Hello everyone! My name is Peter and I have a 1969 Jaguar E-Type Series ll. I've had the car since 1984 and she has rolled her wheels in New York, Washington DC, Louisville KY, Dallas Texas, Minneapolis Minnesota and now Sarasota Florida.

The car is an original, unrestored car with 49k miles. The original lacquer is Willow Green and the interior in suede green. Before relocating from MN to FL I had the motor out to replace transmissions synchros, install an new clutch, rebuild the head and install new exhaust manifolds. I also installed a new convertible top after painting the frame.

I joined the local Jaguar club and am seeking input on mechanic recommendations -- I will post that request separately.

I look forward to participating in these forums.

Peter
