1965 Jaguar XKE Roadster

Description

UPDATE: We are sourcing a complete XKE 4.2L drivetrain with manual box to be included with this roadster.

1965 Jaguar XKE. This is an exceptionally straight, rust free high mountain car. This Jag was with the same owner since the mid 80s. Unfortunately,vintage sports cars weren't nearly as appreciatedduring this period and a Ford V8/auto box was fitted. The conversion looks reasonably well done and from what I can tell, the front sub frame was not overly mangled. The top square bar was clearanced a bit to accommodate the exhaust manifold.

With what early roadsters are commanding, this is a ideal candidate to set straight and drive, the cosmetics show very well and I honestly think it could be a driver (with the wrong motor)over weekend worth of work. I have a line on a 4.2 motor and box, I will do all that I can to assist the buyer source these parts should they want to return the car to factory configuration.

A local viewing and inspection is welcome and encouraged with appointment. We are happy to help buyers worldwide with shipping and freight logistics.
