Jaguar E-Type - Series 2 to Series 1 Body Shell Tail Conversion Kit - FHC Coupe & 2+2 YES - YOU READ IT CORRECTLY! - This is a collection of panels required to convert the tail of the body shell of a Series 2 E-type Coupe or 2+2 to absolute factory correct Series 1 configuration. ALL pieces included in this kit are factory correct Series 1 pieces or partial pieces, and we have used them here several times to convert Series 2 body shells. We have also sold several of these kits to other shops and private restorers, who have used them without any issues. This kit includes the following pieces:
- Photo #1 - shows all pieces included in this kit.

At Monocoque Metalworks, we often find GOOD E-Type projects - and then find them GOOD homes with GOOD people! In fact, ALL of our past buyers AND sellers have remained close friends! THEN, we stick with you as a partner in the restoration, providing technical support throughout the duration of your project!• E-Type Project Cars FOR SALE! - Our interaction with countless E-Type owners, restorers, and shops and suppliers puts us in touch with many orphaned and incomplete project cars. We rescue these E-Types from being parted out or scrapped, and bring them back to our warehouse, where they are combined with parts and pieces from our large stock of original parts to be a complete project car - ready for a new home!• Our E-Type Projects are RESTORABLE! - Too often, we see E-type projects being offered that are, quite literally, unrestorable… Many times, cars that have been burned, wrecked, or are rotted beyond the point that is economically feasible to repair are sold to an overly optimistic restorer, only to have their dreams (and their bank account) shattered - when they find out they have purchased little more than a title… Here, we make sure you KNOW what you are getting - AND what you are GETTING INTO!• Our E-Type Projects are COMPLETE and CORRECT! - Like everything else we do, rescuing orphaned E-Types is a labor of love, NOT a \"get rich quick scheme\"… Therefore, we work hard to make sure our project cars have the proper pieces for their Year, Series, and Model. We also pull together a project for you that is as complete as possible, but also DON\'T \"pad\" the project with worn out, unrestorable parts that should always be replaced, like radiators, exhaust systems, etc. In addition, we serve as an invaluable resource throughout the build, helping you decide WHAT pieces to purchase new, and WHERE to source them!• Our E-Type Projects CAN BE created to suit YOUR vision! - While we try to make all parts and pieces correct for each project, we can also tailor the project to suit your needs. For example, if you are building a high-performance driver, we can assemble your package with the better-performing Series 2 brakes, etc. Building an all-out racer?.. No problem! - we\'ll sell you a project that has just what you need for that and nothing more - and adjust the price accordingly!• E-Type Parts and Pieces for sale! - As our business has grown over the years, so has our stock of original E-Type \"used\" parts. A lifetime of dragging home every E-Type and E-type part I could find has left us with a warehouse of original parts that is bursting at the seams! Most of these pieces will be used to complete the partial and orphaned E-Types mentioned above, but others are available to complete YOUR E-Type!• E-Type Project Cars and Parts - WANTED! - If you have an orphaned E-Type project car, remains of a past Parts Car, extra spares left over from your restoration, or even a running & driving E-Type that needs a new, GOOD home - give me a call! Everything that gets dragged back here is stored indoors until it finds a new home - ON AN E-TYPE - that makes it ONTO THE ROAD! Take a look at some of our blog stories about the places we go and the people we meet in our search - then give us a call. I GUARANTEE you\'ll be pleasantly surprised by the honesty, sincerity, and ENTHUSIASM we put into everything we do! - Chuck Hadley- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Monocoque Metalworks - [phone removed by eBay] - Chuck
