Default The Jaguar He Thought Was Gone Forever Turned Up at a Barbecue
I'm sure many of us had an early one that got away. In my case, as '63 S1 Coupe.

Here's a nice story from the Journal of one that found its way home...

According to the head of Judging for the JCNA a 1967 E-Type is not a 1.5. it is a series 1. The 1.5 tag is only for 1968s.

Default looks like a great read
Any other option to read this other than a WSJ membership/subscription?

Thank you so much for taking your time to make this available. A great read, and a great friend to have found the car and surprised him with it!
