1972 Jaguar E-type XKE Series 3 V-12

FOR RESTORATION, MOST WORK COMPLETE

This 1972 Jaguar XKE Series III Roadster is a 4-speed manual example finished in beautiful Signal Red over a black leather interior. It features optional chrome wire rims, optional stock AC and power steering. Engine and transmission are completely stock as is the interior which is in very nice original condition.

The E-type now being offered was originally a LHD 2+2 converted to a Roadster. Conversion is clean and professional. The car is running and driving although the car will require a full going through before use on the open road. The engine is nice and quiet and has good oil pressure, it starts quickly and idles smoothly. A full tune-up would further benefit the car.

This E-type V-12 is offered as a running driving restoration project (mostly complete), therefore it does have some bodywork that will need addressing at some point. This Jag may be driven and enjoyed while restoration work is finished. While structurally sound, it will require a pair of radius arms (rear) before high use. Both driver and passenger floors have been replaced as have several other panels in and around fire wall and transmission tunnel. Many other repairs and replacements have been completed, many new parts purchased and installed.

The car is currently at Sports Car Classics in Newbury Park, CA. Harry Fulford, SCS Proprietor, has had this car for over a year and has done extensive work on it. Harry is a recognized Jaguar specialist and E-type restoration expert. Owner is stretched too thin over several other projects and has elected to allocate scarce resources to other restorations.
