Default Greetings from Florida

Good Evening Forum,

I've sorta of been watching this forum for the last few months and finally decided that I would like to join in order to inform the Jaguar community of the restoration of the one and only iconic 1960 XK 150 Zagato Jaguar I own. The car was shown on the Zagato stand during the 1960 Paris Auto Show. It will soon be undergoing a complete ground up restoration. The car was once thought lost but has been in my family since 1964. Many Jaguar enthusiast don't know that the legendary Milianese coach builder actually built three of these cars, one being an XK140 and two XK 150s. In fact I had one Jaguar enthusiast tell me it wasn't a Jaguar until he personally saw it. With this said I cannot tell you where this car will be undergoing the transformation, but you will be able to follow the process via the Internet.

Not sure if I'm allowed to post the URL for the website where people can watch the progress. The restoration is being done professionally and should begin towards the end of Nov or beginning of Dec. But if you search using Google you will find it rather quickly. However, I will inform the XK community when new information has been posted.
