1961 Jaguar E-Type

#885013 is the 13th made, of 20, right hand drive prototype E-type coupes, hence the serial number #885013.  The car is one of 10 remaining of the original 20 and only 3 of these 10 have the factory bonnets, this being one of them.  The owner of this very special E Type was determined that the restoration should be as close to original specifications as it was possible to achieve. The goal was to build the car to be cosmetically perfect and historically accurate in every detail. To that end, we went to incredible lengths to source correct, often 'dated' components, restoring everything to precisely the same appearance it would have been new.  #885013 is the best E Type restoration we have ever done whilst working at Classic Jaguar and it took over 5000 hours to complete.  Not only is it a legitimate candidate for being the best condition E Type in the world, it is also correct to the most minute detail.
