This E-type was manufactured on the 4th of June 1968 and dispatched on the 15th of August 1968 through Jaguar Cars, New York, USA in the color combination of Ascot Fawn with Tan interior trim. Supplied to its first owner Dave Bouck from Poway, California, the second owner was Jeff Summerour from El Centro, California who sold the car to its third owner, Herbert G. Lockhart Jr from Linwood, New Jersey. During 2014 the car was shipped to Europe.

Continious history since new, great original and unmolished car, benefits from recent engine rebuild and full mechanical service. Converted to triple Weber carburettors for strong and smooth running.
