This is a truly unique and special example of the E-Type, being a Series I V12, rebuilt on a brand new Series III shell. The Series III shell was discovered by the previous owner, who already had the Series I car undergoing restoration, while he was assisting with the clearance of one of Jaguar's storage units. This particular shell was brand-new and destined for the scrap yard after being used as a test-shell for the fitting of the hood and frame assemblies, however it was rescued and utilised in the rebuilding of this car. This vehicle is presented with an extremely rare, genuine Jaguar hard-top roof. This car has never been on the market before, and represents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire an extremely collectible E-Type with an incredible story behind it, including an accompanying article in Classic Jaguar magazine.
