1976 Jaguar XJ6C. This was a Southern California car and the body is in great shape. Exterior is light green metallic and the interior is black. Vehicle will need a re-paint but that should not be too difficult, as the body is really nice with just one tiny dot of rust on the drivers door (the size of a dime). Seats, headliner and carpet are in great shape. The dash will need refinishing. The engine turns but does not start. I replaced the battery but I am not much of a mechanic so I have not been able to get it started. This would be a great car for someone with a little more knowledge.

Answers to some of the questions I have received:

I bought this car earlier this year and had it shipped from CA to TX. I was being nostalgic and thought I would work on it just like I worked on my Triumph in High School 25 years ago. Then I realized I had a wife, 3 young kids, 2 horses and a traveling job. Reality set in and I will never be able to get the time to work on it.

The guy I bought it from said it was running and driving as recently as 2 years ago. He tried to tune the carbs and got them all out of adjustment. Whether that's true or not, I don't know. What I do know id that the motor turns and is not seized (good news!). As you can see from the pics, the interior looks really good and there is no rust in the rear tire well (common place for rust on these). The windows and electrical work, albeit very slowly. Lights turn on and turn signals blink. The carpet and headliner look fairly new. The vinyl top looks good for its age, but it appears to be original.

The car comes with 4 spokes and the steel spare.

CMC to produce limited run of Callum's Jaguar Mark 2 [w/video]

Thu, 04 Sep 2014

We were a more than a little jealous when designer Ian Callum revealed his Jaguar Mark 2 restomod that he commissioned from Classic Motor Cars. It turns out that we weren't the only ones that dug it - the reaction was so great that CMC got Callum's permission to create a limited run of them for customers. Although, with prices quoted between £350,000 and £375,000 ($572,000 - $613,000), we doubt Ian needs to worry about seeing a copy of his creation pass him too soon.
"Within hours we had received calls from people all over the globe asking if they could buy one," said Peter Neumark, Chairman of CMC in the latest announcement. The reaction came as a surprise to Callum, who said he designed the car entirely to his own specifications and actually wasn't sure if people would like it.
Among Callum's many changes are new bumpers, wider front fenders with functional louvers and less chrome trim. Under the hood is a 4.3-liter six-cylinder fitted with two SU carbs putting out around 260 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. It should be a much better driver too, with a completely re-engineered independent rear suspension, adjustable dampers at all four corners, improved brakes and a new rack and pinion steering system designed by CMC with electric assist.

Jaguar recalling XK Convertible and XF 2.0T sedan for unrelated issues

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

Jaguar has announced that it will be recalling 1,989 XK Convertibles produced between October 1, 2010 and August 1, 2013. Model years ranging from 2011 to 2014 are part of the recall.
The issue has to do with one of the switches the switch that controls the opening and closing of the convertible top. The switch also has to do with the operation of the power windows. According to the Feds, the switch doesn't move down to close the power windows, meaning that the window could accidentally close on the finger or arm of an inattentive person.
In related news, Jaguar is also recalling 940 2013 XF sedans powered by the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine for a hose that can detach underhood, which could cause the engine to stall or could leave the driver without power steering or brakes.

Jaguar testing facelifted XJ in UK

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

Europe's flagship luxury sedans don't go through their lifecycles quite as quickly as other models need to, but with the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class hitting the road, Jaguar must feel it's time for a little update for its XJ sedan. And as these spy shots demonstrate, that's just what it has in store.
Falling firmly in the subtle-facelift category (as opposed to the full refresh), the placement of the camouflage on this new XJ appears to be hiding new fascias front and rear. Reshaped bumpers, trunk lid, grille and air apertures seem to be part of the impending facelift, but for better or worse, those black rear pillars seem to be staying put.
While Jaguar's at it, we can expect some updates to the cabin as well, with upgraded infotainment, ambient lighting and such. But don't go expecting anything radical at this stage. The XJ has been on the market for about four years, and it'll be another few before it demands a complete overhaul.
