Although early history is unknown, this V12 Roadster was manufactured on March 31, 1972 and delivered to New York. Having remained in the Northeast from new, it was acquired by a collector in 1996 who immediately commissioned a no expense spared restoration. A correct spec V12 was fitted and over $100,000 was spent to bring this V12 E-Type into concours condition. After 19 years, this collector sold the E-Type to another collector and long-time friend and client of Autosport Designs in Virginia.
While cosmetically in excellent condition throughout, the E-type went through a complete restoration and refreshening in excess of $150,000.

Further enhancements include mild porting of heads and custom valve job, 10:1 compression JE pistons, Jenvey EFI system, Jaguar factory fuel injection fast road cams, Stainless sport exhaust system, custom headers, Fosseway drilled front brakes and a HP radiator.

The engine was Dyno tested at 462bhp at 4,850 rpm and 523 ft. lbs. of torque with a 6,200 rpm redline.
Taken on trade only a few years ago by Autosport Designs, this Jag was sold to another long time client and friend of ours.
