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.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

2016 Jaguar XF mule spied in Germany

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

From our best guess, the Jaguar test mule shown in these spy shots could very well be our first glimpse at the next-generation Jaguar XF, due out around the 2016 model year. The current XF has been around for five years already (launched in 2008), and this mule is likely testing powertrain or chassis components for a new version of the midsize Jaguar sedan.
With what seems to be a stretched wheelbase and wider track, this is almost certainly not a mule for the 3 Series-fighting Jaguar XS. That being said, though, there is also the outside chance that this could be a mule for other future Jaguar Land Rover products including a production version of the Jaguar C-X17 crossover or the Jaguar-based Range Rover Grand Evoque. Only time will tell what these images truly foretell, but if nothing else, it proves that Jaguar is definitely staying busy these days.
