waiting for the next phase of work how can you wait with suge a great car.

[Beardings]

It is about having the funds and time to do the work to the right quality. It may take a few years, but the result will ber great.

I have put together some photos of the car in use and during the restoration work. It is entitled 'Jaguar E-Type 1965 Restoration Project Slideshow'

I wonder what the cost is to buy a banger and restore it, verses a completely restored 65 E?

[Beardings]

My advice would be to buy the best car you can afford and work on that rather than buy a cheap car and undertake a big restoration. In my case, I have owned this car since 1976 (bought for £1,600) but it has been in storage for a long time and needed work on the body before it could be used again.

this looks like an E that was at an autobody tech class in the Seattle area... same primer color... i wonder

[Beardings]

No, the car is in Oxford England. Just planning to start work on it again.

Is it finished yet?

[Beardings]

No, I had to take a break to save up for the next stage. I am planning to start work again in a few months.

[DeadOriginal]
