The 'E' Type Forum

Thanks Angus and crew for a great meeting. Good to put faces to names and view so many outstanding examples.

Special thanks to Jeremy for showing us his exceptional example and to Catusman for crawling around on the floor showing me correct jacking points :-).


Cheers

John

Hi All First of probably many questions. Right hand front trim was incredibly lose and heavily scratched so ordered a replacement from SNG Barratt as this sort of detail annoys me. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1855/42532334600_14bd91e520_c.jpg IMG_1337 by John , on Flickr https://farm2.staticflick...
