A Classic Showcase Restoration
This 1964 E-Type retains its rare “J/64” stamped tag next to the data plate, an original California DMV designation from 1964 found only on cars first registered in the state during that era. This seldom-seen detail adds an extra layer of provenance and authenticity. Finished in its rare factory original color combination of Opalescent Silver Grey and Red, as documented by its Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate, the Coupe has undergone a comprehensive, show-level restoration to our highest standards and is now being offered for sale as one of the finest newly restored Series I E-Types available today, both cosmetically and mechanically.
The restoration process was thorough, with every component being restored and/or replaced with attention to detail. The body was completely disassembled, metal-finished, and leaded where necessary. All chrome and body components were fitted before being primed, sealed, and finished in base and clear coats, then color-sanded and buffed to a beautiful finish. On the mechanical side, the Coupe's engine, gearbox, and driveline were rebuilt, and all other systems including the clutch, brakes, cooling, electrical, and hydraulics were fully restored to a high show level. All rubber components, grommets, bushings, and seals were also replaced, and NOS parts were used wherever possible. The wiring harness was replaced, and fasteners were either re-plated or replaced with proper hardware.
Inside, the Coupe’s original interior was painstakingly restored by our Master Trimmer using the correct materials, patterns, and textures, including all new leather, carpets, and panels. The dash instruments and switches were professionally restored, and the steering wheel, brightwork, and finishing details reflect the same level of care taken throughout the entire restoration.
This exceptional E-Type is now fully restored and ready for sale. It is equally suited for the Concours field, a private collection, or as a valuable investment opportunity. Included with the car is an MP4 pictorial video documenting the restoration, offering collectors and enthusiasts an inside look at the craftsmanship invested into this Blue Chip Jaguar - contact us today for pricing and information!
