Aged wine: 1966 Jaguar E-Type O.T.S.

Just like aged wines, some cars increase their value with the passing of the time, unfortunately it happens that often the conditions don’t follow such trend.

That’s the case of this 1966 E-Type which has for sure dragged away from some field or barn: the car looks abandoned at least since the Disco Music was a new trend and also cannibalized in some way as items like rear bumpers and taillights are not there anymore.

So, this o.t.s. (which is for Open Two Seater: this was the original name given by Jaguar to the roadster version of the E-Type) needs everything as you may expect: the car has to be restored completely but, differently from french or italian cars, you can find everything you need on the market; unfortunately many reproduced parts are of a rubbish quality so the best thing to do is recycling as much as possible. Find it for sale at $62,500 here in Astoria, NY.
