The 1971 Jaguar E-Type convertible is well on it’s way to being stripped but with the paint shop ready and waiting we just needed to remove the final few pieces and get her ready for her full respray.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”4485,4486,4487,4488,4489,4490,4491,4492,4493,4494,4495,4496,4497,4498″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Once the entire body has been stripped and everything that needs to be removedย has been you are left with a very naked shell.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Now back from Car Glass and Trim, the ceiling cloth and glass are almost complete. We were hoping to have it turned round within the 24 hour window we had but unfortunately not everything can go according to plan.
Only a few alterations that need to be made so all should be complete within the next few days.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”4482,4480,4479,4478,4477,4476,4475,4474″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Whilst Asa and John were working on the ceiling and glass Gordon was able to cover the boot area with sound deadening pads.
We do like to use sound deadening pads on our restorations where possible asย helps to create a nicer sound and feeling when you drive the car. It’s not a huge job to do but one well worth doing.
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]With both our 1990 Jaguar XJS and 1999 Jaguar XJR Superchargedย now prepared and ready for this week’s classic car auction in Kings Lynn, as with all of our classic cars, it was time for the final photoshoot.
The setting we chose was the stunning grounds of Kersey Mill, just outside Hadleigh in Suffolk.
We’ve known Alison and Steve at Kersey Millย for many years and we are so grateful that they allowed us around the grounds for the morning.
As always, Jason at Sugar and Spice Photographyย does a superb job for us. The great thing about Jason is he’s a true professional, he’s a master at what he does which means I can sit back (apart from when I’m taking pictures of him sitting back) and let him get on with the job in hand.
It was also lovely to see a Riley RME 1500 parked up at Kersey Mill, was shame the owner was not nearby otherwise they too could have joined in the shoot.
Here’s a sneak preview of some of the images from the shoot.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”4463,4465,4466,4464,4447,4448,4449,4450,4451,4452,4453,4454,4455,4456,4457,4458,4459,4460,4461,4462,4467,4468,4469,4470″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
