E-Type OTS 3.8-litre with matching numbers
We are offering one of the highly sought-after, early, stunningly beautiful Series 1 OTS (Open Two-Seater) models with a 3.8-litre engine, in absolute concours condition.
E-TYPEs from 1961 to June 1964 featured the beautiful, compact bucket seats and aluminium dashboard, and were minimalist in design.
Restored by our team to the highest standard with full matching numbers.
The chassis no., engine no. and gearbox no. correspond exactly with the verified Heritage certificate. For the collector, as a reliable classic to drive yourself or as a design icon of the century that you simply want to own.
This E-Type was built on 7 November 1962 and subsequently shipped to New York in the USA, where it was registered in early 1963. America had no serious sports cars of its own, loved the E-Type and had the money. Nearly 70% of left-hand-drive E-Types were sold to the USA, particularly the Roadsters (OTS).

In 2020, we found this E-Type in very good, unrestored condition. It has matching numbers, a very solid body and all the key chrome fittings. This is crucial for achieving a perfect overall finish once the restoration is complete. The reason: even at the factory during the production of the E-Type, these parts – headlamp bezels, front and rear bumpers, and the rear lights – were fitted to the bodywork. Replica parts are available, but they never really fit properly. The E-Type was shipped to Europe and the nut-and-bolt bare-metal restoration began.
As with every E-Type we restore ourselves, every single screw is examined by hand, all cavities are opened up, and only body panels that cannot be repaired are professionally cut out and replaced with new ones. We always place the utmost importance on working exactly as the Jaguar factory did in the 1960s. All weld points are correct, every detail is in its proper place, and only tin was used instead of body filler to level the surfaces. A technique that only a few specialists still master and use today. The gap dimensions, the surfaces and the flat body panels speak for themselves here. Two coats of clear lacquer have been applied, and the finish has also been ceramic-sealed.
The restoration took over 2,000 working hours by our experts. Following a complete overhaul and before being fitted to the E-Type, the matching-number engine was tested on a dynamometer alongside the gearbox. We also treated the E-Type to historically accurate 6x15 Curley Hub Competition wheels.

Following its complete restoration, which was completed in 2021, we test-drove the E-Type for 400 km before handing it over to the then buyer and current owner.

Since then, the E-Type has always been kept dry, clean and safely parked in a high-calibre collection, has covered 1,000 km to date, and comes with German registration documents.
This E-Type offers you the highest quality and drives perfectly. A dream car in the 1960s, just as it is today. You will not find a better restored E-Type S1 OTS.
