This early signal red 4.2 E-type roadster was originally exported to the USA as a LHD FHC. On its re-importation to the U.K in 1988 it was restored to a high standard and converted to its existing RHD roadster specification. A comprehensive history file accompanies this excellent specimen containing all the photographs relating to the car's restoration and conversion plus a number of invoices detailing the expenditure of all the work entailed in this expensive and most extensive restoration. A Heritage certificate authenticates the original specification of the car as it left the Brown's Lane factory. With concours examples of early cars making in excess of ú50K at auction recently this offers the both of best worlds - the right specification at a most accessible price.
