Wow, that's a heavy job.. Good luck with it! I hope you have all the parts because it may be hard to scavenge the country(s) for all those missing parts..

I have a Fiat/Ferrari Dino that's going on Feebay in the next week that's in not much better condition than that. It was just way too much of a project to take on, so I'm giving the next lucky guy with the fortitude to take on a big project to step into the arena of classic exotic car ownership...

I saw a similar Jaguar shell for sale not too long ago on CL. If I remember, it was only about $2500..

I don't mean to hijack this thread but there are two super rare Dinos for sale on U.S. fleebay right now, a red restored one, and a gray project car that needs to be restored.

Looks like a nice e type project.
After finishing my europa project that would be my next.
Already trying to find a e type project.

Have fun, if you can get it done in 2 years you are quite the mechanic.  My E Type took longer and it was in better shape to begin.

Hey Mike, there are two brothers in Oswego, IL that do award winning Jag restorations.  They have been at it for many years. They probably have any used part you may need or know where to get it.  JK Restorations 630-554-2120.  Jim or Gary.
