Glasurit is providing the paint finish for a UK company that is remanufacturing E Type Jaguars. Recognised by many as the most beautiful sports car ever designed, delivering a perfect paint finish to a restored model is vitally important and Eagle E-Types work closely with paint maker Glasurit to make sure this happens.

Owned by Henry Pearman, Eagle has been dedicated to the E-Type Jaguar since 1982, with the Sussex based company specialising in bespoke 'remanufacture level' restoration and engineering of these iconic cars. Eagle has a 16 strong team of dedicated and experienced craftsmen from engineers to skilled body men and designers. The site includes a fully fitted, modern bodyshop using high performance Glasurit 90 Line and 68 Line materials.

The Glasurit Classic Car Colors programme has enabled Eagle E-Types to accurately match those colours that have themselves become classics since being offered as original colours on the E-Type Jaguars of the sixties and seventies. These include Carmen Red, Primrose, Cotswold Blue and Opalescent Dark Green. These colours can be perfectly matched in Glasurit 68 Line solid colour or 90 Line waterborne basecoat and clear options. Special order and special effects finishes are also available should the customer want something a little different for their pride and joy.

Every Eagle E-Type is the result of at least 4,000 man hours to build, while the Eagle Speedster requires 7,000 man hours to build. Each model is delivered with 500 miles on the clock, proving that the car has been thoroughly tested in genuine road conditions. The emphasis is very much on quality in every aspect or the car and this is reflected in a price tag of some €500,000 for the Eagle E-Type.
