Legal RestrictionsBack to the Books/Reference Page Title: Jaguar E-Type: A Collector's Guide ZZSKI3 20.80 Author: Paul Skilleter Publisher: Motor Racing Pub. LTD, London, 1986 ISBN: 0900549467 Format: Wide, hardcover, color, 128 pages, about 160 B&W photos First published 1979. Collectors guide to all types of E's. Background, design history, tech specs, competition history (with a chapter dedicated to the lightweight E-Types, all 12 of them), buying tips, etc. Skilleter uses a concise, spare, well-organized chronology rather than a narrative of personal recollections. He makes a good effort to document the important changes to the production line without getting into minutiae. Skilleter's book is a nice, Reader's Digest version of the exhaustive Porter tome and a great introduction into the differences of the models. Eric Scott A small book, with LOTS of information, photos, and a reasonable price. Still one of my favorites (and I have a lot of E-Type books). Paul Matchlock Good appendicies, such as production line change dates by model number. Though it's one of the smallest, his is the book I reach for first whenever a question comes up about "What year did Jaguar...." (Picked up my first edition for $15 shopping with Sandy in Pittsburgh's Station in 1981.) GJ |
