Hi;
I'm Paul D I live in Halifax,NS,Canada . Not to be confused with Toronto which is 1600Km west
I bought a 1965 Series 1 OTS Jaguar E type from a guy in Pennsylvania 6 years ago. It was in 3000 parts & I trucked it home. About the only thing the guy guaranteed me was that all the parts were there & that they were all appropriate for the year. Well all the parts weren't there & it wasn't even a '65 but a '66 He was good to me though & every time I had a part deficiency he shipped them to me.
Took 3 years to put it together & another 2 to get it painted & an interior from Jonnathan Skinner ( had to take it all apart again, I'm getting good at it )
I'm immensely pleased with the car.
I've joined BCF to monitor /participate in your site to pick up all the experience of all those who have more knowledge than I, carbs, oil leaks ,transmissions,etc
This is my third Jag. I had an e type in 1984 and an xj6 in 1986. They all leaked oil. If it doesn't leak oil it's no ta 4.2L
Thanks for having me.
