Up for sale is a 1982 jaguar xjs that was converted from a v 12 to a ford v 8, it currently has a 1993 ford 351 Windsor engine in it with a ford AOD transmission it has a ford wiring harness and ecu, ford steering column, ford gauges ford gas tank and probably a few other ford things I cant think of. This car does run and drive and stop, before I got it, it had been sitting in a dry garage for 5 years but started right up it needs some minor tinkering to make it perfect, the intake is something the previous owner made and it has a crack in it so it is getting a bit to much air when it runs, it would be best to either change it over to a carbureted setup or find a factory intake that fit, it also could use spark plugs just has a miss when it is running, exhaust sounds very nice, deep and not very loud, I have not dove it really any distance, around 30 miles at the most but transmission shifts fine, it stops good don't get hot the gauges work the ford speedometer says it has 220,000 miles but it don't, the engine and transmission don't either just the speedo was used out of a higher mileage truck, the engine don't have no odd ticks clicks knocks, nothing sounds out of the ordinary and with some new plugs it should run great. The gas tank and battery setup is not exactly the best in my eyes but could be changed, they are both located in the trunk, the gas tank don't leak as far as I can tell but when you open the trunk you can at times smell some gas fumes, I have had the tank all the way full and couldn't find a leak anywhere it might not be vented properly would be my only guess. the interior is in fair shape for its age needs some cleaning and some stitches need to be redone in the drivers seat but its not all tore up or beat up, the dash has some small cracks in it and could use a plate or something to cover where some of the original jag gauges were and could be made to look pretty nice with a little work, the windshield wipers work the electric windows work, and it has a sunroof, the body is in really nice shape it looks very clean underneath and only has a few small bubbles of rust starting on the rear quarters as shown in the pics, it has a older paintjob on it which don't look to bad but should possibly be redone in the future, one tail light lens has a crack, all windows are good no cracks or broken ones , if I forgot to mention something just ask me a question and I will be glad to give you an answer. vin number is actually jnv5840cc107758 |

2013 Jaguar XJ AWD
Tue, 18 Dec 2012Even though this year's winter has gotten off to an abnormally slow start for most of North America, Jaguar has shown the world it means business by launching its all-new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system in Montreal, Canada. Designed primarily for consumers in the Northern US and Canada, Jaguar put us on the same snowy, slushy and icy roads that many of its buyers will have to deal with. Rather than making declawed versions of the XJ and XF, Jag says this system enhances the performance abilities of its sedans when desired while still making them as fun to drive as their rear-wheel-drive counterparts. We had a chance to test out both the XF AWD and XJ AWD, but we spent most of our time behind the wheel of the flagship XJ, driving it on the open roads as well as a few closed courses.
Considering the lengthy and convoluted history of the Jaguar brand - including a stint as a member of Ford's defunct Premier Automotive Group alongside Volvo and Aston Martin - it is rather surprising that the automaker is just now getting around to introducing an all-wheel-drive system intended for widespread use, but the new Instinctive AWD will finally allow the XF, XJ and other future products to better compete against the likes of Mercedes-Benz 4Matic, BMW xDrive and Audi Quattro. In the XJ, Jaguar expects the AWD models to account for around 40 percent of the product mix nationwide and a little bit more (50 percent) for the XF, but in the northern states, it expects around 80 percent of XF sales to be AWD variants.
Instinctive AWD is rear-biased and operates as full rear-wheel drive in good weather, but when the road conditions turn slick, the system can split engine power 50:50 between front and rear axles using a center transfer case.
Seven-figure cars highlight day one of RM's Monterey auction
Sat, 17 Aug 2013RM Auctions is one of several houses holding auctions during the Monterey weekend, and Friday night's festivities got quite pricey. Seven-figure vehicles were not at all uncommon during the first day of the two-day event, with the 1953 Ferrari 375 MM Spider, seen above, crossing the block for $9,075,000.
Other big earners included a pair of rare Ferraris, a 1950 166 MM Barchetta and a 1955 750 Monza Spider, which took $3,080,000 and $4,070,000, respectively. Outside of the red Italians, a 1939 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special captured $7,480,000 while a stunning, color-appropriate 1955 Jaguar D-Type took $3,850,000. We've got images of these vehicles, and a few other stunning examples of last night's auction, in the gallery above.
Thought it seems impossible, tonight's auction is expected to see even more high-dollar action. The winner of the 2012 Pebble Beach Concours, a 1928 Mercedes-Benz 680S Torpedo Roadster is expected to command over $10 million. Also crossing the block will be a car we reported on a few weeks back - a supremely rare 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder. One of only 10 in the world, it's expected to take anywhere from $14 to $17 million when it hits the stage tonight.
