eBay JAGUAR LOVERS CHECK OUT THIS FIND! Up for auction today is a book entitled “Jaguar V-12 E-Type: A Guide To Authenticity” by Richard T. Russ and foreword by Paul Skilleter. It’s hardcover, complete with its original dust-jacket and copyrighted 1991. It’s published and printed by Spirit Press & Publications. This book is a first edition and is signed and dated by the author, “Dick Russ 1992,” in black ink, on the first blank page. Here’s the introduction found on the inside front flap of the dust-jacket: The E-Type Jaguar has always been an exciting and popular sports car here in the U.S. as well as abroad, but it wasn’t until the past couple of years that the popularity and demand reached such monumental proportions. Unfortunately, not all of the E-Type Jaguars reached the same popularity as did the V-12 roadster. In 1988 and ’89 V-12 Roadsters in concours condition were demanding upwards to $100,000.00 and some as high as $250,000.00. You might ask how a few cars could bring that kind of money when most were selling for $65,000.00 to $75,000.00? The answer is they were exactly the way the factory built them or authentically restored to as near new as possible. This book was written to enable craftsmen to restore an E-Type exactly the way it was originally built or investors to be able to look at a car and determine just how authentic the car really is and if not authentic what it would take to make it so. Here’s the list of contents found inside the book: Introduction General Vehicle Identification Bonnet Engine Compartment Hose and Tubing Identification Windscreen and Door Windows Interior Seat Belts Wheels and Tires Hood Boot/Aft Bucket Rear End/Undercarriage Design Changes Factory Hardtop Factory Options Paint Finish and Interiors Factory Delivery Documentation Restoration Tips Sources Figures Decals Index The pictures you see above are as follows: Front of the dust-jacket, Back of the dust-jacket, Front of the cover, Back of the cover, Author’s signature and date on first page, and then various other photos found throughout the book. Don’t miss out on your chance to own this RARE, signed copy! It will not last at this price! This book is the best documentation, from a trusted source, that you will find for this particular type of vehicle, on the market. Russ uses low mileage cars to illustrate proper original condition. One car given in the book, has less than 100 miles. The book is brimming with color photos and has clear, detailed descriptions of various components. If you love to restore cars, or are looking to buy an authentic V-12 E-Type, this book is a must have for your collection. The book is in good condition. I have given a detailed description of the dust-jacket itself and the book below. Please remember, I am SUPER picky when describing all of my items.
