Originally a left-hand drive model delivered to Puerto Rico, the E-Type returned to the UK for a complete redesign. The owner’s dream of a convertible crafted for warm climates inspired the removal of the soft top and a reimagined aesthetic for ultimate open-top driving pleasure.

Flawless Craftsmanship and Modern Elegance

The restoration began with a complete teardown and a rigorous assessment of every component. Extensive repairs, including de-seaming, reshaping, and chrome removal, brought the body to a sleek, modern standard. Painted in Opalescent Gunmetal, the finish radiates timeless sophistication.

Inside, red diamond-quilted leather elevates the cabin, while the polished aluminum dash and original Smiths gauges retain the car’s classic charm. A bespoke storage space, designed with the owner’s pets in mind, adds a thoughtful touch of practicality and luxury.

The iconic 3.8-liter straight-six engine has been reengineered with high-lift cams, a ported head, and increased compression for exhilarating performance. Electronic ignition, advanced cooling, and a high-torque starter motor ensure modern reliability and effortless power.

A Driving Experience Like No Other

With a new five-speed manual gearbox, adjustable suspension, and sports performance brakes, the E-Type delivers precision handling and refined comfort. This is a car that pays homage to its heritage while exceeding the demands of modern driving.
