Magnifique! Beautiful!
You should add a few pics of the engine bay and the interior. A few details about the restoration would be of interest too including the modifications/upgrades if any.

Don't let it worry you Mike, but the front over riders look to have been fitted "upside down", i.e. left and right mixed up. Have a look at the xke-data website for comparison pictures.
kind regards

Hi Guys, thanks for the great comments.
I have attached below a couple of photos of the engine bay as requested.
Thanks for the observation on the front overriders I will check it out. :oops:
Radiator was re-cored with 20% added cooling and changed the fans to the Coolcat conversion using twin speed VW Jetta fans allowing a manual input for high speed fan.
Cheers
Mike
