The Series 1.5 XKE featured early-style taillights mounted above the rear bumper as well as exposed headlights that were similar to the Series 2 models. This example is finished in Pale Primrose Yellow, and exterior features include a louvered hood, a black soft top, and dual central exhaust outlets. The windshield washer reservoir and pump were reportedly replaced during current ownership, and the windshield wiper motor has also been rebuilt. The seller describes evidence of prior bodywork around the nose of the vehicle and states that the fitment of the body panels has been adjusted and blemishes were repaired. A chip and scratches are noted in the windshield, and the wipers are said to only operate in the highest speed setting.
Chrome 15” wire wheels feature knock-off hubs and are mounted with red-stripe tires. The car rides on independent suspension, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rears. The wheel bearings were reportedly re-packed in 2015, while more recent service has included replacement of the brake master cylinder along with the rear brake calipers and pads in May 2021.
The cabin features bucket seats trimmed in black vinyl with a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpets protected by rubber Jaguar-branded floor mats. LED bulbs have been added to the dash, and amenities include a central arm rest, a locking glovebox, rocker switches for vehicle functions, and an analog clock that was reportedly rebuilt and converted to use a AAA-size battery in 2017. The seller notes that the radio is not hooked up and reports a tear in the passenger seat.
A wood-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel frames Smiths instrumentation that includes a 160-mph speedometer and a 6k-rpm tachometer that was rebuilt in 2015. A quartet of auxiliary gauges in the center console include displays for amperage, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows just over 85k miles, around 2,400 of which have been added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 4.2-liter inline-six features dual Zenith-Stromberg carburetors that were reportedly overhauled in 2015. Additional work at that time is said to have included flushing the fuel tank and replacing the fuel sending unit and the clutch release cylinder. A Lucas fuel pump was installed in 2017, the starter and alternator were rebuilt in 2018 and Series I-spec camshaft covers were installed that same year, and the cooling system was overhauled in 2020 with an aluminum radiator, rebuilt fan motors, and a replacement thermostat and temperature sensor. Maintenance since July 2021 has included an oil change as well as replacing the fuel filter, ignition wires, and spark plugs. Results from a compression test can be seen in the gallery.
