If you have any questions feel free to email: teishataandres@ukfun.com .
This a completely restored vehicle, 1966 Jaguar series one 4.2 litre XKE Roadster, date of manufacture Dec. 6th,
1965
owned for 27 years, original mileage is 62,487, 1,020 miles on rebuilt engine,(stock, 9 to 1 compression). all
numbers match on this XKE, Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate # 44876.
Always garaged, rust was never a concern with this Jaguar. Time to sell due to age and health.
I wanted to cast a race look of the famous "D" type Jaguar race car on this XKE, rather than a stock appearance,
while keeping the engine stock. Here is what was done,
Bumpers were removed, the originals have been re chromed and are included in this sale,
Side Stainless steel exhaust and SS header replaced the stock rear exhaust, the stock is included in sale,
Front directional lights are now under the glass of the head light like the "D" type,
Wire wheels have been replaced with the"D" type Dunlap race wheels, with tri bar knock offs (5), a cost of $3,500.
Removal of the front grille motif bar, also included in sale.
Removal of the heater box, since I only drove this XKE in warm weather, radio and radio console ( it is newly
upholstered), also have been merely removed, several period radios are included in sale.
Here are a few of the things that have been restored or replace with new parts,
all brake calipers have been S.S. lined, provided by White Post Restoration,
all interior in replaced by original quality provided by GW Bartlett Co.,
tires are Michelin P 215/60R15,
new wind shield glass,
paint is Dupont Chroma System G9900S, Super Jet Black,
gauges rebuilt by Nisonger Instruments
There are many boxes of parts, California car cover, work shop and drivers manuals, that are included, oil and
filter service was just done last month. * There is a fine crack 1" in the paint about the wheel well on the
drivers rear side, and another 1/2 fine crack on the bonnet near the firewall.
The changes made in the body appearance to give this XKE a "D" type race look was undertaken, so that it could be
put back to the original look with very little effort and with no body modifications needed. If you have any
questions, just email me. Thanks Gentlemen, for viewing my XKE.

Are you the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R-S?
Fri, 23 Aug 2013It's no secret that Jaguar is working on a fixed-roof version of the F-Type roadster, but now it looks like it's also developing a high-performance model for said coupe. Captured sharpening its claws at the Nürburgring, this F-Type Coupe prototype could very well be an R-S or even a more track-ready R-S GT variant.
Our biggest clue suggesting the latter are its massive brake rotors with bright-yellow calipers - similar pieces are also found on the recently introduced XKR-S GT. This would make sense, since a report in May said that Jaguar is looking to create a full line of R-S GT models in a similar fashion as the Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series. Missing from this prototype, though, are the telltale aero add-ons we seen on the XKR-S GT - go-faster bits like the latter's front fascia winglets and rear wing, though this model is obviously still being developed. Regardless of what this new grippier, quicker kitty is called, we say "Yes, please."
Jaguar recalling XK Convertible and XF 2.0T sedan for unrelated issues
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Jaguar has announced that it will be recalling 1,989 XK Convertibles produced between October 1, 2010 and August 1, 2013. Model years ranging from 2011 to 2014 are part of the recall.
The issue has to do with one of the switches the switch that controls the opening and closing of the convertible top. The switch also has to do with the operation of the power windows. According to the Feds, the switch doesn't move down to close the power windows, meaning that the window could accidentally close on the finger or arm of an inattentive person.
In related news, Jaguar is also recalling 940 2013 XF sedans powered by the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine for a hose that can detach underhood, which could cause the engine to stall or could leave the driver without power steering or brakes.
Jaguar F-Type US order guide loose online
Fri, 08 Feb 2013
An alleged US order guide for the 2014 Jaguar F-Type has made its way online courtesy of the good people at F-TypeClub.com, documenting everything from wheel color options to special equipment packages. From the looks of things, buyers will be able to choose from a total of eight wheel designs in sizes ranging from 18 inches on the base model all the way up to 20 inches. While most of those rollers are available in either silver or black finishes, the 20-inch blade-style wheels are not only forged, but come with carbon-fiber trim. Fancy.
Depending on trim, F-Type buyers will get to choose between two types of seat, including a set of performance-style 14-way power adjustable thrones, complete with seat belts in black, red or tan. Other fun tricks include available power folding side view mirrors and a 770-watt, 14-speaker Meridian sound system.
