Essential Reading by Porter Press
Stirling Moss Scrapbook
1929 - 1954
When the E-type Jaguar was first unveiled in Geneva, Switzerland, in March 1961, no one expected it to be the birth of an icon, rather than merely the launch of an excellent car, but almost immediately the car zoomed into history.

E-type Jaguar DIY, Restoration & Maintenance
A Kind of Loving, Chris Rooke
One of our very own E-type Club members Chris Rooke has made it into print with with this unique, brillantly useful and very readable book.
An expert could not have written this book. Experts start with knowledge and experience, and so inevitably make assumptions and gloss over important details. Chris Rooke had played with classic cars before but had never fully restored one, and knew nothing about E-types. He learnt by trial and error, making mistakes and correcting them. With admirable courage, he does not hide his mistakes but details them for the benefit of others. This book will really help you if you want to work on your E-type or want to know more about the workings.
