Sellers description:
1972 E-Type 2+2, 4 speed, splined hub wire wheels.
Factory air; 50K miles. Vin #1573171
I have owned this car since 11/97. And it has been my long term restoration “THERAPY” Not intended to be anything but a good driver.
Cooling system: all new hoses, radiator boil-out etc done in 98
Body seals: inside from front windscreen. Done in 2000
Heads: reworked in ’01. Sheaved .010; new valves and guides, shimmed to .080 inlet and
.013 exhaust.
Differential and clutch cylinders rebuilt in ‘03
Brake master was also done, but failed this year, needs a re-sleeve.
07 and 08 saw a lower and engine rebuild- crankshaft mains are .010 oversized and the shaft was chromed by crankshaft
Specialist in Memphis , TN . .010 oversized rod bearings, new timing chain and guides, new piston rings.
Distributor also freshened up.
Transmission front and rear seals renewed.
While it’s not quite finished – needs some floor pans, a master brake cylinder, and attention to the A/C.
It’s well on it’s way to being what it should be. It had 43K miles when I bought it, so it’s basically a labor project for
all this time. It had a paint reshoot in ’95 (before I bought it) so I have verified it’s history except for 18 months.
The emission system was also gone when I got it, and I have not installed another.
It also has an alternator conversion from Butec to Delco.
