This 1968 Jaguar XKE is a Series 1.5 coupe that was refurbished and modified beginning in the late 2010s through 2020 using styling cues from the E-Type Lightweight cars raced at Le Mans in the early 1960s. Refinished in Opalescent Blue, the car has been fitted an RS Panels wide rear fender kit and Le Mans-style sill end extensions as well as a covered headlamp conversion and a Monza-style fuel filler. The car rides on GAZ adjustable shocks and is equipped with switchable electric power steering in addition to 15″ Dunlop-style wheels wrapped in Avon tires. On the inside, the cockpit has been outfitted with a roll bar and houses GTS Classics fixed-back bucket seats, Crow multi-point harnesses, a Moto-Lita steering wheel, a Retro-Air air conditioning system, and a RetroSound Bluetooth-capable digital media receiver. The replacement 4.2-liter inline-six was overhauled as part of the refurbishment and is fitted with triple Weber carburetors, while shifting is via a four-speed manual transmission. This modified XKE coupe is now offered on dealer consignment with refurbishment photos and records and a clean Arizona title that lists the vehicle as a 1969 model year.
