Hi all, first time owner checking in… very lucky to have collected this beauty last week. Owned by a family friend for over 40 years, off the road for 12 of those for a complete rebuild, the result is a real credit to him. Looking forward to spending time here, what a resource!

Andrew, welcome to the best place for all things E Type. And congratulations on owning such a lovely car.
Now a big word of advice…..
Have lots of fun and enjoy that grin on your face every time you drive the car. Admire the glances from people and the reflections in shop windows as you drive slowly along the high street :bigrin:
