Car was in a dreadful state when purchased in 1996. It was totally complete, even with original aluminium rad and date tags on brake master cylinders. Under total restoration and RHD.
Expected completion 2004 summer.
Last licensed in 1980 in the USA.

Wonderful photographic record here, Dave. I saw your messages on the JEC Message board about this site which encouraged me to register and post a few photos. I will add the resto photos when scanned in & prep'd. See 861595.

Are you planning on converting it LHD???? If not, I'd stick it on a boat for JAPAN.. the car is worth a mint there... ;-) Car looks really nice

Whoops.. my bad... I see you're from the UK... you probably need it RHD...

Thanks for the nice comments about the car, it is now RHD but after all the work I have done its staying with me for a good while longer.
Completion still expected summer 2004.

Yes indeed Dave. The Dave Kerr of Montreal did to a 74 2002 tii BMW what you did to your Jag! A masterpiece...the only difference is that you appear to be the one that actually did the restoration whereas Davey had the work commissioned...definitely a credit to you Sir!My E-Type if you care to look is ue1s24352.Cheers!

Hi. I'm undergoing the restoration of a 1968 1.5 and your photos have given me quite some inspiration! Great stuff!

10+ years since original restoration, still in very good condition with a few driver upgrades, 5 speed gearbox, uprated brakes and seats.
Currently has 54000 miles on the clock which I believe is original.
