This body has now been scrapped, I know because I took the roof to repair my '64.

Still in existence - the remains of this car are currently owned by Monocoque Metalworks. Phil Cloyd sold the complete body shell and some other pieces including the original bonnet center section, etc. to me in October of 2012.

He purchased the body shell shown above in order to repair the roof of his '64 FHC as stated above, but he never completed the work - and I purchased his '64 as well. The complete body shell that you see above is currently in our shop, and we have sourced another correct 3.8 E-Type engine as well as all other necessary parts, and the project is currently awaiting restoration.
