If you are looking for a Concours level ‘Driver’ this may be the one for you! During my 7+ years of stewardship I’ve had the pleasure of adding 15,000 miles to the odometer … mostly to classic car related events up to 500 miles away from my Raleigh, NC home base. After a good detailing the cat usually places at or near the top, and it continues to do so to this day. A total of 18,900 miles have been driven since the complete (documented with receipts) Concours level restoration was performed by Muncie Motors, Indiana in 1998 during which the color was changed from its carmin red to Old English white.
As the Concours Chairman of the Carolina Jaguar Club for the last 3 years and a current JCNA judge, I’m well versed on what it takes to maintain an E Type in top condition, and have made a few common sense driving upgrades along the way including a Pertronix ignition and stainless steel exhaust system. This car purrs like a kitten and drives / operates 'as new'.
Major Awards:
This coveted cat has averaged a JCNA score of 9.997 (Driven Class) over the last 7 years. In 2010 the judges honored it with the ‘Palmetto Award’ (2nd place) at the Hilton Head Invitational Concours d’Elegance; in 2011 it won ‘Best in Show’ at the Jaguar Club of North America XKExperience National event in Richmond, VA- renowned Jaguar test driver ‘Norman Dewis’ was the featured guest and personally handed out the awards...he was also kind enough to sign the inside of the bonnet and the owner’s manual! That same year it earned 1st place in the JCNA South East Region – (one needs three JCNA sanctioned event scores in the region to qualify). In 2013 it was the featured E-Type for the Jaguar USA ‘Drive Alive’ event for the launch of the Jaguar F-Type- shipped to Charlotte for the occasion; and in 2016 it was invited to grace the show field with some of the finest classic car examples at the Pinehurst Concours d’Elegance! It just doesn’t get any better than this if you are inflicted with the 'Classic car bug'! A complete list of awards and scores is available in to potential buyers- all trophies and a beautiful British flag fabric car cover is included in the sale.
Reason for selling……it’s time for an E-Type coupe.
