Starting with a 1965 3.8S, Airmet Metal Works and S.A.Y. Racing have created a unique two-door sedan that has well over $10,000 invested in the custom work, engine, and paint with too many receipts to mention. The B-pillars have been moved back 6 inches to make room for front doors that are 6 inches longer. All bodywork has been done professionally in original steel and painted in Jaguar Phoenix Red. Obviously, the window glass and chrome-plated brass window frames have been remade to fit.

Under the hood is a classic 3.8-liter DOHC Six, driving through an E-type all-synchro 4-speed gearbox to a 3.77:1 limited-slip differential.The rear end has been upgraded to a Jaguar XKE fully independent suspension with 4 coil overs. An XJ rack and pinion upgrades the steering. The interior has been completely restored, including the lovely mahogany dashboard, and now fitted with two-tone gray cloth high-back bucket seats and matching rear seat. The trunk has been carpeted to match the interior. A multiple award-winner, this unique show car exudes skill and care in every detail. Fuel gauge has been found to be inoperable. It’s ready to become the thought-provoking centerpiece to any exotic collection, an intriguing concourse entrant or delightful tour car that will have enthusiasts performing neck-snapper double-takes as you drive by. It was also featured on the cover of The Waistcoats Album “Stark Raving MOD”.

The VIN is P1B77094BW and the mileage shows 91,173 and is being sold on a clear title. What are you waiting for? GET OUT AND DRIVE!!!
