Thats a shame Scott as based on your usual modus operandi, I would have liked to have bought that off you for £600 in a few months time!!!

I've always wanted to do a nut and bolt re-build on either an E-type or XJS...

I was highest bidder on that Mitchell Cotts gearbox up to 2 seconds before the end.
Fortunately I decided afterwards that I didn't really want it! .... strange that isn't it?

Strip the primer filler off it back to bare metal and then get rid of the rust, spend £40,000 on parts and then have a car worth
£20,000, better to get one with a registration
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

but you could have made an awesome pro-street with the chassis. Big block or blown LS1, 12" wide rear tyres, full roll cage, bucket seats,
discs all round, and polished ali bodywork!
Kindest Regards,
Richard.

2+2 is the one nobody wants, it,s not just longer, it's higher too, and looks like a perversion of the standard coupe.
As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!

Unless you happen to be 6'4" and actually want to drive the car, then the DHC & FHC are far too cramped, I am such, and have had both,
now run 2+2

They are horrendously expensive to rebuild properly, and my 3.8 flat floor convertable that i sold in 1996 (ish) for 6k
that was a total wreck, is still not on the road, yet having had at least 40k spent,
and will probably need at least another 5k
The E-type is my favorite all time car, and IMHO nothing comes close to the beuty of it
