1966 Jaguar XKE
1966 Jaguar XKE

Description

  This matching-numbers 1966 Jaguar XKE Series I E-Type roadster is

  powered by a rebuilt 4.2-liter inline-6 engine paired with the

  4-speed manual transmission original to the car. Triple SU

  carburetors breathe through foam-capped velocity stacks rather than

  the factory air cleaner, while stainless headers and side-exit

  pipes have replaced the original exhaust. The negative ground

  electrical system features an alternator rather than the generator

  equipped on earlier cars, and a Crane Cams electronic ignition has

  also been fitted. Power-assisted disc brakes are inboard at the

  rear and the car received a new booster, lines and stainless-lined

  caliper pistons from White Post Restoration. A cosmetic and

  mechanical refurbishment performed over the last 8 years has

  included new paint, replica Dunlop Racing wheels, and a fresh

  interior with new leather and rebuilt gauges. The car was restored

  in 2018 and finished in black. This Classic Series 1 still has its

  remaining chrome trim, including on the twin bullet sideview

  mirrors. The car received a new windshield, and the black canvas

  folding top fits. A boot for top-down storage is also provided

  alongside a tonneau cover. The dash houses Series 1 toggle switches

  and chrome hardware. It features a wood-rimmed aluminum steering

  wheel, and a wooden shift knob has been fitted. Black-ringed

  factory gauges were rebuilt by Nisonger Instruments. The heater box

  has been removed due to disuse, as has the radio console. It

  features black and silver under the hood, including most fasteners

  and ancillary items. Just months ago, a complete restoration was

  done to the interior and trunk, including a "period-correct" full

  leather interior crafted by Ed "The Stitch Doctor" of Hi Class

  Customs. The included Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate lists

  original chassis #1E12155, body #4E3588, engine #7E7084-9 and

  manual gearbox #EJ6266. ** PREVIEW
