History
The last owner of the E type, Julien B. of Burlington, Canada, had the E-Type for over 40 years and due to age the E-Type had to be sold. With age it is not difficult to get in the E-Type, but it does get tough to get out!
Julien still owns a Jaguar MK V DHC, Jaguar XK 140, E-Type Series III Roadster, 2002 Jaguar XJR and a 2004 Jaguar XK8. The whole collection, including the E-Type, was extensively used for Jaguar club meetings and Concourses. Julien and his wife Patricia cherished the Jaguars, Patricia joined him on the many trips and outings.
In the Nineties, the bodywork of the E-Type was partially restored, the floors and the sills were replaced. The E-Type was fully repainted in its original color Old English White. Also, a full synchromesh E-Type Series I 4.2 transmission was fitted.
The engine was rebuilt by Ian Johnson of Just Jags in Toronto, the brakes and suspension were rebuilt by John Keen of Cheshire Jaguar, also in Toronto. Bodywork was done by Kendrick British Car Restorations.
The E-Type still retains its original engine, which is running well and has an excellent oil pressure. The Jaguar presents itself as a strong driver and has an amazing, original interior. Seen the age of this Series 1 E-Type ( 60 years!! ), original interiors are hardly seen anymore and it gives this E-Type a unique appearance.
The odometer shows 08.617 miles, we assume at the moment the total, original mileage is 108.617. That is less than 2.000 miles a year.
