Is this an understatement OR WHAT!!!



1967 JAGUAR E TYPE XKE SERIES 1.5 2 + 2    4.2 FIXED HEAD COUPE
PLEASE BE AWARE
THIS CAR IS A NON RUNNER
AND REQUIRES

COMPLETE RESTORATION

NO S*** SHERLOCK!!!

[derekwarner]

Those wire wheel rims appear too wide for original ...so this alone [non stand fitment] may lower the value of the ...eh .......Vehicle or Heap 

[dreadnought72]

It'll buff out.

[Baldrick]

I think that the duck egg green  is one of the best colours for this model.

[raflaunches]

Makes my MG restoration a walk in the park by comparison!

[Lifeboat 70-001]

I would like to see auto glass put a new windscreen in that lol.

I think it was a HOT car @ one time but no surprise they are known for that, but this one has been taken a bit too far, Mick B. (irishcarguy)

[Plastic - RIP]

Rear bumper lookes good but the non-standard chrome trim down the side looks silly. The bonnet looks useable on the right of the pic.You can rebuild one of these easily because all the parts are available - give it a new tub and get bolting.

"...would be suitable for a drop-head conversion!"

but the non-standard chrome trim down the side looks silly.

Its an import I believe from the USA, and they used to stick chrome everywhere.....the more the better........


always cracked me up though that although they love chrome so much they insisted on getting rid of it on the bumpers of MG's, Jenson Healeys in favour of "rubber bumpers", and even wanted the Austin Healey 3000's to put them on............sadly ending their export for safety reasons......sacrilege......….


and then you nly have to look at the c**p that they design on the other side of the pond.

[jaymac]

in the 50's the flashy bumpers were  Zinc used to replate a lot from their airbase

[TheLongBuild]

Not bad for £12,7500 !! front wings look ok if you look at all the pics on fleebay

[johnv]

HI it's John V i think it's a good buy .Be worth a mint when done .A few years ago would be a easy to do nice little job
