- CMC experience of very early E-types second to none
- CMC have restored the first, second and fourth E-types
- Chassis numbers 1, 2, 4, 24, 84, 94 been or being restored
No less than six seriously early E-type Jaguars have been, or are being, restored by pre-eminent Jaguar engineers, Classic Motor Cars.These include the earliest of all, the prototype famously registered 9600 HP, plus the first production RHD Fixed Head Coupé. Currently undergoing a similar meticulous rebuild is the fourth roadster, a car which belonged originally to Jaguar's legendary 'Lofty' England.
Other very early cars that have benefited from CMC's unique experience include numbers 24 (the Daily Mail 1961 competition car), 52, 84 and 94. The E-type was, and is, a brilliant car but these very early cars have an extra cachet, and most are the charismatic external bonnet lock cars that identify them as exceptionally early examples.
Classic Motor Cars can be found at Stanmore Industrial Estate, Building 6, Bridgnorth, Shropshire, WV15 5HR, UK. To discuss all aspects of classic Jaguar work, contact Nick Goldthorp on: tel +44 (0)1746 765804, fax +44 (0)1746 768404 or mail@classic-motor-cars.co.uk
