SELLER’S NOTE

I am a lifelong classic car enthusiast and treat all my cars with the care and passion they deserve. Although this is an older restoration (completed in 2005), I have always preserved and maintained the car as if the restoration had been completed only recently.

Originally sold new in the United States, the car is now located inRome, Italy, where it has been stored in a dry, climate-controlled garage and used only sparingly since I acquired it in 2018.

The rare factory-authorized“Miami” air conditioning system, combined with upgraded cockpit insulation and a larger radiator, makes this Series 1 FHC one of the very few E-Types that can be comfortably driven year-round—even in hot climates.

I can assist witharranging professional shipping back to the U.S.for interested buyers.

This is atrue investment-grade Series 1 E-Type—ideal for concours events, weekend as well as long distance touring, or simply admiring in your collection.
