1967 Jaguar E Type Fhc Coupe on 2040-cars

 1967 Jaguar E Type FHC 2 seat coupe. Opalecent silver grey with red leather interior. Grey headliner. Restored in 1997-2000. 8000 miles since. Engine rebuilt with new pistons, bearings, oil and water pumps, valves, guides, and springs, chains and guides and tensioner, surfaced flywheel and new diaphram clutch. Close ratio 4 speed gearbox received new bearings, synchro rings, and layshaft. Radiator got a heavy duty core replacement (Texas). Carbs were redone, fuel tank boiled out and sealed. Body shell needed one sill set (right) and the drop in pan. Trunk floor was replaced also. Original bonnet is lovely and clean in the nose area. Complete shell was repainted in correct opalecent silver grey. I changed the interior from black to red. The kit was provided by BAS. Complete brake system rebuild included new MC, rebuilt booster, Wildwood calipers on the front and steel flex hoses. The dunlop calipers are included. The original wheels just would not run straight or balance well so I replaced them with the triple laced MWS Dunlop reproductions which are much stronger and run true. Tires are Yokahama Avid tourings. I then drove the car for 8K miles over 11 years. Last year I did a refresh to upgrade the cars condition. Items replaced include: Coolcat fan, rear shocks, fuel pump, motor mounts, 8 vane water pump, front discs, expansion tank, all cooling hoses, all clamps for the hoses, polyurethane suspension bushings, engine compartment wiring harness, and the alternator wiring harness. Rebuilt items include: brake MC, booster (again), speedometer, water temp gauge, carbs (diaphrams), new clutch disc and throw out bearing ( not really needed but I had the unit out), replated all front suspension pieces and any part in the engine compartment that was originaly plated. This ran to about 350 items.
I run the car without the front bumpers because I like the look. They are included with the over-riders and the motif bar. The radio is a 3-band Blaupunkit (?) with separate power amp. Handbook is included. I have all the delivery documents that came with the car including the warranty card signed by the owner of Overseas Motors in Ft. Worth on February 17, 1967, the warranty service voucher book with the dealer stamps, the drivers handbook, lubrication chart, dealer list, and some others. Metalfacture jack, bag, and a very worn Thor hammer. The only item I don't have is the tool kit. I think the previous owner kept it even though I grilled him about it, but what can you do?
The car runs great, engine is seamless, doesn't smoke, stays at 80 - 85 C, stops straight and well (for an E Type). It does drip a little oil - mostly from the engine and gearbox drain plugs when sitting.
