Jaguar XJ-SC 1986 T-Tops and 1/2 soft top.
The rarest Production Jaguar ever. Only 5013 units made worldwide for all model years and only 2007 imported to North America for all model years.
I have been restoring this Jaguar for 3 years I have owned as many as FIVE 1980's Jags at one time and consider myself to be very knowledgeable on these cars. I am thinning the heard some as I am looking to get into a used Bentley or Rolls. OK so let's go over what has been done.
Car was just painted last week....YES LAST WEEK !!! I sold my Yacht to a gentleman that owns a body shop and worked a paint job into the deal. The car looks Great.
New EBC Brake Pads all around
New Front Drilled and Slotted Rotors
New Master Cylinder
Polyurethane Rack Bushings
Had a Wooded Steering Wheel sent from England for over $500
New CD/Stereo and 4 speakers installed (Sounds great even with the tops off) Sony
Birdseye Maple Dash inlay and ski slope and a top quality Dash cap
The seats bottoms are new and were originally a maroon color I used leatherique and had the skins dyed to factory color. The seatbacks are from Pauls Jaguar here in Fort Lauderdale and he is well known across the US for his factory original hides.
The Oil was changed less than 500 Miles ago with Castrol Syntec 20/50 for classic cars. This is about the only oil I run in these as they have added Zinc protection package for old style tappets. I bring this up to inform any novice to these cars that they hold 12 qts and at $8 a quart plus filter you have about 10,000 to go before you need to change it out.
The car has Dayton Wire Wheels and I even purchased a Dayton for the spare in the trunk.
All the gauges work fine.
The back soft top window has been replaced with new plastic and there are 2 boot covers for when the top is down.
I was told the AC needs to be recharged with R134 (so the conversion from R12 was done at sometime), but have never bothered as it is a convertible.
Dynamat sound proofing has been installed on the floors. with new factory floor mats about a year ago.
I purchased this car with the odometer reading 002004 (close to that anyway) So at sometime the Odometer has been replaced
One more time AT SOMETIME THE ODOMETER HAS BEEN REPLACED. SO I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY MILES ARE ON THIS CAR. But it runs fine and always starts right up and LOOKS FANTASTIC. maybe able to find out through a car fax.
I have never tuned up this engine so I would presume it could use one, but it runs fine.
Car should have an alignment and there is a small exhaust note coming from a mid section pipe (actually sounds good to me).
Tires are due at this point also. I just changed one rear tire with a New Pirelli P4000 about 100 miles ago.
Intermittent short on the wipers I have not looked into.
There is a lien with a balance of about $1200 that will need to be paid off so it will take a few days to clear.
Feel Free to come take her for a test drive.
I'm starting this no reserve auction at the value of the new paint job so don't miss out.
I have 100% Feedback over 10 years on ebay so bid with confidence...................

2014 Jaguar F-Type, Project 7 Concept snarl in Jay Leno's Garage
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Jay Leno gets to drive a lot of nice cars, and the Jaguar F-Type V8 S he pilots in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is no exception. Eric Johnson, vice president of Jaguar Western Region brought the car to Leno's garage, which impresses the comedian with its 5.0-liter V8 that makes 495 horsepower, 460 pound-feet of torque and a muscle car-like roar.
But there's a surprise this episode: Leno secured a drive in the Project 7 Concept at Pebble Beach this year, and the experience was caught on video. Based on the F-Type, the Project 7 is a functional concept car that nods to Jaguar's seven wins at Le Mans and features bespoke styling cues, a special exhaust system and, perhaps most importantly, 50 more horsepower from the supercharged V8.
Watch the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage in the video below. You'll need a little over 23 minutes to see the whole thing.
Jaguar builds F-Type to support Tour de France team [w/video]
Tue, 22 Jul 2014The Tour de France is typically a two-wheeled affair, dominated by cyclists yearning to capture the prestigious yellow jersey. While the 2014 event winds its way through Europe, Stage 20 will see an altogether different conveyance wind along the route between Bergerac and Périgueux - the Jaguar F-Type Coupe.
As part of its partnership with the British cyclists of Team Sky, Jag has enlisted its new Special Operations division to build a one-off F-Type Coupe, based on the 550-horsepower, supercharged R model.
SpecOps has removed the rear glass and come up with a creative solution to mount a pair of Team Sky's racing cycles in the back. Aside from that upgrade, the cabin boasts new upholstery in the colors of Team Sky's traditional livery. A separate power supply has been established below the bikes in what's left of the trunk, which provides juice for a set of radios and microphones, so that the team's director can communicate with the riders.
This mule is the first evidence Jaguar is working on a 3 Series fighter
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Rumors of an entry-level, BMW 3 Series-fighting Jaguar sedan have been floating around for quite some time, but thanks to our intrepid spy photographers, we now have visible proof that such a model is, in fact, in the works.
Despite this tester's XF fittings, it's clear that what lies beneath is an entirely different beast. The doors have been shortened, roofline adjusted, rear deck lopped off and exhaust replaced, giving us a better idea of the new sedan's smaller dimensions and details. The new Jag, which may be dubbed "XS," is expected to ride on Jaguar's PLA (Premium Lightweight Architecture) platform, touting weight-saving materials that should do a lot to keep overall heft to a minimum. Both turbocharged four- and supercharged six-cylinder powertrains are expected to be on tap.
Codenamed X760, the new small sedan will reportedly hit the market in 2015. Earlier reports have indicated that a new crossover - Jag's first ever - riding on the same platform will arrive shortly thereafter, so that suggests that the platform will be fitted with all-wheel drive as well.
