• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I went to a local dealer in Albuquerque yesterday and to may surprise (and delight) I saw this sitting in the show room floor. It's not for sale but apparently belongs to the owner of the dealership. [For those who don't have a clue - it's a 1966 Jaguar E-Type (sometimes called (incorrectly) an XKE).]:
(That color is British Racing Green - NOT Dark Moss :cool: )

That’s a beauty, too! Back before I moved to NYC I had a 1964 Stingray. Closest I ever got to an E-type.

That Vette is worth a fortune now!

Probably not. Numbers didn’t match. It was more of a driver, but it was fun to drive. Cars today practically drive themselves. You really needed to stay on top of that Vette. I miss that. Every once in a while I put the Telluride in sport mode and manual shifting. Not the same without a clutch, but better than nothing.

I much prefer a manual shifter for a real driving experience.
