I don't think I would've bothered with a roll cage for two reasons. 1. I makes the car lighter. 2. If I were to wreck this car I would not want to live. Like a captain going down with his ship.

Richard, Sir Frank Williams (of the formula 1 team) would not be a quadriplegic had the car he was driving had a roll cage. So there's two ways to look at it. Modern roll cages are extremely light. Rough guess on the e-type, no more than 10kgs or 25lbs. But yes, l would probably want to kill myself if l wrecked this beauty!

"If I wrecked this car I wouldn't want to live." I laughed really hard when I read that. It's not a matter of materialism... we all know we can't take it with us. But what we drive represents what we're all about. If you have a dream where you're in a car, the car represents who you are or what you are what you do and how you benefit the world or not. For me, I once had it all. I had retired at 55. Then the love of my life for 22 years traded in her angel wings for a broomstick. ( now you know why I use hey Sam Kinison avitar.) I went from what my friends called a mini Mansion to living in an old motorhome and drove an old beat-up pick up until just a few days ago when I was able to buy a nineteen-year-old S-Type Jag with only 90,000 miles on it. There's not a scratch on it, or a crack in the wood and the leather doesn't even have any checking in it. It looks brand new. It took nearly a year to save the money to buy this thing. I have to pay extra for premium gas. If I have a repair it's going to be expensive and I have to park as far away from the Walmart entrance as possible and walk just not to have somebody give me a door ding. Why do I endure all of that? Because it makes me feel normal again. Just normal. Not pretentious, just normal. I guess that's why I found your comment so well-placed. Anyhow, whether intended or not that car is like an XKE on steroids. I've had five Jags... not that that met that makes me an expert, but the XKE is the most beautiful car ever sculpted and the S-Type though totally different with its classic styling comes in second to the XKE. If I could have any car I wanted and money didn't make any difference it would be an XKE. Of course the Austin-Healey 3000 back in those days where was breathtaking as well. Okay ....That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

(So unlike the deluge of fat, silly-bearded, sweaty, stupid baseball hat, crap T-shirt wearing, multi-tattooed morons, who can't even make a coherent sentence without the "bleep"...that we have to endure on TV when talking cars! Just sayin'. Chill.)

The low drag lightweight is probably the most beautiful car ever made. When Enzo said as much about the E-type, he had to be referring to this one. Beautiful build!

Great work you guys! This is a pretty amazing buid and epic classic supercar feature.

Marco was there willing to chat about any and all aspects of the car, a great guy who was generous with his time and not super precious about letting people up close... even inside. Along with a particular Singer it was may favourite car of the show. Just incredible.

Vintage car is pretty much an impossible choice. Modern, something like the Pagani Huayra has so many details inside and out, so that would be my choice. That De Tomaso P72 is looking incredible as well.

OMG. Off the fricken chart. Quite incredible. A rare beauty.

Dry Sump engine, 45 Webers on Nikki Equivalent. I worked on private entry E -Type Jaguar entered the L-Mans 24 hour race way back in late 60s/early 70s.

This car is absolutely stunning. When you think of how long ago that look was originally designed, it somehow looks old-skool and futuristic at the same time. Beautiful.

Wow - this what an E-type looks like in my imagination. So refined - beautiful!

This might be the most ludicrous build that's ever appeared on any Hoonigan programming. The attention to detail is staggering.

One of the prettiest cars I've ever seen, maybe the prettiest. He nailed it. Congrats to the Owner.

This really is one of, if not, THE most beautiful car in the world. Wow. Lucky man!

He laffs like "haha these lights are from a Chevy" like he expects people to think in a negative way. But dude! U built somthing amazing the way u wanted it with w.e. worked and made sure it integrated perfect. Like this build is a dream any real car guy/girl could only wish they could do. Amazing

this was my favorite car at Quail.. and having spent 5 years building my idea what a cool one-off motorcycle should be.. i have a small idea of what this man went through building his dream car. that.. and we spent 30 minutes chatting during Quail. Again, this was my favorite machine there by far.

Thank you for revealing to us the best looking, most evolved E-type Jaguar EVER.

One of the prettiest cars I`ve ever seen. Love the aircraft switchgear, was gonna do that on my project too.

One of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen in 57 years.

Wow! One of the most beautiful cars I’ve ever seen 😍

Art Hands down the best automobile profile I have ever seen in my life. It's like the original line design was drawn up in front of a wind machine. Absolute perfection.

Eight years is more than just a labor of love. It's having care and devotion come so naturally that the work somehow becomes more beautiful than the car.

wow, what a sweet ride. thanks for sharing

Wow, just wow! The car is so damn beautiful and the owner is super cool as well.

I got chills when he popped the lid on the sort of chest compartment that holds the air intakes. Immense immense immense attention to detail. Incredible stuff.

That is the cleanest looking most badass thing i ever saw...the design element at the rear with the glass plate cover is a masterpiece.

This is a very nicely detailed E-type Jag. My 1962 BRG 3.8 Coupe had, for me, an additional refined appearance with chromed triple wire spoked wheels that gave the car an extremely 'light on its feet and very nimble' feeling.....it was the love of my life for 6 years!

This thing is 'bite the back of your hand' -beautiful!

What a car!!! That's dedication meets knowledge! Beauty on wheels

Always good to hear from another person who appreciates some good ol side-wall

I've always felt the E-Types were in the top 3 of "sexy" cars. That build confirms it!

Wow, what an amazing recreation! Love your enthusiasm!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

Properly executed build, done with respect to the marque's heritage. Best of all no amps, subs, disco lighting, or courvoisier drink set in the trunk or passenger compartment!

The door sills remind me of the ones like unto the "body by Fisher" on the '60 's cars from GM.

A true work of art. The E-type was one of the most beautiful cars ever built no matter crappy British engineering. This one is a true masterpiece and I can very well understand it took 8 years on and off to build. It was worth waiting for. :)

Stunning build! I cannot believe he sticks to the original brake system. These are notorious for creating all sorts of problems. The steering wheel turned out great. I usually prefer the original but this one looks legit. 👍

There is nothing quite like the curves of a classic, this is beautiful car to say the least. I think the backend and "hips" of the car is my favourite part of the bodyshape, looks so damn good.

What a masterpiece
