This is the third Relisting due to NON-Paying Buyers! Come on Guys, nless you have the money in hand Please do Not Bid!! The good news for the NEXT Buyer, s that I have done much more work, nd purchased many more new parts for the car!! It is now REALLY,ready for summerdrivingfun!!!
After collecting most of the parts I would need to do a restoration of my XKE, decided beforebeginning, o start it up and see what I was dealing with. As the car had been sitting for years I began by re-commissioning the motor. After Soaking the cylinders down and hand turning the motor, went through thecarburetorsand ignition systems cleaning, djusting andmakingit ready to start. To my delight it roared to life on the very first turn of the key! After a bit more adjustment it was starting easily andidlingvery well. In addition to running the motor pulls great oil pressure, nd all gaugeswork.
After bringing the motor back to life I decided to Re-commissionthe chassis and see how the car drives.To do thisI went through the braking and clutch systems,makingthe brakes and clutch operational.
Theinteriorhas received a very through cleaning and leather treatment, ou can see by the photos that it is quitereusable.
Aftercompletingall of the above work I realized, hat the best thing to do was make it ready to drive so it can be used and enjoyed for the summer months. Than when the rains of winter close it, tart the restoration! To this end I have patched the floors and toe boards with Fiberglassmakingthem good for the up coming summerdrivingseason.
