I bought this car in 1973 when I was almost 20. I loved the car and liked the fact we were both the same age. It ran good and had a lot of power. I had to take it up to 120 mph and was surprised as it seemed to smooth out like it enjoyed it as much as I did. I never did it again.
When I bought it it was British Racing Green, Tan interior with a black top. It’s condition was good and what you would expect for a 20 year old car. The mileage seemed low at 26,000 miles but I don’t think these cars were ever the daily driver.
Between getting married, raising a family, and starting a business I didn’t have much time to drive it. I always thought that it would look great with Black paint, Top, and interior... so I had it all done in 1991. At the same time I had the motor pulled out and everything done mechanically as needed including suspension, brakes, electrical wiring harness, and new stainless steel exhaust and wheels. This is when I found out even though it was the correct C Type engine, the numbers didn’t match. I didn’t know about numbers when I bought the car and with the low mileage thought it was all original. I have no Idea why the original was replaced. All I know is this was the fastest production car in the world at its time and looks like it. I love this beautiful car and love driving it. I only wish I drove it more.
My plan was to keep this car forever but my new home is on an Island in Belize , no cars.
