This 1966 Jaguar XKE Series I roadster is a non-running project that came finished from the factory in Cream over a black interior, and it is equipped with a replacement 4.2-liter inline-six linked to a four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes a black soft top, 15″ wire-spoke steel wheels, power-assisted disc brakes, triple windshield wipers, an aftermarket radio, and a heater. The car is believed to have been taken off the road in the late 1990s and was acquired in 2024. This XKE Series I roadster project is now offered at no reserve with a Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate .

The Series I E-Types were equipped with covered headlights and taillights mounted above the chrome rear bumpers. This example came finished in Cream, and additional equipment includes a black soft top, a louvered clamshell hood, wraparound chrome bumpers, bright trim, a driver-side mirror, triple windshield wipers, and dual exhaust outlets. The paint is faded and cracked, and there is rust and body filler in the rockers along with rust on the hood.

The 15″ wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-offs and are mounted with General tires measuring 205/70. Braking is provided by four-wheel discs with inboard-mounted rear rotors.

The cabin features bucket seats upholstered in black vinyl along with multi-color shag fabric covering the floors, door panels, and dash. Interior appointments include black vinyl dash trim, a sliding rearview mirror, a Pioneer cassette radio, and a heater.

The three-spoke steering wheel wears an aftermarket lace-up cover and frames a Smiths 160-mph speedometer and 6k-rpm tachometer, while auxiliary gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and amperage are located in the center of the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 43k miles.

The replacement 4.2-liter inline-six features triple SU carburetors and was factory rated at 265 horsepower and 283 lb-ft of torque. It is unknown when the car was last running or serviced

The engine is linked with a full-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.
