I rode with.my dad in one of these at about the age of 3 or 4. I sat in my dad's lap as we bounced up a minor hill to a somber retirement for the day. These cars still seem to thrill me even standing still. Yours is an exquisite doll. I can't imagine the headaches an toil she's put you through. Hope your able to show her at concourse. A very beautiful example. I am almost drooling. The women must be chasing you everywhere. That's the best plumb shading I've seen on an automobile. The tan leather goes well against the dark cherry paint. Thank you for sharing the pictures. Most greatful! Thank you!

wow this is in between restoring a car and a restoring an aircraft. the difference between 0:37 and 8:50 is insane. The oily version it looked rough and plain, now it looks like a 2024 drag car someone just built using the latest designs. I never realised they were really a stout work of art.. very nice!

I bought my 63 E-type roadster in 1975 for $900. It had been gone through mechanically but then wrecked and abandoned. I did the bodywork myself, painted it in my mom’s driveway. Had the seats professionally done but did the other interior panels with moms help. It was far from a “restoration”, but looked good and ran great. I think I had about $4k in it when I was done. Drove it my junior and senior years of college. Graduated in 78, and traded it for a used Ford van and enough $ to pay off my student loans.

Beautiful car and beautiful restoration with attention to detail. .My father owned a 67 Jag 4.2 E Type just like this one, same color and interior back in the mid to late 80s. I was in my late teens at the time and he used to let me take the car out for romp every now and again. Just amazing automobiles with a ton of low end torque. Someone once told me these were true 150mph cars. Thanks for sharing.

Just think, back in the Good Old Days you could get an E-Type for a couple of thousand quid that would do 150 mph and a guaranteed leg-opener as well.
