Jaguar XKE

1964 Jaguar XKE for sale.

It is equipped with a 3781cc twin-overhead cam inline six-cylinder engine capable of producing 265 horsepower. There is a four-speed manual gearbox and four-wheel disc brakes. It has been treated to a full restoration and has traveled less than 40,000 miles since new.

The E-Type was Jaguars first production vehicle not to use a separate body bolted onto a rolling chassis. The E-Type employed the modern design of a monocoque body tub attached to a tubular framework. The hood was hinged in the front and opened upwards. Lying underneath the long bonnet was the engine, which was bolted directly to the framework. The front-hinged hood design had been borrowed from the C-Type and D-Type Lemans racers. This gave complete access to the engine, front suspension, and the firewall.
