I would be very grateful if someone could tell me where I could source a complete correct exhaust system and a windscreen for my S2 1970 FHC E Type. The closer to Sydney the better! Thank you

Jaguar themselves make the correct original exhaust.

Australia is one of the regions you can select on the website, so I expect you can buy genuine parts there.

I usually buy the stainless Bell exhaust systems from SNG Barratt or David Manners in the UK. Even with air freight it's cheaper than buying anything here or having a system custom made.
This is generally true for just about any spares for your car. All the local Aussie suppliers do is buy from the same places in the UK and put 50% on it and on-sell to you. If you ask, most of the main UK places will give you 10% discount on everything.
I get windscreens from Complete Windscreens in Adelaide. They are just a generic windscreen place but seem to be able to buy and supply ones that fit.
