Thank you to everyone for your worm welcome, my E-Type must a been built in late December 1962 according to the chassis number, it’s finished in Opalescent Gunmetal Grey, has Webber carbs, Uprated cooling system, 4 speed all sync row gear box, Alloy bonnet and Upgraded Brakes.
I still have many Items on my list of things to do, the first one is replacing the wiring loom, but before I order one, I thought I would ask, should I change the car over from Positive earth to Negative earth with and install an alternator?
