This page is dedicated to the restoration of my '69 Jaguar E-Type, I have added some new photos since I first put this page up, so browse thru if you like. I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank two people without whom this project would not have been possible. Castle P., who lent me books and gave of his expertise and inspiration, and Dennis C. -both of San Diego- who lent me the rotisserie and gave me huge amounts of his time and techiques in Jag restoration. Both of these gentlemen are true Jag enthusiasts and I thank them wholeheartedly if belatedly.
This was the car as it looked when I brought it home, you can't see the rust or smell the gas leaks, but they're there!I also don't like the "braces" around the nose and those nasty side marker lites. They'll have to go. Note also those knock offs, not appropriate for this year, but much better looking than those hex shaped ones they came with in '69.
This is what the engine compartment looked like, it's all there and all original, and the numbers match. I later got a certificate from Jaguar Heritage verifying the originality, it's a very official and nice looking document, I'll see if I can upload it into this page later.
