I am a new owner of a jag e-type 4.2 that I have received as a gift from my uncle. My uncle purchased the jag new in 4/1966 and daily drove for 20 years. He won 3 autocrosses in the late 60's. The car has been repainted once and a lot of mechanical work in 2006. The jag has not been driven much in rhe past 5 year's.

Going to need help with parts like oil filters and an alternator to start.

Yes I am very lucky

The size is the problem. I do not know how to reduce the size of photos. Emailed myself a photo from my cell phone in the smallest format and it was still way to large. Looks like a need software I do not have.

 

I resized a photo and added to signature. seeing if it will show up. If not photo's are just not going to happen.

 

Scott,

I've sent you a forum PM (Private Message) with my eMail address.

If you want to send me the photo, I'll see if I can resize it for you.
