RESTORATION PROJECTS

Production years: 1961 - 1968

due to changes in legislation in the USA, the E-type had to go through various changes which started with the substitution of the flared in headlights for an open type and some changes to switchgear in the car along with emissions systems for the engine. Interim changed cars were still identified as Series 1 models, but have later become known as Series 1 1/2 because there was no clear differentiation between the earlier and later Series 2 models in the specification

Production years: 1963 - 1968

The compact saloon range was expanded in 1963 with the introduction of the S-type models. Based on the Mark 2 monocoque, revised at the rear to accommodate independent rear suspension (and a larger boot area), the front wings were also modified along with trim. Internally more plush than the Mark 2 with new seating and trim, the car was only available with the larger 3.4 litre or 3.8 litre engines.The S-type models were dropped from the range in 1968.
