Early aluminum ribbed radiator with auxiliary fan and a Marston badge
About a year ago, a collector from Northern California purchased an early 1962 Jaguar XKE roadster and sent it to us to restore it for him. The color combo he chose to go with is Opalescent Silver Grey with a Black interior and top. The boot and the interior are made special, done in all Black to keep it continuous instead of the typical Beige boot/Tan header with Grey top bows, which turned out stunning.
He chose a few performance options to make it more fun to drive, and he is considering showing it a few times to experience participating in shows and all the fun that comes with that. Updates on its progress will be in the next newsletter.
