Jaguar XJ6


You are bidding on one of the most unique Jaguars that you will ever come across.  This Jaguar XJ6 is a well maintained coupe.  It was completed in 1993 from a body off bare shell restoration. From there it has been driven about 2835 miles.  During the restoration there were no short cuts taken with the rusty metal cut outs and replaced with full sheet metal.  All surfaces were prepared using Dupont Corlar Zinc Rich epoxy primer, topped with Dupont 99 Black acrylic lacquer.  Body panels are die-straight and panel fit is much better than factory. The interior is the original leather, re-dyed with the original Leatherique in the original russet color.  The door panels and carpets are all new as well as the rubber seats throughout.  The vinyl top is an original NOS item.  All the chrome was new or re-plated. The European spec SII XJ bumpers and lighting really unclutter the exterior.  The driver can feel the difference in the handling over a North American spec car with the extra weight of the crash bumpers at the extremeties that are now absent.  Mechanically, literally everything was gone through.  Suspension assembles were completely restored and even the brake calipers were disassembled, zinc- dichromate plated, and reassembled with new kits and pistons.  All the brake lines are stainless steel.  The engine is a S1 E-type spec 4.2 with 8:1 compression, triple HD8's, Si E-type camshafts and vacuum advance distributor, having standard bore, new rings and bearings, and a 1970 E-type cylinder head.  The transmission is a John's Cars GM TH350 Quarterbreed kit.  Trans was rebuilt including a Transgo shift kit-very crisp.  Exhaust is a Falcon Stainless Steel setup.  Cylinder head casting number is FY836, located at the rear of the valley after the last plug hole.  Engine number is 8L18533-i, and is original to the car.  Body number is 5J1381, and vin is UF2J50247BW. The carburetor has been recently gone through with new floats, needle/seat assemblies, jet diaphragms and a setup. Fuel pumps were replaced about 7 years back with new Burlen Fuel System unts.  It has a well maintained interstate battery in it.  The only thing that is not absolutely 100% is the air conditioning, which still has the oringinaal R12, and blows cold but weak.  But who needs air conditioning when you take this flawless car out for a cruise with the windows down.

This car is available to view and inspect in Paradise Valley, Arizona.  The car is "sold as is" no warranty's are implied.  There is a $2,000 non-refundable deposit which must be paid at end of auction. The buyer assumes all responsibility for shipping and destination charges. Full payment must be received before the car is released. If there are any questions about the car please fill free to send an email.

Jaguar SUV mule doing Ring testing in Evoque clothes

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Jaguar has moved its Range Rover Evoque-bodied tests of the production C-X17 Concept from icy streets to the legendary Nürburgring, as work continues on the brand's first SUV.
Really, there's not a great deal of new stuff here. Based on the number plates, this is a different vehicle from the one we saw back in March, which we originally identified as the upcoming replacement for the Land Rover Freelander/LR2. The details, though, appear largely the same. The biggest distinction we can see between the March tests and this are the US-spec headlights, which add amber reflectors at their sides. Based on these shots, it does seem as if the C-X17 should be a fairly poised road vehicle, as the engineers hustle it around the 'Ring.
Of course, as soon our spies can capture images of a production-bodied C-X17, we'll be sure to pass those on to you. Until then, take a look up top for images of the Range Rover-bodied Jaguar as it tests at Germany's Nürburgring. You can also scroll down for our March images for the C-X17 mules testing on public roads.

Jaguar's first-ever Super Bowl ad to feature F-Type Coupe

Sun, 10 Nov 2013

Patrons of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show will be able to get their first glimpse at the new Jaguar F-Type Coupe, but the new hardtop sports car will be shown off to an even greater audience in early February. No, we aren't talking about the Chicago Auto Show - we're referring to the Super Bowl. Jaguar will debut its first-ever Super Bowl ad during the second half of the big game on February 2, 2014, and the sleek new F-Type Coupe will be the star.
According to Jaguar, the ad campaign will pose the question, "Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?" And for all you social media mavens out there, Jaguar will launch a specific hashtag to go with this marketing: #GoodToBeBad.
British director Tom Hooper is responsible for the ad, which is being filmed in London. Americans will get their first glimpse at the campaign this weekend in the first spot, called Disruptor, but the big F-Type Coupe spot will not air until Super Bowl XLVIII in February.

Jaguar XE teased in new video, will debut September 8

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Outside of a major auto show, this might be one of the best times of the year for new car debuts, and we couldn't be more excited. Just this week, the low-slung face of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata showed itself to the world, and Land Rover debuted its new Discovery Sport. Plus, there's a double-whammy of launches on the imminent horizon with the unveilings of the Jaguar XE on September 8 and the Mercedes-AMG GT on September 9.
Jag is teasing the launch of its latest midsize luxury sedan with a few glimpses on video. It's strangely secretive, given the fact that Jaguar showed the XE's face completely un-camouflaged a few weeks ago. Regardless, it's quite a looker up front with a sleeker take on the shape of the larger XF.
Because of the way Jaguar is slowly leaking details about the XE, there are a few other things we already know about this new cat, too. It rides on a monocoque chassis made from over 75 percent aluminum, and the automaker is promising 75 miles per gallon fuel economy on the more lenient European cycle for at least one engine in the lineup.
