1970 Jaguar E-Type Series II 4.2 Roadster For Sale

EVG 443H was manufactured on the 5th February 1970 and is a matching numbers car that was despatched new by British Leyland, New York, USA. Converted to UK engine specification on triple carburettors and more recently converted to RHD, this stunning E-Type Roadster comes to us with an impressive, detailed history file and is in excellent mechanical condition driving superbly. The E-Type arrived in the UK in 2018 and unlike many Jaguars arriving from the US, it did not need any major work having had a huge amount of expenditure over the past 20 years, and more recently in 2021 had a program of cosmetic work to include a bare metal re-paint and extensive engine bay detailing that has taken the car to an exceptional standard.
In 1999 the E-Type was purchased from K&K Vintage Motors LC in Houston Texas and its new owner then spent thousands of dollars over the next ten years taking the E-Type to an exceptional standard mechanically. In 2000 Vintage Jag Works in Idaho supplied the owner with triple SU carburettors and manifold set and the 4. 2 engine was rebuilt and balanced. In 2006 Classic Jaguar in Austin, Texas looked after the car and once again thousands of dollars were spent. The E-Type was treated to a new clutch plate, they rebuilt the front suspension with new bushes, ball joints and torsion bars, overhauled the braking system and cooling system. Classic Jaguar continued with the mechanical restoration, removing and re-conditioning the fuel system and in 2007 the rear suspension and differential assembly were removed and rebuilt as required.

Later in 2007 having had a huge amount of mechanical restoration work, the owner had new wheel bearings, splined hubs and chrome wire wheels fitted to the car, all supplied by XK's Unlimited in California. In 2009 further expense went into a new engine and dash wiring loom, major engine compartment detailing work, new alternator, tie rod end boots, various new hoses, speedometre rebuild and the dashboard controls were all re-conditioned. Having owned the car for 13 years and having seemingly enjoyed improving the car, it was sold on in 2013 and transported to Florida. Its new owner, a classic car enthusiast regularly attending events kept the car until it came to the UK in 2018.

Since its time in the UK, the E-Type has had a new alternator, regular servicing, new seat foams and replacement mohair hood and chrome trims. Various seals and gaskets have been replaced but in 2021 its most recent owner made the decision to convert the car to RHD, and carry out a bare metal re-paint with a Jaguar specialist. The engine was removed from the vehicle and with full access to the space frame and bulk head, the engine compartment was taken to a very high standard with various ancillaries detailed. Since completion the Jaguar has covered minimal mileage, proving totally reliable and driving superbly. On the road the car feels fantastic with lovely direct, tight and precise handling, the engine is incredibly fit holding excellent oil pressure and offering superb performance from the 4. 2 unit. The all synro gearbox is a delight to use and the car feels very well sorted. The bodywork is excellent, it has a good strong shell, gleaming high quality paintwork, impressive chrome, and a well presented interior. EVG 443H has just arrived with us and is having some minor interior improvements before coming to the showroom. Please enquire for further details or an early viewing.
