can post a picture please?

was it originally fitted to the lid and a service bulletin sent out to do an upgrade?

hello
is there a good source for the trunk seal thats glued onto the trunk lid?
63 ots with a june 63 build date.
the half moon seal i recd from sng barratt/usa is very firm.

frank,
post a picture of your speedometer. the little numbers printed on it will tell you which ratio was originally installed. hopefully your speedo is original.

sent you a message. check your pm box.
thank you!

simon,
can you post pix please. what brand paint? base coat/clear coat?
pix of your interior? brand of kit?
thank you,
ed

stay tuned. sprayout samples being done.

andrew great list but light blue was blank. 8541L can now be added. brand code is 13885.

nexa color website shows 4385 as the code. their pog distributor in my area came up with 8541L as the light blue code for jaguar 1969. but he could not locate a formula.
still searching.

the official color on my series 2 ots is light blue. does anyone know the original or current correct paint code?
also the current fiat 500 in sky blue seems remarkably similar to jaguar light blue.
thanks
ed

for etype?

how are the new ones different?

chris(drcarrera), what brand kit is that? can you email me pix?
is the carpet flock nylon or wilton wool?
thank you

yes it does seem lighter than dark blue. i remember the leather and vinyl were identicle in color. i found original pix on xkedata.com that shows dark blue as i have seen in past. as an aside, the xkedata webside allows you to search for specific series 2 interior or exterior colors. a great search ...

chris, is that dark blue leather?

xkedata is a wealth of info. thanks christopher!

does anyone have a source for the original gray colored speedometer cable? all the usual suspects are only selling black ones.
thanks

referring to bas international(uk) as it has a good reputation.

hello
i will be retrimming my 69 ots in dark blue per heritage cert.
does anyone have pix of the perforated leather seats in dark blue? their sample doesnt seem dark enough and its kind of flat in sheen.
also is anybody supplying the flock type carpet?
