It is not known exactly how many of these Series 1 cars (sometimes referred to as for convenience sake as "Series 1.25," but per Jaguar, Series 1) were produced; 1,508 Series 1 roadsters were produced worldwide for 1967, and these examples were made in just the last several months of Series 1 production", and repeats itself "Less widely known, right at the end of Series 1 production, but prior to the transitional "Series 1½" , a small number of Series 1 cars were produced with open headlights. These Series 1 cars had their headlights modified by removing the covers and altering the scoops they sit in, but these Series 1 headlights differ in several respects from those later used in the Series 1½ (or 1.5), the main being they are shorter at 143 mm from the Series 1½ at 160 mm. Production dates on these machines vary but in RHD form production has been verified as late as July 1968. They are uncommon and were not produced until January 1967 and as they were produced as late as July 1968, it appears that there must have been an overlap with the Series 1.5 production, which began in August 1967 as model year 1968 models"
