#1 Finding an e-type from the past

Post by LeeRenshaw » Thu Aug 09, 2018 11:54 am

Hi, new to this forum and for that matter never been on any other forms either!

Basically, i’m Trying to track an old S1, 1966, 2+2 that my father used to own. I have some photos from back in the day in its original colour and would love to share them with the current owner, my dad would have liked that.

The car reg is GHP 654D

Thanks for your help!

Hi Lee..had this message from James
.....Hi there. Yes this was my car but sold it five years ago to buy a house. Was very sorry to see the car go, so much in fact that last year I bought a 1968 2 plus 2 which is my current car. I sold the 66 to a chap in ripon but haven't been able to keep in contact with the gentlemen and from checking on dvla he hasn't had an mot since I last had the car so it isn't on the road which us a great shame as car was in excellent condition when I sold it. Hope this is if help........
Unfortunatly a bit of a dead end Lee.....all tbe best... Steve
