The Jag was purchased in 1970 as a gift for his wife, who enjoyed driving the two-seater sports car, until she got pregnant, and it was left in the garage after that, as a couple more kids were added to the family
This E-Type was recently auctioned by H and H Classics near London. It sold for about $98,800. The restoration will probably cost more than the car.
