Introduction
 
Hi everyone, i have just joined. I currently have 2 jaguars, a 1966 3.8 s-type which has been fully restored, and a 1969/70 420G which I am currently working on. I recently retired (a very early retirement) so i am working on my cars on a daily basis. I am trying to convert the 420G to a manual setup but she still has a long way to go (and i am not complaining...). I am from South Africa which means that spares are very scarce!

Regards
Riaan

Welcome. We have another South African who posts to the classics forums, Glyn M Ruck,

Your S-series looks wonderful! I would want to spend a lot of time hanging out in the front seat too,,, lol.

Good luck with the restoration of your newly acquired 420G.
