New Old Jag owner in Pacific Northwest
Hello, my name is Gene and I live near Portland, Oregon, US.
Last week I picked up a 1961 Mk2 that has seen better days. I managed to drive it back to my place but it needs help in just about all departments, so I'm calling it a resto, not a driver - yet.
I'll add more details as I discover them. This site seems like a good spot to learn about the process of making my car run well, then look as gorgeous as she deserves to.
That's it for the intro, I suppose. If I've left something out please let me know.
Cheers!
Gene

Congrats on your new Jag, I'm sure you won't be disappointed with this ride. That's great job bringing it back to life, make sure to create a build thread so we can follow your progress.

Not Inspector Morse ;)
Elinor, I am not going to repaint my Jaguar in the Black-over-Red that Chief Inspector Morse drove. A good TV show; not the best color scheme in my opinion. "Lewis" and "Endeavour" are pale shadows of "Inspector Morse"
Again, just my opinion
As far as the resto, I have every intention of enjoying every small success; every time one thing works better or looks better than it did before I started
I'll start my thread as soon as I start that process in earnest. Cheers!
