Celebrated a major milestone in the 'life' of my 69 S2 E yesterday. Took him out for a shakedown drive @ 150 miles after the 123 distributor and CoolCat radiator installs. Turned the odometer to 00000. Purchased in 1989 with @ 72,000.

 

That is very cool. Beautiful E-Type. love the color and the passenger side mirror. Although, I don't know why, I thought your was an OTS.
Now enjoy the next 100K miles.
Bill.

 

Well done, and yes, the car looks great. Mine went past the 100,000 some years ago now. I was on a motorway at the time, and managed (with my wife's assistance) to get a video of the clock going back to all zeros.

 

And looking superb too.

Turned the images round for easier viewing:





I used to look forward to that special milestone in mechanical odometer days but it's not the same since the introduction of digital odometers.
