or light tan interior color - very attractive and elegant for an early coupe. The car is a great restoration project having a very solid monocoque bodyshell with only minimal rust. The main floors are very solid and rustfree and with the original sheetmetal, as seen by the photos. There is some rust-through on the trunk floor underneath, just under the spare tire supports (photo), and very little around the rear wheel well edge where it ties in to the trunk. The rockers appears very solid, with only some bubbling starting on the lower RH rear (photo). There is some localized rust-through on the RH wheel arch. The battery area needs a minor repair. The rest of the monocoque looks excellent, solid, and original with no welding ever been carried out on it. There appears to be a some body repair in the past, just ahead of the LH door. Overall, this bodyshell should require only minimal work in repairs before it is sent to the bodyshop. The car is currently fitted with a correct 3.8 E-type transmission mated to a later 4.2 liter engine (#7E5335-8). The car is missing some parts that are available new or used. The car was partially disassembled in the past and those parts were carefully boxed. There are several boxes of lots of components that are original to the car. Everything I have for the car is pictured and now carefully boxed up to include with the car. Please look at those photos in detail, as everything will be included with the sale of the car. Large items that are missing are the complete bonnet assembly with supporting subframe, triple carburetor setup with manifold and air cleaner, radiator, front and rear windshield with chrome trim, rear taillights and bumpers, RH sheetmetal door skin (the rest of the door is there), radio console, and maybe some small engine bay and chrome trim items. Please look at the photos in detail to see what is included. The car still retains it's original data plate and is sold with a clear and current CA title. Overall, this car presents a good opportunity to secure a hugely desirable Jaguar E-type 3.8 Liter Fixed Head Coupe, for sensible entry-level money. Over time, one can source the missing items for the restoration. The final result will prove to be a very rewarding and worthwhile endeavor, as these cars continue to escalate in price and become great investments. This car can be viewed in Southern California. Please note that I reserve the right to end this offering at any time, as it is also being advertised elsewhere. $21,500. KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS. 909-920-9221, work. 909-241-1051, cell. |

Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships
Thu, 29 Nov 2012Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.
Top Gear caught filming Best of British near Buckingham Palace
Mon, 24 Jun 2013YouTuber and car-fan extraordinaire Shmee probably had very little trouble tracking down the Top Gear film crew recently, as the group was putting together an episode that could accurately be described as "excessive." With its flag-waving (literally) Best of British theme, the TG guys gathered a jaw-dropping array of British cars, and parked them all right in front of Buckingham Palace to make extra sure that the point was driven home.
Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May were outfitted with a trio of Jaguar F-Types festooned with gigantic Union Jacks, with which to survey the landscape of British motoring glory. In the video below, you'll see that this includes any number of Mini, Aston Martin, Lotus, McLaren, Land Rover, Bentley and Rolls-Royce models (just to name a few), as well as a healthy dose of weird stuff that most people would never guess at being built in the UK. The lawnmowers and military vehicles are especially cool.
2017 Jaguar electric SUV to draw stylistically from C-X75
Tue, Nov 17 2015Jaguar is gearing up to launch its first all-electric model. And given the direction the industry is going – to say nothing of previous reports – it should come as little surprise that it'll be an SUV. And though details are few and far between at this point, some information is beginning to surface. According to British publication Autocar, the forthcoming electric crossover will draw its stylistic inspiration from the C-X75 concept. For those who may not recall (or haven't seen the new Bond flick), the C-X75 was Jaguar's idea for a hybrid hypercar to compete with the likes of the McLaren P1, Porsche 918 Spyder, and LaFerrari. After initial plans for a turbine powertrain were scrapped in favor of a small twin-charged four-cylinder hybrid, plans for production were ultimately shelved. But the vehicle resurfaced for a starring role in the new 007 film Spectre. If the decision to put a defunct concept in a new movie struck you as odd, reports of the electric crossover's design direction may cast it in new light. By putting the C-X75's design in the public spotlight, Jaguar Land Rover could be preparing us for the SUV's arrival. But then that could prove entirely speculative at this point. The model is set to slot in, size-wise, beneath the new F-Pace, and join a new wave of electric crossovers coming to market. The Tesla Model X will be first when it launches next year, and Audi is expected to launch its Q6 E-Tron Quattro in 2018. The Jaguar could split the difference and surface as soon as 2017. Volvo is also tipped to be preparing an electric crossover based on the XC90 to follow in 2019 as well. It may be too early to speculate on the electric powertrain that will motivate the new Jaguar, tipped to be dubbed E-Pace. However reports that parent company Tata is developing lightweight electric in-wheel hub motors could give us an idea of the direction in which Jaguar could head. Expect it to borrow its aluminum platform from the XE and F-Pace, with production potentially to be undertaken by Magna Steyr in Austria. Of course, the E-Pace won't be the company's only EV. It has several prototypes in the works, and we can expect it to roll out additional production models in the coming year.
