Magnificent and rare example of Jaguar Type E Series 1 coupe from 1966.
This car, equipped with its famous 4. 2l 6-cylinder in-line engine with three SU carburettors, has been completely restored to the highest standard by an internationally renowned Californian specialist.
It is extremely rare to be faced with such a meticulous restoration, down to the bolt, using only original Jaguar parts.
This example was sold new on February 25, 1966 by the Jaguar dealership in New York to Mr and Mrs Wood. It then left for New Mexico in 2003 and then bought by Mr Haig Petrossian in 2009. This E-Type specialist, recognized in the United States, has restored numerous models for nearly 40 years.
It took him two years for this one. An exceptional restoration.
At the end of this, the car will be purchased by the son of a former Parisian Jaguar dealer, who came simply for the expertise, but fell under the spell.
This will mark his return to Europe. It is today, and has been since 2016, owned by our current client, an informed collector and enthusiast of exceptional automobiles.
All of the original mechanical elements have been revised and restored from A to Z (steering, clutch, engine block, carburetion, electrical harness, etc.)
On the body side, the body was stripped and sandblasted. Painting redone in original color.
The interior and upholstery have been redone strictly as originally (seat and door trim, headliner, dashboard, trunk).
It has its original steering wheel, restored and kept separately because it is fragile.
A complete invoice file is available.
Probably one of the most beautiful 4. 2l of the moment.
Confirmed by a double expertise, making it possible to attest to the authenticity of the original mechanical elements (matching), and the quality of the restoration.
Visible by appointment only.
