1963 JAGUAR TYPE E S1 Convertible 3.8L - Lot 123
1963 JAGUAR TYPE E S1 Convertible 3.8L French vehicle registration certificate Chassis No. 878878 • Delivered new in New York • Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate • Original Carmen Red paint • 3.8-liter engine (non-matching numbers) Unveiled in Geneva in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type combines the styling designed by Malcolm Sayer with the XK six-cylinder engine. This first series was equipped with a 3.8-liter engine powered by three SU carburetors and is notably distinguished by its cork-lined aluminum dashboard. Delivered new in New York, this convertible comes with a certificate from the Jaguar Heritage Trust confirming its original Carmen Red paint color. Its 3.8-liter engine meets the specifications for this version but is not the one originally installed; the car is therefore not a “matching numbers” vehicle. It has recently undergone a service, including the replacement of the wheel bearings. In this open-top configuration, the E-Type invites you to rediscover the joy of driving a 1960s British sports car, accompanied by the sound of its six-cylinder engine.   1963 JAGUAR E-TYPE 3.8 ROADSTER French registration document Chassis No. 878878 • Delivered new in New York • Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate • Finished in its original Carmen Red color • Non-matching-numbers 3.8-liter engine Unveiled in Geneva in 1961, the Jaguar E-Type combines Malcolm Sayer’s body design with the XK straight-six engine.
