I like that you used a 2+2. The extra length makes the additional width look more natural. Plus, the LWB E-Type is a better riding and more stable car at high speed in straight line. I have a S3 E roadster with stock engine and gearbox but upgraded with polybushings, oversized sway bar, and adjustable shocks. The car handles beautifully and the steering is incredibly precise.

This has to be one of the most beautiful builds I have ever seen. Lots of dedication and craftsmanship. I really appreciate it.

Agreed - an e-type exudes such a vibe and we love it.

Beautifully done and she must be an absolute blast to drive! I love the sound of the heavy duty engine and gearing…beautiful sound

Stunning to say the least. To have not only the vision of what you want, but the ability and resources to achieve it is astounding. Can you hear the admiration and envy in my words?

That’s a cracking good motor you’ve built, sir!

I'm an ultra purist e-type fan. I've owned three Series I examples. But I really like what you have done here. More like a Lister 'special' than a modification job. Has a Ferrari vibe (in a good way). Love the vents in the side. Great car.

Yes amazing work! I too though the side cut outs on the bonnet looked like an Italian design. The red didn't hurt either 😀

This has to be one of if not the most Beautiful if not the most beautiful e type or even car I’ve ever seen

That's a wonderful endorsement. I can't help but agree!

Beautifully made! Congratulations.

That car is absolutely sick .. What a stunning automobile and a great job on the build . 👍👍

What an amazing job and so much work involved. I'd have to give my bed away because I would be sleeping in the car.

Beautiful E-Type! Just gorgeous! Nice job, congratulations.

Stunning build, proportions beautiful, must be such fun to drive it

Totally how the E type should have looked ,eagle jaguar in England make amazing e types as well with perfect proportions and performance to match

From the UK, from a Jag lover, what can I say. Thank you. Jaguar was always about innovating and pushing. I think you’ve done them proud.

Brilliant. Absolute perfection!!!

"I had to do it". Sounds like a pretty good reason to me.

great unique personal build . I have done a 3000 hour concourse restore on my 1970 E-type series 2 2+2 Regency red ,Biscuit interior gets lots of praise. >BUT some days I think would have been nice to have made a restomod lightweight very personal styled E-type . Good job !

Such a beautiful car. You do amazing work

Best build I've ever seen on KZread - and I have spend the last few years due to COVID watching a lot of them. Wow. If I won powerball I'd ask for you to build me one of those. Art.

Makes me think an early 60s E Type and a 1959 Ferrari Testa Rosa had a child. The red paint helps the affect. Cool!

Very cool way to see it! Thanks for watchin!

I always thought that an E type would look great a little bit wider. Vary happy to see what you have done. Great job. A huge project well executed. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

No one else has one amazing

The most beautiful car in the world 👍🏾 well done

Many will call you a Philistine, but I understand exactly why you did this. It looks fabulous. Somebody did this to an Austin Healey 3000 and that looks fab too. It is like comparing a Spitfire Mk 5 with a Mk XIV.

This is a stunning build👍 If you didn’t know it you could be forgiven for thinking it was built in period after hours by the original E-type team💗

Lovely job. It looks exactly as wide as the Touring Version of the E Type, also known as the Jaguar XJS. I've had the same XJS for the last 17 years. It was built in 1989.

Love the attitude, "I had to do it.".

Absolutely the dogs nuts !

Beautiful job!

Hugely inspirational!

She is one wicked beast! The classic Lady in Red! 🔥❤🔥

Holy smoke, a brilliant Masterpiece....................

Beautiful.

Wonderful

Absolute beauty

I would like to see one with a shorter wheelbase (this is a series 2)....maybe 100" wb instead of 96" S1 and 108" S2. A front engine XJ13~ is an idea worth pursing also.

There is a new one being built, Design Velke is currently doing a different variation.

Damn the Purist full speed ahead !

It's your eye , you've got a good eye!

I always loved the lines of the e-type but always thought that the body always made the wheels look really skinny. I think this is how they should have looked from the factory.

right on the money with that thought!

I'm a purist. However, this car makes one speechless! Be interesting with the right checkbook whether he would part with it or build another?

Great job! The E type always needed to be wider.

😁👍

Ill take two.

Just one leteel goutte d eau derrière le pilote lui donnerait tellement plus de charme qu elle a déjà mais la goutte a 2 utiliter en cas de tonneaux est ca fait tellement plus courses 24 h du man

Et direct le échappement latéraux manque elle est pas fini cette type qu on peux juste regarder en cas d accident en courses pas d arceau problème pour faire le pilote vous aimer vivre à crédit

Looks better then. An original E Type In my opinion.

Beautiful.
