I Excellent example of the Mark IV. The pictures tell the story. Older paint job, with a few baubles here and
there but an overall nice appearance. Runs great, fires up on first push of starter button after applying some
spark advance. Holds 40 pounds oil pressure on idle. Everything works, lights, horn and gauges. Even the side
semaphore flippers (trafficators) pop out when the turn signal is turned on. Very impressive. I believe the
headlight lenses are from a Rolls Royce, but I have the two cracked originals. The Windshield cranks out okay, but
the seal is rough. Sunroof opens and closes nicely. The interior wood is original and the upholstery has been
redone. Seat frames and hardware are original. All in excellent condition. Seats are very comfortable with back
center armrest. Front seats adjustments work. Wood on doors and dash is excellent for it's age with a few cracks.
Headliner is very nice and could be the original. Windows crank up and down easily. Floors are solid, underneath
looks good. Frame shows no problems. I did have to recondition the front shock links, but the shocks (front and
rear) are in nice operating condition. The car had been stored in a Florida garage for several years and I had to
replace the fuel tank (hard to find and pricey) and clean out the lines. Also rebuilt one of the fuel pumps and
cleaned and tuned the carbs. The motor was overhauled (as evidenced by new freeze plugs) by a previous owner, but
I have no paperwork to show what was done. She runs down the road smoothly with all gears working properly and
brakes doing a good job. I have only driven this car short distances around home, so don't know how it would
perform on a long distance run. I believe one would just have to be patient. The chrome could use some attention
as it is becoming pitted and lacks original luster, but it is all there. Tool box cover has been renewed and looks
very nice. I do not have the tools. Actual mileage is unknown.

Jaguar details new Ingenium four-cylinder engines [w/video]
Mon, 29 Sep 2014When Jaguar lifted the veil on its new XE sports sedan earlier this month, it only revealed details on one engine - that being the 3.0-liter supercharged V6 in the flagship XE S. But we already knew that the British automaker's new entry-level model will offer many other powertrain options, and now it has revealed a little more.
Jaguar has been developing a new family of 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines it calls Ingenium, which will be offered in a wide array of configurations and specifications. In advance of its debut at the upcoming Paris Motor Show, the Leaping Cat marque has announced the specifications of the two diesel versions. The first will offer 161 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque and some of the best environmental credentials on the market. There will also be a more potent version with 177 hp and 317 lb-ft, which Jaguar says is "one of the highest torque outputs in the class." Either way, both versions feature variable exhaust valve timing, cooled low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation and selective catalytic reduction technologies to help meet the stringent Euro 6 standards.
That's all well and fine, but considering that Jaguar doesn't offer diesels in North America, the chances of these oil-burners making their way Stateside seem slim. But if you watch the video below, you'll also find basic specs on their gasoline counterparts as well. Like the diesels, they're turbocharged and displace 2.0 liters, but in petrol form, they offer 197 hp and 206 lb-ft of torque, or 236 hp and 250 lb-ft.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
Stolen Jaguar E-Type reunited with owner after 46 years
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Barely six months into owning it, Ivan Schneider had his Jaguar E-Type stolen from outside of his Manhattan apartment in 1968. Now, 46 years later, the somewhat beat-up convertible has been recovered just before it was about to be shipped to a new owner in The Netherlands.
US Customs agents at the Port of Los Angeles found the car during a routine check, and they contacted Schneider to arrange returning it to him. When the feds found it, the E-Type was already in a shipping container ready to go to its new owner. The condition is hardly perfect today, including rough paint and a replacement door, but Schneider is ecstatic to get his classic back.
Understandably, the now 82-year-old never thought he would see his droptop Jaguar again. Schneider told the LA Times that he bought the E-Type for $5,000 after winning a case as a lawyer, and it was originally painted gray. Now, he plans to have to have the vintage convertible restored to its former glory in New York.
