MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! <\/span>Well, I found the old girl a GOOD home, where she is going to be appreciated for what she is!\u00a0 We just made arrangements with a gentleman in the UK to bring the car back to where she was born, and who is planning to restore this E-Type and enjoy fun afternoons – with the grandkids tagging along in the back seat – PERFECT!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve gotta tell you, I’m pretty proud of myself on this one!\u00a0 This E-Type has been sitting indoors for 30 YEARS – and too often, an early 2+2 like this would have been parted out…\u00a0 Well,…\u00a0 NOT ON MY WATCH, BABY!!!\u00a0 This is a great car, and I’m looking forward to following along as she is restored to her former glory – and DRIVEN!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks, Dave, and Good Luck with the project! – Chuck<\/span><\/p>\n

I recently arranged to purchase a large batch of E-Type parts and pieces, and included in the deal is this orphaned 1968 E-Type – Series 1.5, 4-speed, 2+2.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I really like these early 2+2’s – I have one just like it downstairs and drive it every day this time of year – they are GREAT!\u00a0 On top of that, they are a BARGAIN!<\/span><\/strong> I have found that the Series 1 and 1.5 4-speed 2+2’s are a real “hidden gem”!\u00a0 In my opinion, they are currently the best kept secret in the E-Type hobby, and a fabulous car in their own right!\u00a0 <\/strong>So if you are still looking for the right E-Type project – read on – this just might be it!<\/p>\n
