Thanks Fraser. I like the way Arden green has some many hues depending on light conditions.
 
I recall that you, or your paintshop, had problems getting a matching shade for your Arden Green, but that looks exactly right.
Can be taken for black in duller light, exactly as my 67 TC does, but it's emphatically green in bright conditions.
A lovely looking car you have there,sir!

Yes John. It was a struggle to get a close match. I supplied about 7 different codes to the painter, none of which could be mixed in Canada. With the painters color swatch book, we choose a close match, one of the Jag greens, but for some reason, it was also not available..... In the end, the color on the car is Forden Loden Green, which I can get readily for touchups, and is close to the original Arden Green. Sad that I can't get the exact proper color but happy the color is close and looks great!
 
Nice looker , love the rostyles . Some pics of the interior and oily bits if i'm not asking too much :D
 
Of course;

Lovely , I do like to see the engine and drawing rooms in a set of photos . Gives a " feel " for the car . Very nice :D
Ps that E Type looks like it's taking up allot of space , if you need somewhere to keep it :!: :D
 
Note that Roy has the "airtex" type vinyl seats - originally developed for the 2000S and very common on Canadian cars.

Unfortunately Stina, the E-type is not mine. It's another customers car at my engine builder's shop.
 
Exterior completed. Badging and door mirrors attached!
