Does anyone know a competent mechanic for a Series 1 E-type in Montana, preferably near Kalispell?

 

Can't help you with a mechanic, but there is an incredible knowledge base here on this forum, if you have specific things that need attention.

 

Thanks. There’s immense knowledge here. The problem for me is I can’t turn a wrench worth a damn, so I need someone competent to rely on.

 

Is there a british car or jaguar car club anywhere near you?? Here is one:

North American British Car Clubs-Northwest

E types share many of the same components as other BCs. The big difference between BCs and american are carburetors. Also, BC fuses are NOT the same as US glass tube fuses. Substituting US for fuses spec'd for british cars can have horrible consequences.
