Help me identify this car, please

[Ripplin]

Here's a picture from an old calendar, which I basically use as wallpaper once the year is up:

My foggy memory says it's a 1969 Boss Jaguar, though I could be off on that. I tried for a while to find info on it through Google, but no dice.

Anyone know more about this crazy thing?

Some show car...looks TVR-ish.

Actually it looks like someone took a E-Type Jaguar through a severe Overhaulin'

Ah yes, the radiator opening is obviously Jag.

agreed - on both points

one way to ruin an e-type, I hope it never sees the light of day

You mean you like something else about that car? :lol:

The thing is, we know it was an E-Type once upon a time, but I have no idea if it's a modern custom or not (the calendar it was in was from a few years ago, but that's nothing to go on, either). I think about George Barris' stuff from the 60's and how crazy it was, so it wouldn't surprise me if it's that old, even if it's not. Hmm...

It IS and E-Type, and I think you were right about it being a Boss Jag. I had the same calendar too and I remember That name...

Found some stuff on this car.
It's a 67 e-type modified by Luciano Sarra.
A Boss 429 sits under the hood.
It was in a variety of car shows in 2000.
