I’m just back from a fun weekend at the Carolina Jaguar Club concours. As usual, I learn some things and generate some questions. One thing I learned is there is a fairly new resource for Etype parts. That would be Vintagejagparts.com
The back story is that one of our club members, Brad Merlie, responded to an ad in Hemmings that led him to what sounds like an estate sale of someone who had collected a lot of parts. Brad purchased the whole lot and is gradually adding images, with research notes regarding applications, and pricing to his website. I went through it last night and picked out a few gems that I can use.
When you search the inventory, be sure to select one of the “tags” on the right hand side of the page to narrow your search i.e. Etype 3.8, etc.
Brad is a great guy and owns a truly awful err “well patina’ed” 2+2 which won 1st place in the Preservation Class, of which he was the sole entrant!

Brad- Well, actually this is Damon Hill, but Brad looks a lot like Damon!
The real Brad.

OK and it’s back to work for me. Cheers.
