#1 E Type OTS in Shell Lubysil advert

Post by Jaguar_Man » Thu Aug 20, 2015 7:40 pm

Came across a 60s advert for Shell Lubysil which shows a red S1 or 1.5 roadster. What caught my eye though was the odd looking hardtop it had, noticeably different than the original factory hardtop. I do know there was an "alternative" E Type hardtop that was produced, so maybe that's what it is.

I remember my dad (30 years a Shell chemist) had a bottle of that stuff. It stayed unused...

Who remembers the Esso Blue paraffin adverts and the 'Smoke Gets In Your Eyes' jingle?
