1967 jaguar e-type - fort worth, txstreetside classicsfort worth, tx 76137ph: 8558772707web: www. This 1969 jaguar xke ots (that's open two-seater to us yanks) is often called a series 1. 5 model, incorporating dozens of performance and reliability improvements over the series i, and unquestionably more handsome than the later cars, making it one of the most desirable e-types of all. Never a rusty car, it has obviously spent its life in a warm climate, and that's especially critical on jaguars, which can rust in the most demonic ways possible. Note the small grille opening, slender bumpers, and taillights still perched above the rear bumpers, all indicative of the series 1. 5 cars and making it one of the prettiest of all. While an automatic transmission was added to the options sheet with the series ii later in the year, this one still sports a proper 4-speed manual, a revised gearbox that's almost as silky as the bodywork. Toggle switches, not ordinary rockers, still control all the secondary functions, and big, round smiths gauges are a right british way to monitor the engine. That moto-lita steering wheel is real wood, and sumptuous carpets give it a plush, luxurious feeling inside, especially with those sisal mats on top. This car also includes a rare blaupunkt am/fm radio that has been upgraded for ipod operation. The series 1. 5 cars got a nice bump in performance thanks to a revised 4. 2 liter dohc inline-six. Still silky smooth and willing to howl to redline in every gear, it also produces more torque for american tastes. Polished cam covers and a gold spark plug valley easily ident. AM/FM✔ Leather Seats
