Long time browser, newbie to forum posting.

Finally, looking to pluck ideas/info. on possible places to get work done. :embarrass:

Well, I was going to suggest "your garage" 'til I saw the "mechanically disinclined" in your sig. And you own British...... Somebody down south get this guy some shop leads.

Good luck

Welcome, I like the Jag, always liked classic Jags

Sorry but the closest shop to you I've heard decent things about is Banzai Motorworks in Maryland.

Also love the Jag.

Anyone who liked the early 60's Jags seems to love the Z. Enough similarity of form to allow a connection.

Welcome to the site, you've come to a very friendly, knowledgeable place.

Hi, Chas, and welcome from another low-VIN seeker.

Referring to your XKE, of course; that must be well down there. A friend

of ours has and is the original owner of #38 which I believe is a '62, might

be a '61.

All Z Best,....................................Kathy & Rick

Thanks all.

Both cars have been in the family a long time, I received the Jag from a deceased relative. It has been sitting 20+ years and I tried for about that same length of time to buy it.

I've owned "Fraulein" since early 90's, but it is/was the victim of to many other things going on and now has been sitting in garage for a LONG time awaiting a re-birth.

Unfortunate for both, I realize I'm only good at either basic maintenance or tearing things apart.

(***My first Z, "Diane," came with a name so I stuck with that tradition.)
