This Jag is for the true enthusiast who enjoys going back in time. This XKE has been restored by a highly reputable restoration shop here in Sioux Falls to a near perfect finish. All the running gear, power plant, electrics, gauges, and A/C are in good running order, with the exception of the speedometer which works, but not perfectly. I own the car, so call me, Terry Veldhouse, at 605-261-9638.
As you will see from the pictures, this is a beautiful example of the 2+2, which is gaining in popularity as a collector car across the world as fewer and fewer Jags of this vintage are surviving. The combination of features on this one make it almost one of a kind. Most 2+2 models are automatic, because the whole point of the 2+2 was to add an additional 4 inches to give room for the automatic transmission. This one is one of the 20% that has the 4-speed manual transmission. It also has a beautiful set of wire wheels, A/C, and the right mirror delete. All together, this XKE may be the only one like it in the USA.
The car came to the USA in 1969 as a special order to a pharmacist in Des Moines, Iowa. He sold to a couple from Alton, Iowa, to a man who owned a construction company. His wife was a school teacher who drove it to school. I have met them, as they came to visit the car when they found out I had it. She claimed it was the most reliable car she ever owned, quite a statement from an XKE owner. They traded it in on a new Cadillac in the eighties, where it was bought off the Cadillac lot in Sioux City by its next owner, a local antique shop owner and stock car racing team owner.
