Description

This rare Jaguar XKE Series 1 flat-floor, fixed-head coupe was originally dispatched on October 12, 1961, and delivered to its original owner, A.S. Flagg of Los Angeles, CA, on December 15, 1961. This is a very early flat-floor fixed-head example and it is one of the 51 transitional flat-floor coupes built by Jaguar immediately after ceasing production of the outside catch bonnet but prior to production of the dropped wheel wells, which were adopted in March 1962. It is one of 40 produced with boot and door latches (later models utilized machined latches). This is one of three coupes produced in Cream, one of one which includes tinted glass. The vehicle was sold to its prior owners in Atlanta, GA, in the early '70s. The owner decided to remove the original engine, installing a small-block Ford power plant; however, the original engine still remained with the car. The current collectors procured this flat-floor coupe and decided the proper thing to do was to bring it back to its original state. A three-year, nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration was performed to JCNA standards and was completed in 2015. Over $250,000 was spent on the restoration. Since its restoration, this car has earned many accolades, including the Hilton Head Motoring Festival and the Concours of the Americas at St. Johns (formerly Meadowbrook), where it earned awards in both classes. The 3.8-liter engine is mated to a 4-speed manual transmission.
