'67 E-Type FHC, Series-1 w/ Covered Lights

When the Jaguar E-type debuted in 1961, it immediately redefined the sports car landscape. With its sleek, sensuous lines penned by aerodynamicist Malcolm Sayer, the E-type quickly earned a reputation as one of the most elegant automobiles ever created. Blending racing pedigree with unprecedented engineering, its high performance and stunning appearance made it a global icon and a symbol of 1960s motoring excellence.

This vehicle belongs to the highly desirable Series 1 4.2-Litre generation, widely considered the most balanced iteration of the E-type. Introduced in late 1964, the 4.2-Litre models gained a crucial boost in torque and a fully synchronized four-speed gearbox, greatly enhancing its usability as a true grand touring machine. Crucially, this car retains the pure, original Series 1 aesthetic, including the iconic covered glass headlamps that were soon deleted due to U.S. federal regulations.

This 1967 Jaguar E-Type Fixed Head Coupé is a highly desirable transitional model, built in late 1966 and retaining the iconic covered headlights and Series I aesthetics. Originally manufactured for the U.S. market and delivered by Peter Satori Motors in Pasadena on Christmas Eve 1966, this Coupé benefits from rare and excellent original provenance.

Under the long bonnet lies the legendary 4.2-Litre XK DOHC Inline Six-Cylinder engine, famed for its smooth power delivery. This robust, high-torque unit produces 265 horsepower and is paired with the improved fully synchronized four-speed manual transmission. This powertrain ensures the Coupé delivers both exhilarating performance and comfortable, high-speed cruising capability expected of a true Grand Tourer.

The E-type's revolutionary engineering is completed by its monocoque body construction and sophisticated chassis, featuring four-wheel disc brakes and advanced independent suspension on all four corners. This combination of authentic Series I aesthetics, key mechanical improvements, and documented original U.S. delivery history makes this fixed-head coupe a highly cherished and collectible example of the quintessential British sports car.
