Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
My father traded in his 69 E-Type OTS for this car when the V12 came out. It was the dealer's personal car, but never titled. He HAD to have it. Original color was Fawn and part of the deal was to have it repainted BRG prior to taking ownership.
I always enjoyed riding with him in this car as a kid; just the two of us going all kinds of places around Southern CA.
My father passed away in 2000 and wanted me to have the car. I moved it out from CA to MD in 2006 and it had not run for 18 years. Terry Lippincott did most of the work to get it running again.
Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:
None - bone stock!
Future Modifications:
Hidden Sirius radio package to keep everything looking stock
