Description
This 1968 Jaguar E-Type Series 2 OTS arrived in the UK in 1997 having started life in Illinois USA. Upon the car's arrival in the UK it was left in a state of needing restoration where it remained for more than 20 years until the owner passed away. In 2019 the car was sold from the deceased estate to the current custodian who set about a total rebuild of the car including conversion to right hand drive. The restoration was very thorough indeed including new panels where needed along with an engine rebuild, rewire, new braking system, interior retrim, new hood and fresh paint. The engine rebuild included converting to triple Webers which have been tuned to perfection and the car pulls exceptionally well making for an exciting ride!
The history file includes a heritage certificate and the car remains in its original colour of British Racing Green. There is a stack of invoices relating to the restoration along with various mechanical data sheets.
The end result of the restoration is what you see in the photographs which is a car that has had everything done and is ready for its new custodian to enjoy the summer weather.
