Exceptionally Rare – Genuine Original 1961 Jaguar E-Type OBL Tool Kit
An extraordinary opportunity to acquire a beautifully preserved, genuine original tool kit for the very earliest 1961 Jaguar E-Types, commonly referred to as the OBL (Outside Bonnet Lock) cars.
This is not a collection of reproduction tools assembled to resemble an early Jaguar tool kit. It is a complete set of genuine period components, including the original tools, tool roll and the exceptionally rare original tool container.
Finding individual genuine early E-Type tools is already difficult. Finding a complete and beautifully preserved assembly of this early specification, including its original container, is an entirely different matter.
For owners of the earliest 1961 E-Types, particularly those pursuing the highest standards of factory authenticity, the correct tool equipment is an important part of the vehicle’s historical completeness.
