SUMMARY
A beautifully presented 1967 Series 1 4.2-litre manual gearbox Roadster with in excess of well over £100,000 spent on restoration by our vendor.
DESCRIPTION
According to its accompanying Heritage Certificate, this Jaguar E-type Series I 4.2-litre roadster was built in left-hand drive with a manual gearbox and finished in Willow Green with black leather seating and a black hood. It was finished on 11th January 1967 and shortly afterwards despatched to Jaguar Cars, New York and onwards to its first proud owner, a William H Wilson.
We believe it returned to the UK around 2016 and was subsequently purchased by our vendor in need of a program of works. A full restoration commenced a little later and the work was extensive. Respected Martin Robey Engineering Ltd provided a compete new bodyshell for the car, with a new bulkhead, new doors, new bonnet, new boot lid all fitted. New engine side-frames and reinforced inner sills were also fitted as a part of the build process. The car was converted to right-hand drive, the engine rebuilt, the suspension and brakes were also fully rebuilt and finally the car was treated to a new interior and professionally finished in Gloss Black.
No expense appears to have been spared during this comprehensive restoration, one bill alone from Martin Robey Engineering Ltd dated 3rd January 2017 totalled £47,321 and our vendor believes that his total investment amounted to well over £100,000. When it was finally complete, the Jaguar was first UK-registered on 1st March 2020. All relevant invoices and documentation will be available to inspect at our Documents Desk during our sale.
