Originally delivered to Jaguar Cars New York in 1961, this outstanding, matching-numbers 'flat-floor' E-Type Roadster, Chassis No 876086, is finished in its original factory hue of Opalescent Blue with Red Hide and a Blue Hood. Superbly presented, this lovely Jaguar warrants any inspection and the attention to detail is exemplary throughout, from the exterior to the interior, from the engine bay to the boot. Returning to these shores in 1991, the Jaguar was repainted red and body modifications to the floors carried out, further work thereafter continued the ‘cosmetic’ rebuild. Some years later, the present custodian acquired the car and commenced an in-depth restoration returning the car to its original ‘flat floor’ specification and colour combination and converting it to right-hand drive. He was careful to retain the many original features such as early driveshafts, hub carriers and front suspension all correctly finished in black with black fasteners, Kelsey Hayes bellows servo pedal box and three post throttle linkage. With early, ‘Holy Grail’ E-Types still being in high demand, this particular example comes highly recommended and is ready to grace any collection or Concours field.
