For Sale at Auction: 1966 Jaguar XKE in New Orleans, Louisiana for sale in New Orleans, LA
Vehicle Description This matching-numbers 1966 Jaguar XKE Series I E-Type roadster is powered by a recently rebuilt 4.
2-liter inline-6 engine paired with the 4-speed manual transmission original to the car.
Power-assisted disc brakes are inboard at the rear and received a new booster, lines and stainless-lined caliper pistons from White Post Restoration.
Manufactured in December 1965, it was purchased by the seller in 2020 from its previous owner in 1990.
A cosmetic and mechanical refurbishment performed over the last 8 years has included new paint, replica Dunlop Racing wheels, and a fresh interior with new leather and rebuilt gauges.
The car was restored in 2018 and it was finished in black.
The Jaguar still has its remaining chrome trim that looks bright and clean, including on the twin bullet sideview mirrors.
The car received a new windshield and the black canvas folding top fits tightly, exhibiting a clear rear window and no visible damage.
A boot for top-down storage is also provided alongside a tonneau cover.
New high-quality carpets and leather upholstery were sourced from G.
W.
Bartlett Co.
in their original black according to the Heritage Certificate.
No splits are present on the top of the dash, which houses Series 1 toggle switches and chrome hardware.
The wood-rimmed aluminum steering wheel is in good condition and a wooden shift knob has been fitted.
Black-ringed factory gauges were rebuilt by Nisonger Instruments.
The heater box has been removed due to disuse as has the radio console.
Triple SU carburetors breathe through foam-capped velocity stacks rather than the factory air cleaner, while stainless headers and side-exit pipes have replaced the original exhaust.
The negative ground electrical system features an alternator rather than the generator equipped on earlier cars, and a Crane Cams electronic ignition has also been fitted.
Black and silver paint looks clean under the hood, as do most fasteners and ancillary items.
The included Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate lists original chassis #1E12155, body #4E3588, engine #7E7084-9 and manual gearbox #EJ6266.
