1966 Jaguar 'E' Type 4.2 FHC - Fully Restored by Lynx

For sure, this is one of the very best restored E Type's we've ever found

A Canadian vehicle which was sent over here to be fully restored by Lynx in the early 1990's by quite a famous chap - a mine owner in Ontario

The restoration was completed in 2 years and the cost was a heady £80.000 (a new Rolls-Royce was £100.000 at the same time)

Lynx quite often upgraded cars and ours is no exception with their own cylinder head mated (ie no number to the head) to Weber 45 DCOE carburettors, upgraded brakes and suspension

The engine block was also changed during the complete engine rebuild

Original colours have been kept, being Old English White with deep red interior and nicely fitted with the Sundym (delicate green tint) glass too

Since shipping her back to Ontario our mine owner hardly ever used her and only 3.000 miles had been covered by 2010 when she was sold, only to be returned back to the UK

Once back home a delicate check over & concours preparation was undertaken with particular attention paid to the underside, suspension & engine bay and thereafter she has been displayed the Fete Champetre Concours d'Elegance at the Hurlingham Club Private Member Club in June 2016

She is in magnificent condition, both cosmetically and when using her on the road too

As we stated, this is without doubt one of the best restored 'E' Types we've ever had the pleasure of offering
