Claremont, California, United States
1963 JAGUAR E-TYPE XKE 3.8 LITER SERIES ONE FIXED HEAD COUPE
KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS offers for sale a very decent Jaguar E-type for restoration. This car has lived most or all of its life in the Western part of the United States. It appears to have left the factory in the very desirable color scheme of Golden Sand or Bronze with a beige or light tan interior color - very attractive and elegant for an early coupe. The car is a great restoration project having a very solid monocoque bodyshell with only minimal rust. The main floors are very solid and rustfree and with the original sheetmetal, as seen by the photos. There is some rust-through on the trunk floor underneath, just under the spare tire supports (photo), and very little around the rear wheel well edge where it ties in to the trunk. The rockers appears very solid, with only some bubbling starting on the lower RH rear (photo). There is some localized rust-through on the RH wheel arch. The battery area needs a minor repair. The rest of the monocoque looks excellent, solid, and original with no welding ever been carried out on it. There appears to be a some body repair in the past, just ahead of the LH door. Overall, this bodyshell should require only minimal work in repairs before it is sent to the bodyshop. The car is currently fitted with a correct 3.8 E-type transmission mated to a later 4.2 liter engine (#7E5335-8). The car is missing some parts that are available new or used. The car was partially disassembled in the past and those parts were carefully boxed. There are several boxes of lots of components that are original to the car. Everything I have for the car is pictured and now carefully boxed up to include with the car. Please look at those photos in detail, as everything will be included with the sale of the car. Large items that are missing are the complete bonnet assembly with supporting subframe, triple carburetor setup with manifold and air cleaner, radiator, front and rear windshield with chrome trim, rear taillights and bumpers, RH sheetmetal door skin (the rest of the door is there), radio console, and maybe some small engine bay and chrome trim items. Please look at the photos in detail to see what is included. The car still retains it's original data plate and is sold with a clear and current CA title. Overall, this car presents a good opportunity to secure a hugely desirable Jaguar E-type 3.8 Liter Fixed Head Coupe, for sensible entry-level money. Over time, one can source the missing items for the restoration. The final result will prove to be a very rewarding and worthwhile endeavor, as these cars continue to escalate in price and become great investments. This car can be viewed in Southern California. Please note that I reserve the right to end this offering at any time, as it is also being advertised elsewhere. $21,500. KURT TANNER RESTORATIONS. 909-920-9221, work. 909-241-1051, cell. |

2014 Jaguar XJR
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Jaguar In Its Purest Form
Jaguar has spent a lot of time, money and engineering effort refocusing itself for the modern world. In 2006, the current XK replaced the former XK8 and introduced a new aluminum-intensive chassis architecture to Jaguar's portfolio, and two years later, the XF whipped up a similar overhaul to its classical styling department.
The next major revision came in 2009, with the introduction of the achingly attractive and completely new XJ sedan, and this step struck us as the biggest improvement yet; not only was Jaguar's flagship built atop a cutting-edge platform, it boasted a newfound sense of style that pointed toward the future while still echoing the brand's storied past. This trend has continued most recently with the two-door F-Type that we've already grown quite fond of.
Jaguar XE teased in new video, will debut September 8
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Outside of a major auto show, this might be one of the best times of the year for new car debuts, and we couldn't be more excited. Just this week, the low-slung face of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata showed itself to the world, and Land Rover debuted its new Discovery Sport. Plus, there's a double-whammy of launches on the imminent horizon with the unveilings of the Jaguar XE on September 8 and the Mercedes-AMG GT on September 9.
Jag is teasing the launch of its latest midsize luxury sedan with a few glimpses on video. It's strangely secretive, given the fact that Jaguar showed the XE's face completely un-camouflaged a few weeks ago. Regardless, it's quite a looker up front with a sleeker take on the shape of the larger XF.
Because of the way Jaguar is slowly leaking details about the XE, there are a few other things we already know about this new cat, too. It rides on a monocoque chassis made from over 75 percent aluminum, and the automaker is promising 75 miles per gallon fuel economy on the more lenient European cycle for at least one engine in the lineup.
New Jaguar crossover to be called 'XQ'?
Wed, 08 May 2013As part of its upcoming portfolio expansion, Jaguar will be adding two key models to its lineup in the next few years. The first is a small, 3 Series-fighting sedan tentatively called XS, and the other is said to be a new crossover, which may be dubbed XQ, as Edmunds reports. Jaguar filed a trademark application for the name "XQ" with the United States Patent and Trademark Office earlier this year, according to the report.
Jaguar executives have long said that the company is investigating new, higher-volume segments for the brand to compete in, and this certainly isn't the first time we've heard rumors of a CUV with a pouncing cat badge. Edmunds opines that since the Land Rover brand will no doubt continue to tackle the more traditional SUV segments, the Jaguar brand could easily house an offering in the luxury crossover market.
As for how a Jaguar CUV could come to fruition, Edmunds offers two suggestions. The first would be to build a vehicle on the smaller platform that will underpin the XS, as it will accommodate both rear- and all-wheel-drive applications and will be used for a number of differently sized vehicles. The second, more logical suggestion, is that the Jag CUV will ride on a version of the all-aluminum D7u platform used in the Land Rover Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.
