Leesville, South Carolina, United States

 You are bidding on my "X" 95 XJS Coupe race car. This car has not been wrecked or stripped.  To race the class, the car had to be 100% street legal, everything had to work, lights, turn signals, horn, brake lights, etc, etc.

No wires have been cut or removed.  The trans tunnel was modified to accept the LONG shifter.  The trans is a 5 sp clutchless RACE ONLY. Car has a 7 point roll bar assy. , a HALON fire system, Koni shocks on the front, Aldan special race shocks on rear, 1/2 shafts are custom  two(2) in tubular, has front and rear large sway bars, special aluminum radiator with 2 fans. Aluminum race seat, quick release steering wheel assy. Car comes with  all the original interior, which is in super condition. Also comes with a 6.0 and a 5.3 V12 engine which will need to be rebuilt.. The original factory exhaust system also comes with car. The original hood and as you can see in the pictures, the race hood.  Also the original correct ECU is there.  The tires have maybe 100 miles on them,  You also get the original wheels that came on car.

NOTE:  The car DOES NOT have an engine in it at this time.

Car also comes with a NEW TREMEC TKO 500 5 sp trans.

This car could be returned to the street with very little work, and you would own one (1) of only 51   95 V12 Coupes made for the US.

Car also comes with over 100 NOS Jag parts that I have collected. Things like new master cylinders, new clutch slave cylinders, caliper kits, etc, etc.  Lots of these NOS parts are for the "E" and the Mark sedans plus the XJ6 cars.

Lightweight E-Type to show historic side of Jaguar Special Operations in Monterey

Mon, 11 Aug 2014

Jaguar has made a lot of great vehicles over the years, but as far as historians are concerned, it still very much lives in the shadow of the original E-Type, small as it was. In its image, Jaguar has made two generations of XK and the new F-Type, but what we have here is the most faithful continuation of the E-Type heritage yet.
Alongside the Range Rover Sport SVR and the F-Type Project 7 (making its US debut), Jaguar Land Rover and its new Special Operations division will roll into Pebble Beach this year with the continuation Lightweight E-Type. Of the 72,500 E-Types which Jaguar built between 1961 and 1975, only a dozen were Lightweight versions, and they remain the most coveted E-Types of all. It originally planned on building 18 examples, though, and five decades later, it's now committed to completing that original production run in faithful detail.
The Lightweight E-Type was based on the standard roadster and was homologated as such, just with some key upgrades to make it lighter and faster. The biggest change, of course, was the lightweight aluminum bodywork that cut 205 pounds off the curb weight. To replicate it, Jaguar took the last example (the only one made in 1964 after the original eleven were made in '63), scanned half its body surface, mirrored it to ensure symmetry and set about reproducing it with the same standard of materials available in the Sixties (and resisting the urge to go with more modern grades of aluminum). 75 percent of the 230 components are made in-house, with the largest stampings outsourced and built on machinery built to Jaguar's specifications off-site.

Here's what a front-row seat looked like in 2014 Mille Miglia

Tue, 26 Aug 2014

From 1927 to 1957, the Mille Miglia was one of the great, romantic European road races of the golden era of motorsports. The cars were fast, beautiful and loud but also extremely dangerous and regularly claimed drivers' lives. After two fatal accidents in '57, the event finally had to reform and came back in 1977 as a historic rally held over the course of several days. That didn't make things boring, though, and Xcar found that out firsthand with a front-row seat to this year's race in a 2015 Jaguar F-Type R Coupe.
Xcar was actually following the Jaguar team this year that included Ian Callum and Jay Leno in an XK120, which we previously got a glimpse of when it was covered on Jay Leno's Garage. Where Leno focuses on a more personal story of competing, this one takes a more macro view. You really get an idea of how crazy the Mille Miglia still is, and while the F-Type is way too new to actually compete in the rally, it can still wear an event sticker and drive with the vintage racers.
One amazing fact about today's Mille Miglia is that if you're competing in the event, there are basically no rules. The roads are technically still open to traffic, but the police shut down intersections and provide a rolling roadblock. Xcar's F-Type alternated between following on the course with the classics and snipping off chunks of the route to watch the participants arrive at each stop. Check out the video to experience fantastic historic rally.

Dick Van Dyke escapes his flaming Jaguar on the 101

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Actor Dick Van Dyke was caught in a dangerous situation on a Los Angeles highway (who are we kidding, every situation on an LA highway is dangerous), when his Jaguar XJ spontaneously caught fire. The 87-year-old actor/comedian pulled to the side and attempted to call emergency services when another motorist pulled him from the car. There seems to be some confusion as to whether Van Dyke was passed out or merely calling emergency services.
According to the photos and video from NBC and The Today Show, the car was thoroughly cooked in the blaze and is now a total loss. After the incident, Van Dyke's wife, Arlene, posted that the actor was "fine," sharing a Vine video of the star, the car, and a few CHP troopers that were on hand. Later in the day, Van Dyke tweeted a photo of his toasted sedan, saying, "Used Jag for sale REAL CHEAP!!"
You can view the Today show segment on the incident as well as Arlene Van Dyke's Vine video, below.
