The 'E' Type Forum

Well, in effect I have also an 1966 MGB GT, and my E-type is now as wonderful as I dream for.

Antoun Are you still in Bezons? I am in Carri?res ! Yes, I'm still living in Bezons ;-) We have an office in Bezons and am there very often - would love to see your E-type if you do indeed live locally Smile Cheers. In effect I'm still living there, but my E-type is not parked in Bezons, but in La ...

Salut Phil,

c'est une tr?s bonne id?e, mais je ne suis pas encore certain de l'avoir pour septembre (?a d?pendra du remontage...) Toutefois si ?a colle je serai ravi de venir !

Bien cordialement

Merci Pete, en effet, je suis tr?s impatient qu'elle soit pr?te (je l'ai d?pos?e d?but novembre, et je vais la r?cup?rer presque un an apr?s, mais avec un bloc r?fectionn? et une carrosserie ?tincellante !!) C'est vraiment dommage pour votre passage au mois de mai, c'?tait une occasion de faire conn...

Well, finally my E-Type was not ready for Silverstone (we found some "surprises" during the restoration of the body, but everything is clear now...)

Next week my baby will be ready for painting, and I hope enjoy it during september. The guy has done a great job, and made a lot of pics !!

Thank Heuer, I have learned something today

So the GTO is more a road car I think. In that case, I don't know which production car beat the E-Type... :?

I think the record was beaten by the 250 GTO in 1962

Thanks mystery type

We all know how the E-Type is recognized as a legend, but I haven't found any topic listing (if possible) the different awards won by the E-Type. I only know a few of them, so if you want to complete this list, it will be great ! :wink: For Heuer : maybe a topic like this can go there: http://www.et...

Oh crikey ! Spare me . Why on earth was this included ?

Well I liked Jay Leno's impressions, but I haven't said that I like the person...

Well, I have received my book today, and except the part with Ian Callum, I found it great. It's a celebrative book, not an informative or technical one. So it's really well presented with really nice photos. I'm not disappointed at all, because I was expecting something like this, and I have bought...

Well I was thinking about changing my original bonnet (of course I will keep it safely...) by a fiberglass model.

So I would like to know what is the weight of an original bonnet and a fiberglass one ? I already know that an aluminium bonnet weights 28 kgs.

If anyone as an answer...

Well if I were you, first of all, I will choose an existing color for the E-Type in 1965. Then between all these colors I will choose an opalescent one.

Furthermore, you need to choose a color adapted to your interior.

I can't say more than this...

Well I really hope my E-type will be back in July, maybe the week before Silverstone !! The painter has done an impressive job on a 4.2 liters...

Thank you Angus

In fact I'm really making plans to come to Silverstone in July for the E-Type 50 celebrations, but I don't know yet if my Jag will be road going for July ! I really hope so...

Hi Paul,

Hello Paul,

you are not living fare away from me. I hope everything will be ok for your E-Type as soon as possible.

If you want one day to talk in front of a drink, it will be a pleasure...

Well I'm a (quit) young owner. I'm 32 years old.
