[E-Type] JDHT

E-Type
1

Hey all,
Does anyone know to whom payment is made for a JDHT
certificate? I have my info and money order ready to go but
don’t know if it should be payable to Jaguar USA (the address)
or JDHT.
Next question;
The car will be finished (prob.) by the end of the week.
New trans/clutch and engine rebuild, +++,
I’d like opinions on the best way to break in the “new” engine.
How about how to break in the driver?
regards to all,

Upon my specific request, I got the answer “Your car has no additional

were any “extras” which might have got lost over the last 32 years …

I finally got my Heritage Trust Certificate in the mail last night.
I had sent the original info off in November so I guess they’re
running a little behind. It’s a beautiful piece of heavy paper
about 10 in by 12 in suitable for framing. Basically it just shows
the id numbers, original colors and build date (4 May 1970 for mine),
along with the main distributor and first owner if known.
Will make a nice addition for my office. For those who haven’t seen
one,
there is a picture of one for an XK-120 at

Hi Gang,

Double nice Jaguar day today. The weather has been very good here in
Ohio and I’ve been able to do quite a bit of Fall driving. When I came
back this afternoon the mailman had delivered my JDHT Certificate. For
those of you that have been thinking of sending in for one, I highly
recommend doing so. Looks like I’ll have to drive the Jag down to
picture framing shop tonight :wink:

Hi Mike,

My car was “born” January 3,1973. It left the factory January 17,1973
and was shipped to British Leyland in New York. There is no record of
the first owner. My car is OEW with dark blue interior and this was
confirmed on the certificate as the way the car was built. All in all, a
pretty neat document.

RE: JDHTs
I got a certificate from Coventry about 15 years ago. I don’t remember
what
information I provided to them but didn’t have a problem getting it.
What I am
wondering is what use is the certificate if you have to provide all of
the info
that is in it? If you can provide it and actually get corrupt data from
them? I assumed, perhaps incorrectly, that these certificates were
factory records to verify that what you have is correct as the car left
the factory. With all of the issues I
have seen on the list I’m beginning to feel that the JDHT has very
little value, if any.

Sent for mine (earlier this year)…received a request
to verify the motor number. I did and was told about
10 days later that they were waiting on more certificates.
Got mine about 3 weeks after that. Everything is
correct, and they added the original owner which they
didn’t have , but I had the original bill of sale from the
dealer and supplied them with a copy. NO PROBLEMS!

I think the idea is to make you prove you own the
vehicle and are not trying to construct a matching
numbers car from parts.

In my case, I have a signal red 70 FHC that by all
literature shouldn’t be signal red. I’ll bet a paycheck
it was cause it’s unrestored and there’s red in places
that only a total restoration would get to. One day
I’ll order her papers and find out for sure.

I also got my records of the car in 1989 or 1990 and had to provide proof of
ownership to Jaguar Cars in the form of a copy of a title certificate and
have found everything to be exactly as recorded when delivered and also
where delivered and date of manufacture etc. I have verified all the numbers
during the ground up restoration.

Lister folk,
Since there has been several threads about obtaining the JDHT I thought
I’d add my experience to the list. I received mine yesterday it took
about 4 - 5 weeks. I know some of you have had problems but perhaps my
eperience will inspire some hope for you. I didn’t have to make any
corrections, however I did ask a questions about it and got a hand
written note back from Karen with an explaination and comment. Thank
you Karen.

Next subject, for those of you that know I’m a rogue on the S1 open h/l
issue, as all the books say this ocurred on the S1.5 in late '67.
1E14606 was built on 1/19/67, it had open h/l when delivered.

Thanks to many of you and to the new books[Porter and Haddock] my love
gave
me I have found the elusive body number on my S11!!! It was on the rear
of
the body, under the chrome plate that fits between the bumper guards,
about
8" to the right of center. I removed the license plate, the holder, the
chrome plate-and there it was. Maybe this will save someone some work. I
have now completed my certificate form and Karen tells me she will get
the
process moving. Hopefully the numbers will all match!
