The seller says that this car is a very easy project as its body is plenty of dime-size issues which can be easily fixed: more than a project, we see a car which can be driven as is. Actually the true bug of this car is that the engine block and cylinder head match each… Read More A matter of dime: 1953 Jaguar XK120 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… Read More Aged wine: 1966 Jaguar E-Type O.T.S.
O.T.S. is the original name given by the factory to these cars to indicate an Open Two Seater car. This XK120 has been carried out from somewhere (an enclosed space we suppose) where it was sleeping since many years. Watching those strange wheels with those giant tires we suppose that the last time that this… Read More Balloon shoes: 1954 Jaguar XK120 O.T.S.
It was a long time ago since we didn’t see a barn find E-Type belonging to the first series: this means that some cars are still floating “out there”. This Coupé is painted in red and many could think that it’s the typical “resale red” used in the past on many sports cars, but the… Read More Enclosed cat: 1962 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Coupé
This 1st series E-Type has arrived to us from the early days of rock’n’roll: watching those very old tires it’s clear that this former car has been abandoned somewhere many years ago and then cannibalized of its engine and transmission. Now it’s just a rolling chassis. Someone could say that it’s just a parts car as restoring… Read More Rock and rolling: 1963 Jaguar E-Type Coupé
This is not the first report, nor the last of such event. Many beautiful and rare cars among which, not only in our opinion, Corrado Lopresto’s 1931 Alfa Romeo 6C Gran Sport bodied by Aprile in the early fifties stands out of the crowd. Also a Beautiful V16 Maserati from the thirties is not a… Read More Villa d’Este 2014: A photo report
The seller says that the mileage of this car is not guaranteed: chill out, we actually don’t need to know how many kilometers have been done with this car as it needs a total restoration. Unfortunately the photos are not good and made in very low resolution: sometimes we believe that some people must pay… Read More Mileage not guaranteed: 1967 Jaguar E-Type 4.2 Coupé
Hard to believe but this is actually not an Alfa: the body by Pininfarina came from a Alfa Romeo 2500 Berlina but the seller says that, as the photos show, this body fits perfectly on the Jaguar frame. The seller says indeed that during 1949 & 1950 Jaguar experimented with a number of body designs… Read More The not-Alfa: 1950 Jaguar MK-VII by Pininfarina
This E-Type Open Two Seater is a series 1.5, (chassis 1E-15625) so it’s basically a series one with few, minor changes. The seller says that it’s a former U.S. car which is in Europe since 1990. The clear attempt of the former owner was to build a tribute to the factory Lightwight cars which ran… Read More Lightweight attempt: 1967 Jaguar E-Type O.T.S. 4.2
This 1956 XK 140 is usually called “Roadster” in U.S. but the official acronym O.T.S. means “Open Two Seater”. The seller says that this car had a restoration some years ago; however the impression is that after that restoration this car has been driven few since. The seller says that he must part with it… Read More Nice price: 1956 Jaguar XK140 O.T.S.
