I bought one of his 'original factory photographs' recently, turned out to be a scanned pic from Autosport :? . Don't know how he gets away with it but it's lots of money for old rope.

Me too. Mine were decent quality scans printed on epson photo paper, but not original factory photographs as advertised.

The Shell building at Goodwood was also home to a company building GRP E types untill they were no doubt turfed out when it was converted into a hospitality suite for the first revival meeting back in '98. wonder if they are linked to the crowd that built the car on ebay?

Mmmmmmmm........now with a potential S engine as he has put the number on the listing, though it's very hard to see if it has the extra stud and nut, I can hear the stampede of locals rushing to see it now :lol:

that one is waaaay back in the garage sleeping

i had to move it a little the other week to (ahem) make space for another purchase

i sat in it and dreamed for 1/2 hour and just took the condition of the seats in, they are its strongest point (unlike the boot floor!) :lol:
