1969 Jaguar Xke Roadster, Project, Barn Find. on 2040-cars
Newfane, New York, United States
|
I have a 1969 Jaguar XKE Roadster. The car has been in dry storage for 25 years and not driven. The engine is a 3.8 liter from an earlier XKE. Numbers are RA3203-9 on the head and block. The engine runs strong with 30-40 psi oil pressure. I drove the car and shifted through all gears with no problems. The brakes are not in working order and will need a going over. I'm currently using an auxiliary gas can and fuel pump. The gas tank will need cleaning and the fuel pump is not working. The battery and auxiliary fuel equipment is not included. All the lights and interior gauges seem to be in working order. The interior and leather seats are in very good condition. The convertible top and boot cover are like new. Windows roll up and down and have no cracks.The doors close nice and tight.The body has signs of body work on lower doors. The front bonnet has no signs of any body work. The under carriage and floor pans look fair, but will need a good cleaning.The paint is checking in some areas. I do not have the spare tire, jack or tool kit. I have no history of previous ownership. This car is a restoration project and sold as-is. So please ask questions before bidding. I have a clear NYS registration of ownership.

Jay Leno's Garage features funnyman's 1963 Jaguar E-Type
Thu, 25 Apr 2013Jay Leno looks inward on this episode of his eponymous garage, checking out a 1963 Jaguar XKE that he bought earlier this year. It is an example of his favorite kind of car, that being original and unrestored. He bought the E-Type from its first owner, a woman who purchased it new, held on to it for 50 years and took excellent care of it. Having never been in an accident, Leno says even the paint is 85- to 90-percent original.
In the video, the XKE sits in front of two heavily modded XK120s and another '63 XKE, but Leno said all he's done - and all he plans to do - is clean it up and put on a modern set of wire wheels for safety.
He's not on any junket and there are no guests, it's just a guy talking about an object dear to his heart. If you need a refresher on the excellent genes of the new F-Type, check out the video below.
2013 Jaguar XFR-S
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Why Ask Questions When You Already Know The Answer?
"Is it fast?"
We get that question a lot. Several times a month, in fact, and it comes from every corner of our lives - friends, family, complete strangers and even colleagues from time to time. And it's an understandable query. After all, speed, either in a straight line or around a twisty bit of tarmac, is a universally accepted line of demarcation between the typical family sedan and something much more fun and therefore desirable.
Jaguar C-X17 gets liquid metal finish for Dubai show [w/poll]
Sat, 09 Nov 2013We thought the C-X17 concept looked pretty good when Jaguar unveiled it in Frankfurt a couple of months ago. But that shade of blue, while nice enough, made it look like it shared more than a similar name with the Mazda CX-7. No, what a Jaguar needs is a more luxurious paint job than electric blue. And that's just what the British automaker has given its crossover concept in time for the Dubai Motor Show this week.
What we have here is the same C-X17, but repainted in what Jaguar calls "a lustrous Liquid Aluminum liquid metal finish," and we have but to agree. What do you think? Scope it out in the fresh batch of high-res images above and cast your vote in the poll below.
