Iconic 1965 Jaguar E-Type Convertible in for post-storage refresh and electrical
Our customer's dad purchased this E-Type Series I Roadster new in 1965 and took delivery in England. He and his wife then toured the countryside in the car together, prior to having it shipped back to the US.
The car was handed down to his daughter, who had us get it back on its feet again after a long, extended nap in her garage. We replaced the wiring harness from bumper to bumper, overhauled the carburetors, rebuilt the tachometer and added a brand-new interior with fresh upholstery, door cards and the whole works.
