Chassis no. 5. Fantastic Car Paul Knott.
Very nice to have an inside look at the Moss Jaguar workshop 👍 And interesting to see such an early car like the FHC RHD 005, always learning something new
Really enjoyed both my visits there and it was great to watch the video as I wasn't able to attend. I loved learning even more about Paul's very special E-Type which will be featured in my book to be published next year but meanwhile watch out for it in a future issue of either Jaguar World or Classic Jaguar as Sam Skelton joined me for a fun photo session with Paul!

thank you for your feedback and interesting information. I think everyone interested in early cars will be interested. Thanks again for watching and sharing 👍🏻
Great day and really good to see you both again. Heres to the next time.
Thanks to YOU, Steffi and the team. Great job. Really loved to see the art of body bodywork on 047. Also good the see the interaction with all the visitors of all ages. There is great interest, considering how far people were driving to come. 👍
I always enjoy your enthusiasm, Michael! Great video.
Much appreciated. Thank you for the feedback. 👍🏻
So nice to see the community that Moss Jaguar has supported. 875047 looks epic after metal and nice to see 860005 getting the original details right.
@RichardMichaelOwen Thank for the nice and supporting comment. 🙏 047 is indeed one of a kind. Still so many wrong bits in the early production. Compare that with an October 61 body. All issues were improved and production became more efficient.
Thanks for watching and feedback RMO.
I was born in 1965 and love everything still about the decade
From music, fashion, films, the counterculture and of course cars.
There were many cars that were so SEXY made in Europe back in the day but the top of my list is the Jaguar Eype. Hard top, convertible/ soft top

I fully understand and agree with you 🙂, many thanks for your feedback. Keep living the spirit.
@@JaguarEType As I said in my comment about loving films from the 60’s I started watching lots of films.
There is a film called Woman Of Straw released in early 1964 by MGM.
Gina Lollobrigida and Sean Connery
Within the first few minutes Sean drives up to the house in a Jaguar EType Red colour
OH MY
The film was made between August and October 1963
I wonder what happened to that car
🏴🏴👍 👍 👍
Another great and informative video. You have opened my eyes to originality.
Totally agree what the man said on the engine all done, was to do the cylinder head the tappets and shims. The bottom half was fine he said it was fine and I totally agree. My dad would’ve said the same thing my father Fred gave me his series 1 4.2 Roadster thank you dad RIP thank you so much. Love you
35:25 owner panic when he started tugging? !can't stop prodding n touching..
I’ve got to get myself another Series 1 Roadster got too
Also who this Etype Specialist they look proper
The company was always Wakefield. They just changed the name to Castrol, their best known brand.
Many thanks, interesting to know. 👍
When you delve into originality as here then painting becomes problematic because e-types were not originally buffed really all new cars are not buffed even top end cars and with a trained eye you can see the difference from quite a distance and is done to remove cover up mistakes perfection/ originality is not buffing Mitch

What does best OBL mean
Outside bonnet latch.
Full restoration 80k ++ ?
@@flyinghedgehog3833 not a chance, prob close to 180k for a restoration of this calibre.
Phew but too much info going on there guys..think one can get a bit carried away, it’s a restoration not a survivor.. I mean at about 6.20 what’s all that about cutting out a hole then welding it back in, like the factory did? It’s not factory is it, let alone the fact it’s covered with a trim..
No knocking the workmanship it’s top class .. 👍
Valid input, you can always argue where to stop. It is a choice Angus Moss has taken and one day it might become important. We all know that Jaguar was developing and changing the cars on the road. Nobody of us would really believe that the very first E Type was the final series model. Would have been surprising to find an early E Type in 100 years, exactly the same as a 62 car.
But if nobody keeps these cars as original as possible, even as a repair, we will end up with one and the same model as per the end of series. I would not like that idea. So everyone to his liking. But keep in mind the difference in labour and cost.
@@JaguarEType fair point my friend.. in terms of labour and cost, we both know should you commission an establishment like ‘moss’ to carry out a restoration of this calibre you would comfortably be a country mile past the current values of the car, even that of an OBL..
Clearly thats not the objective for them.
Fantastic workmanship going on down there for sure 👍
