#1 New member from south west of France

Post by marco33 » Mon Oct 07, 2024 12:12 pm

Hello everyone Thank you for welcoming me into your community. I live in the southwest of France near Bordeaux. After discovering the world of vintage cars for 6 years with an MGA 1600 mk2 roadster 1959, I sold it to acquire a wreck of a 1963 E-type 3.8. After 10 years since the acquisition and countless problems, I can finally drive this beautiful car and I am starting the running-in ..... It would not be funny if there were no new problems! Thank you for welcoming me and have a nice day everyone
Marc

Marc, welcome to the best place for all things E Type and well done for restoring your car. You should have found us earlier, maybe a few questions could have been answered for you. And don’t forget to ask questions, there’s a lot of information and help on the forum. The search engine can be very useful.

When you’re ready why not post a few photographs, you can use Imgur (see this topic viewtopic.php?f=2&t=19527)

Bonne chance
