    I owned a beautiful example of an E Type in 1973 beautiful machine, but I have to hand it to you what I have just viewed is out of this world. It just shows what can be done when a real artistical engineer gets to work, the most beautiful machine on 4 wheels. Thanks

    Stunning functional artwork. I have met Chip - extremely personable, humble man, his lovely wife is same! My wife and I toured his shop some years ago and we saw Chip leaving for an appointment. I didn’t want to bum rush him and keep a distant away, he went out of his way to come over to introduce himself (as if he needed to!) and we were able to have brief, well appreciated conversation. I truly appreciate his talents, commitment to the auto industry and his generosity to others.

      The car is hideous. I own a '67 E-Type roadster and I am usually pretty open to guys modifying their cars but this thing is just gross. And Foose has the audacity to claim that he knows better than the original designers. That would be Malcom Sayer and Bill Heynes, both geniuses in their own rights who are surely spinning in their graves.

    At first i looked at this Jaguar and i didnt knew what to think, but just the attention to details, the way its all custom made, simply all the effort put into making this the dream car of its owner, its beautiful.
    You guys complaining about this "yeah the wheels are big" "standard" should get yourselves a Jag and build it the way you want it to, this belongs to his owner, its his car, if he wanted he could handle it to freaking West Coast Customs and they would put 22 inch dub wheels, scissor doors, a pep boys wing, ice cream machine to the back and a pool in the interior.
    As far as custom made cars go, this is incredible.

    I really like Chip's take on a classic that is hard to improve on. I love the concept of the wheels being a wire style billet wheel, however, I think the design would flow much better if the wheels themselves were 2" smaller in diameter and had a fatter sidewall on the tire. I love how the mirror posts were blended into the windshield frame looking like a single piece, but I think the mirrors are a bit thin for function, some classic round or even better - bullet style mirrors would have been awesome!
    My absolute favorite design elements though are the grille, lower air scoop, and the hood scoop reminiscent of a Ferrari 250

      Couldn't agree more Josh. Low profile tires are not at all suited to this Jag. But easily remedied, for about $20,000 or so.

      I think you are right on target; most of the work on this car is truly spectacular (and I am fine with the dainty mirrors!). The paint finish and the interior are beautiful. I appreciate the work that went into making a billet wire-style wheel but they are really disproportionate to the car and take away from what is an excellent rethinking of the E-Type. Smaller wheels with more sidewall would have been perfect but as they are it is disturbing. I love Chip Foose's work so I am surprised by this.

    OMG what a stunningly beautiful car. Always loved the E-Type Jag (Have an XJ6 Sport myself). One thing that I think would make this stunner even more appealing would have been to have normal sized tyres with a whitewall rather than these low profiles. Just my thoughts... Thank you for sharing this amazing vehicle... Now, I want one so bad.

    Chip, to me this car was like going to a ballet. The beauty of this E Type made me cry. Mike made a fantastic job of creating your design of those wheels, despite some who are knocking them with their comments. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Chip your design’s are from another world.

    4:40 I wish that jacket wasn't there... but in retrospect, it dawned on me it was there for a purpose. Since the car wasn't entirely finished by then, it is likely the jacket was concealing something unfinished on the console, maybe the shifter, maybe something else. But this is, certainly, one of CF's most amazing builds, and those milled wire wheels are, by all means, the work of a genius. A humble genius no less.

      If you can afford this and frequently want to drive it then you can afford taller tires.
