#1 New member from Essex

Post by Drive35 » Fri Jan 24, 2020 6:50 pm

Hi there. Joined the club recently after buying a 1970 S2 2+2 FHC. Was a US car, with a high mileage initially, but has been in storage for at least 25 years. Generally in fair condition and on the road, but needs lots of mechanical work - have already got the steering rack out as leaking badly. Will get some pictures, once I can move it out of the garage!
Have been into old cars all my life, but this is my first Jaguar - also have 2 Fords from the 1930's

Morning Geoff. You'll get a very warm welcome to this wonderful forum for the wonderful club you now belong to as an E type owner... So not only many happy hours enjoying your car but also many happy hours, normally with a glass of something in the darker hours, cruising the informative pages found here.

Hi Geoff and welcome. Nice to hear of another member in Essex.
I'm sure you'll find the forum invaluable. I've accumulated much of my modest knowledge from here.
