#1 Tony's new E Type

Post by ETTony » Tue Jun 21, 2016 9:49 am

Morning team,

Tony, living way down in deepest Devon.

After a long search, and it seemed even longer delivery I now have my E Type.

Series 1, 4.2, 1967, DHC, Black, from Florida. 54,000'
I will call it an interrupted restor.
Repainted as so many of the US cars are.
Needs new wiring and TLC.

I need to decide whether to convert to RHD, before I order the dash wiring loom.

Once i figure out how to, i will post some photos

Tony, welcome to the forum and E Type ownership.
If you look in the knowledge base: technical information and documentation then you'll find lots of info on LHD-RHD conversion.
There are companies who can do it for you, which might be a way forward.

E Types are lovely cars, you'll have great fun.
