Beschreibung
-Regency Red with Biscuit, tan carpets with Black overmats, Black convertible top, 5.3 Liter V12 engine, 4-speed gearbox, 40,000 Original miles, Superb condition, Long term collector ownership, Excellent provenance.
Although early history is unknown, this V12 Roadster has been cared for and cherished from new. Many late Series 3 E-Types were produced with the automatic transmission, but this example was factory built with the 4-speed manual gearbox as desired by many E-Type enthusiasts.
This V12 Roadster was purchased by its most recent owner many years ago and from, well-known and respected Jaguar enthusiast dealer, Tom Rossiter - The Stable, Mendham, New Jersey. As per the previous owner, "actually I have known Tom since 1978, when I bought some spats to go on my XK120 I was restoring at the time." The Stable have been well-known and respected for their superb and well-documented and serviced automobile inventory since first opening their doors in 1973.
Further ownership history as stated by its previous owner, "I had Don Moore in Connecticut put up-graded brakes (Wildwood on front and XJS on rear) on the 74 for me. Don also removed and redid the heads, upper gaskets, and carbs. She runs great!"
Recently traded to Autosport Designs, Inc. toward a 1967 Series 1 E-type Roadster for all the right reasons, another quote "having had a black over biscuit 64 in my misspent youth, I am drawn to this car" and so a fair trade was made, the Series 1 found a new Jaguar enthusiast collector home and this V12 Roadster has become part of the Autosport Designs automotive orphanage and is now seeking a new home.
As one of the last of the breed, this Series 3 E-Type presents in excellent condition in all areas, cosmetically, mechanically and structurally and is ready for immediate use and enjoyment.
