red68xkeengine2

The car still has it’s original matching-number engine. As a Series 1.5, it was originally delivered with ribbed cam covers and 2 Zenith-Stromberg carbs. However, George and his team have taken the engine bay back to full Series 1 specs – installing smooth cam covers and NEW triple SU carbs and intake. Other improvements under the bonnet include an aluminum Ron Davis radiator and a high-torque starter, plus a new electronic distributor – among others. Also note the high level of restoration apparent in this shot – ALL NEW frame rails from E-Type Fabs, performance tires on wider, NEW stainless steel spoked center lace Dayton knock-offs, and paint everywhere that looks like liquid Gold! But while it will BLOW AWAY the competition at any local show, this E-Type was built to RUN – QUICKLY!
