Description
Offered for sale is a stunning, very original, rust free, and correct California 1969 Jaguar E-Type 4.2L roadster. Finished in its factory red over black leather, the car has spent its life as an essentially one owner California roadster. Title was transferred once in the early 80’s when the owner decided to give his car to his Jaguar and British sports car enthusiast brother, a renowned architect in the Los Angeles area. As the pictures illustrate and the ad will describe, there are very few if any flaws at all to point out on this original, unmolested, and impeccable E-type roadster.

The interior is perfect. The correct leather seats do not have a mark on them. The carpets are new and flawless. The dash is perfect. The door panels and all the interior chrome is impeccable. Like I said, this is a stunning car.
