Revisited: 1968 Jaguar E-Type

So I finally was able to re-photograph a car first seen on this blog almost 5 years ago. At that time it was far from complete. Now it looks pretty great. It still has the same orange stickers on the wheels. In chatting with the owner he informed me that 1968 was a transition year for the E-Type, referred to as "Series 1½". For example some cars had the exposed sealed beams, others like this one had headlights under glass covers.

So many great details on this car. The rear hinged door handles, high gas door, numerous round dials, vinyl interior, elegant badging. Perhaps hard to see are the chrome switches forward of the transmission stick.

This one may be from Europe - 900s in North America seem to all have sealed beam lights.
None the less it has that entertaining notchback style that was unique to Saab for so long.
