Description
This 1968 Jaguar XKE is a Series 1. The car is also equipped with a black soft top and is powered by its original 4. 2-liter XK inline-six, which is backed by a four-speed manual gearbox. Service within the last 1k miles included rebuilding and adjusting the twin carburetors, as well as installing a new brake master cylinder, brake vacuum booster, clutch, clutch master cylinder, and adjustable clutch slave cylinder. The body is finished in Old English White, and paintwork was carried out 15 years ago on one fender after it was dinged by a technician removing a wheel. Also pictured are closeups of tears in the black soft top. 15â? wire wheels are secured with three-lobed knock-offs and wear 205/70 Firestone FT70c tires. The braking system utilizes disc all around, and a new brake master cylinder and brake vacuum booster were installed in 2015. The cabin is trimmed in dark blue leather, and new matching carpets, hardura, and vinyl were installed in 1993, along with fresh underlying foam. The black dash features the rocker-type switches that were introduced for Series 1.
