What a nice looking E Type, sounds good too.

You are one lucky guy.

When are you going to take us out for a road trip in it?

 

once i rebuild the carbs, replace the water pump seal and bleed the brakes

gonna see if i can take her up to the shop so i can use my lift. itll make working on it alot easier. not to mention ill have my tools in front of me.

also gotta re weld the exhaust

 

You should probably have brakes before trying the road trip!

She does look and sound good though, a really nice car.

 

The weber mod is popular in the UK, I have a set on a manifold if you fancy swapping your S.U. set - you'll need a higher pressure fuel pump like a Facet, and a fuel pressure regulator, or the back two cylinders foul, you get pressure differences between carbs.
It's a series 2 4.2?
