Here is one to horrify the purists and make your mechanic smile. This jag had been with its previous owner 30 years with no engine trouble. I have had a ball cruising this car! You get lots of smiles and compliments and it never feels pretentious or ostentatious. This car is not rusty. There is a box of parts that came loose at one time or another. The brakes will need immediate attention as the right rear squeals like a scalded dog. The speedo is not working and there is no power steering. So no wimps. If you are not scared off yet you could be in for a great ride! This classy cat is for the ladies. They absolutely fall for his charms, even my neighbors agree, this is a beauty. There is no headliner, you are the headliner! The suspension is soft and needs love. The guy I got it from took pride in just changing the oil and replacing belts and tune up stuff. This has been a low maintenance jag! Wow can you say those 2 words together? Gas gauge, temp gauge, oil pressure gauge working. Tape deck plays the radio, have not tried a tape. Headlights, brake lights & taillights working. Motor is solid and does not vibrate, it was a good transplant. I have tried to picture the mounts and brackets as I was very curious about the install. If it was rickety I would not have got it. My first ride was 30 miles in 100 degree heat in Reno and it climbed 1000 feet to the cabin like a champ. I think a twin carb set up would wake this cat up. It needs a new captain willing to make some improvements and refinements. If you have questions please feel free to ask and there is video of a freeway run. Just today we took mom to the kite festival in the jag, she loved it. Shipping is never a problem. As is,no refunds, no zero feedback guys. Set up an inspection or come by! Harris

Jaguar has something special planned for Goodwood
Mon, 23 Jun 2014It's been barely a week since JLR announced its new Special Operations division, dedicated to creating limited-run halo cars and custom creations for both the Jaguar and Land Rover brands. Now the British automaker has confirmed the debut of the division's first project.
We don't know what it is, exactly, that Jaguar will be bringing to the Goodwood Festival of Speed later this week, but we bet it'll be exciting. If we were the betting kind, we'd put our money on some kind of hot-rod F-Type, but we'll just have to wait and see.
Alongside whatever JLR Special Operations has got cooking, Coventry will also be bringing the new F-Type R Coupe and XFR-S Sportbrake to run up the hill alongside a whole slew of classic and racing Jaguars, including a pair of D-Types, a Group 44 E-Type, a Group A XJS and the reunion of XJR-9 and Andy Wallace that last saw each other on the top step of the podium at Le Mans in 1988.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
First Ride: 2014 Jaguar F-Type [w/video]
Fri, 08 Feb 2013Shotgun In Coventry's First Sports Car In Decades
For every car, there is a passionate group of fans who love it, and the F-Type already has a few million rabid followers. These are fabulous things, sports cars, and we're very happy that Jaguar is making one again. Finally. (Before you start relishing the prospect of correcting us, the XK is really a grand tourer, not a sports car.)
The main question, however, will be whether someone in a position to buy a lifestyle-enhancing yet impractical F-Type will do so in the face of more established competitors from Porsche, Aston Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW. The last time Jaguar built a true two-seater sports car (1974 E-Type; the last of the XJ220 limited run in 1994 doesn't count in this league), most of today's new buyers were too young or may not yet have been born. At any rate, the F-Type has a lot of work to do for the brand beyond just selling itself.
