New to the game

I live in Brisbane, Australia. I've just bought my first vintage car and my first jaguar. It's a 1971 XJ6 series 1 garage find that's been well restored over 10 years. Bare metal re-spray and rust proofing, proffessionally reconditioned engine and running gear with new suspension, brakes and radiator, and new vinyl interior. Recent addition hidden stereo with Bluetooth connecticity and new aircon/heating unit. Originally a manual car but currently has an automatic gearbox, I am looking to convert it back to manual.
