1964 JAGUAR XKE SERIES I 3.8 ROADSTER
Finished in stunning Carmine Red with beautiful black leather interior and matching convertible top, this incredible Series I roadster was delivered new in Tuscon, Arizona to its first owner and spent most of its life in the dry climate of the west coast. Accompanying this investment grade Jaguar is its Heritage certificate documenting it to be its original colors and matching numbers engine. This is an incredible opportunity to acquire what we believe to be one of the best examples on the market today.

HISTORY OF THE XKE SERIES I BY JAGUAR: 265 bhp at 5,500rpm, 3,781cc double overhead camshaft inline six-cylinder, three Weber SU HD8 carburetors, four-speed manual gearbox, four-wheel independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes. Wheelbase: 96″ The E-Type is considered by many to be one of those rare gifts to the automotive world. The brilliant car was the result of a very passionate team with a very clear focus. William Lyons, founder and president of Jaguar, headed the team. Lyons had a keen eye for style and a sense of taste that became the cornerstone of Jaguar but he was not a trained engineer. In 1950, Lyons employed Malcolm Sayer, a brilliant mathematician who had formal training as an engineer and a passion for automobiles. Under the direction of Lyons, Sayer shaped the body of the E-Type, thus creating what has often been argued as the most beautiful design. Jaguar had taken what it learned on the track and applied it the new model, E-Type. With its monocoque passenger compartment/tail section, tube-framed engine bay and tilting bonnet, it clearly descended from the D-Type. But its well-appointed interior, civilized 3.8L XK engine (directly from the XK 150S) and compliant suspension made it an ideal two-place touring car. The E-Types design is an artful blend of race car and road car. Not since the introduction of the XK 120 at the London show of 1948 had any sports car produced such a stir or so much favorable comment. In retrospect, these first generation cars are referred to as Series 1 cars. They are highly prized by enthusiasts, particularly those fitted with the early 3.8L drive train and Moss gearbox, with their racing style bucket seats, early dash panels and other unique features. Later cars are criticized for their greater weight, less agile feel and interiors offering more luxury than sporting influences

We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.
We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.
