The 'E' Type Forum

Hi everyone
I did the big no no a couples of month ago. I bought a car in pieces that I never worked with before.
Previous owner did some work on it and a lot of parts are already finished. But it is many years of restoration in the garage for me!
So I am glad to find this forum! The car is an 1966 LHD OTS.
Regards Mats

Welcome Mats and we look forward to watching your restoration. There is a big Jaguar fraternity in Sweden (well there was when l bought a car from there 9 years ago).

Hi and welcome, and good luck!

Hi Mats......welcolm to the forum....enjoy your time with us.....lots of great info available thats already on the forum and always someone ready to help with any questions you have

Thank you everyone!
I'm now changing direction with my hobby going from a Corvette to an E-type. I had an accident with the Corvette that put it to an end. A failure in the clutch hydraulics started an engine fire. Without a fire extinguisher I could only step out of the car and watch the disaster right in a traffic jam. Not fun at all. Guess what will be my first extra equipment in the E-type?
But after the tears dried I decided to buy this E-type from a colleague. The restoration started for 25 years ago but stod still for about 20 years before I bought it. So now I will speed it up a bit.

Thank you all!
Ok, first five years are complicated! So now i have the easy part left.

Welcome Mats !

Sad to here about the fire, but good no one was hurt, only the feelings. At the end of the day it's just metal (and glassfiber). Happy to see a convert from US to UK cars
