Jaguar E-Type Series 2 ‘Semi lightweight homage’
- Bespoke one-off build, a 3-year project finished to an incredible standard
- 4. 2 litre rebuilt engine with triple Weber carburettors
- The attention to detail really is staggering
A culmination of a lifetimes experience and three years of painstaking attention to detail has resulted in what can be described as a true breathtaking one off example of the Series II E-Type, what can be referred to as loosely an homage to the Semi lightweight E-Type of the 60’s.
The result is part Eagle, Part Semi lightweight or low drag with widened arches. Boasting a race feel after chrome bumpers removed, full roll cage installed and aluminium door cards - leans towards track but could equally be softened with some carpeting and sound deadening to fast road.
The original donor car was supplied to New York State in 1969 detailed in the British Heritage certificate and repatriated in 2015 back to the UK from the Beverley Hills Car club as found in a copy of the certificate of title alongside much of the original paperwork, which is still found in the history file.
The project was undertaken by a skilled retired panel beater, he purchased the car prior to the pandemic and that quiet summer enabled him to take on and complete the project. Every panel was perfected allowing the glass like paint job.
The original, 4. 2 litre engine having been rebuilt is largely standard but for triple Weber carburettors, alloy finned radiator, a one-off alloy header tank and braided hoses much supplied by RS Panels including bespoke LWE mud shields and stone guards.
The width of the wheels are 7” Magnesium peg to the front 8” to the rear and hide larger 11 ¼ front discs so this stops as well as it goes and just encase coupled to the roll cage the car boasts Tillet Carbon GRP seats and TRS four-point harness.
Supplied with a good history file with countless invoices from the build, coupled with its original book pack, Heritage certificate and UK V5 registration certificate. This example is light, fast and beautiful. Some would say its too good to track. But everyone wouldn't hesitate in her showing off at Goodwood.
