Comentarios del vendedor sobre 1962' Jaguar E-Type
Close to our hometown, our attention was drawn to this original series 1 coupé. Upon inquiry, it turned out that the car had been in Zeeland since 1993 and had been part of a private collection since 2011. The first owner bought the car from a Belgian dealer and a very extensive restoration report shows that he took things serious. Everything is described in detail and there are also numerous photos present of this works. The project was perfect; a beautiful 1962 alu-dash E-Type with a very solid and straight body and complete matching numbers. These days we jump for joy when we come across such a perfect project! Paintwork, upholstery and mechanics, everything was carried out on Zeeland territory.
After enjoying the car for many years, it was "granted" to a fellow islander who, after a full check-up, added it to his collection. The car was only used occasionally and due to the expansion of his collection with another (special) E-Type, we can now offer it for sale.
Given the time that has passed since the previous restoration, the car could currently use some improvement, but is certainly also very usable in it's current condition because it drives perfectly. The engine was overhauled at the time and has lost very little of its power since then. The original Moss gearbox also works perfectly. The paintwork now shows some traces of age, but still shows fine with a nice strong shine. The dark green color is also the color it received from the factory. This does not apply to the interior because that was originally black but was changed to beige during the restoration. At the time, a number of materials were also chosen that were not original. Of course we are happy to bring this back to the original specifications.
However, all this does not detract from the quality of this coupé. With this car we offer you a perfect opportunity to enter the world of the Jaguar E-Type at a very competetive price. This year the e-type celebrates its 60th birthday and next year that will also apply to this example. Are you celebrating this party with us in your own E-Type? We will deliver it including 2 full binders with documentation and a Heritage certificate.
