1973 JAGUAR XKE 2+2 COUPE

This 1973 Jaguar E-Type coupe is a meticulously maintained example that shows in very good condition mechanically and cosmetically. The 5.3-liter V12 engine is clean and very nicely detailed with mostly correct finishes decals and hardware. Receipts totaling in excess of $30000 within the last four years demonstrate the length the past owner took to ensure it is a strong-running and well-sorted car. An engine-out service included an external reseal valve adjustment rebuilt carburetors new water pump machined and resealed exhaust manifolds new thermostats all new hoses belts and rebuilt starter and alternator. At the same time the front suspension was rebuilt the steering rack replaced power steering pump rebuilt radiator replaced and new hardware and mountings fitted upon reassembly. Receipts also show fresh brake calipers brake master cylinder and wheel bearings as well as new front shocks and other details. The Signal Red exterior is complemented with Biscuit Tan upholstery in factory-correct materials. The dash and gauges are original and in very good condition including the original Kienzle clock. A wood-rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel has been added and the original radio is still in place in the console. This car is equipped with all three of the available factory options that Jaguar offered 1973: chrome wire wheels air conditioning and an automatic transmission. With great-quality cosmetics and extensive service history this E-Type 2+2 is an excellent example to enjoy and drive. The combination of the silky smooth V12 automatic transmission and power steering make it a fantastic grand touring car with ample room for luggage and even an occasional extra passenger. It is a well-sorted cosmetically attractive example.
