1967 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 Roadster — Black over Black, Covered Headlights
Reimel Motor Cars is pleased to present this 1967 Jaguar E-Type Series 1 4.2 Roadster, finished in black over a black leather interior with a tan convertible top.
The 4.2-litre cars are the ones most people actually want to drive. The larger engine brought more torque than the original 3.8, and with it came a fully synchromesh four-speed gearbox, better seats and a roomier pedal box — real improvements over the earliest cars without giving up anything that made the E-Type famous. This is a proper Series 1 throughout: covered headlights under glass, small front and rear lamps, tail lights above the bumper, and the black toggle-switch dash.
It sits on chrome wire wheels with Jaguar-centred hubs, and the cabin reads exactly as it should — black leather, Smiths instruments, a wood-rim steering wheel and a period radio in the console. Twin centre exhaust tips finish the tail.
We sold this E-Type earlier in 2026 and have now bought it back from that owner, so this is a car we know rather than one we are meeting for the first time. During our previous ownership it received a full inspection and brake service, and it showed roughly 51,500 miles on its return to us.
The car is on its way to our Wayne, Pennsylvania showroom. Please contact us for further detail, additional photographs or to arrange an inspection.
