Hey guys, been awhile since i stopped in. Working hard getting ready for school.

Stopped over to the local Hastings the other day and saw a pretty good artical from S&E on a 73 Z vs. a 65 jag comparo. Pretty good reading IMO.

Check it out,

Dude, I have been looking for something like this for sometime - I own both a 240Z and a 1966 Jaguar XKE coupe. The similarities between the cars is more than passing.

I was always afraid of 3 SU carbs, but now I have 5 to deal with

What was the tone of the article? Did the Z compare favorably?

Yes the Z did fine!

Is there a thread so I can check out the article?

Thanks

Mars do a google search and see what you come up with.

Any chance you have any pictures of your E-type ??

Sure do! One is kind of blurry, bad shot.

Car is in nice shape cosmetically - interior is near perfect. Outside, the paint is good, not great (some minor peeling). Also, the bonnet is slightly mis-aligned, quite common on these cars.

The engine turns, but doesn't start. It needs a complete mechanical refresh - I will rebuild the engine, new hoses, electrics, and suspension. That's going to take some time ($$$), but it's such a stunning car, I smile just sitting in it. If you look closely, you can also see my 1967 Honda CL77 Scrambler in the background

I Googled this article, just get a link to the Sports and Exotic TOC, nothing else. Anyone scan it?

I tried a search before i asked for the link but couldnt find it I would love to read it
