Condition..I would say the car is in pretty good shape. A. brakes are good, no pulling or fading, B. suspension..car has new gas shocks all around, rear shocks are installed with the tube shock conversion kit.. car has addco front 7/8" and addco rear 3/4" sway bars. front suspension was rebuilt about 6yrs ago.. very solid.. The car has been driven sparingly in the last 5 yrs do to my health problem, good old arthritus in my back.. it hurts getting in and out of .. The brakes and clutch work good but could use being bled..do to inactivity..there is a slight squeek in the clutch when depressed. I have done all the maintenance on the car the entire time I have owner it.. It has had castrol 20w50 and new filter every 3,000 miles.. As far as the body, the car does have a 76 front bumper and valance. I had a accident and hit a guard rail, (gravel in the corner) went sideways.. new hood, bumper, valance.. car is straight and tracks straight, one gap in drivers side fender is a little wider than normal.

Features..I have added a j-type overdrive, It does need a new switch(three prong single throw) I accidentally broke it, overdrive works fine.. Original numbers matching tranny included in sale.. The stereo is a sony cd with ditachable face, and electric disappearing antennae. It has 4 channels w/45w per channel. 2 boston accoustics 3way 6x9 in boxes  behind the seat and 2 infinity 2ways in the doors. As far as electrical, the brake lights, headlights, turnsignals and dash lights all work. It has 2 hella driving lights, only one works, probably a ground or a bad relay.

I purchased the car originally up in Illinois and the car spent approximately 6yrs there before moving to Texas.. there was a lil rust repair by the rear turn signals on the left side when it was painted in the mid 80s. The paint is pretty good for being a older paint job...

The engine...the engine was rebuilt in the mid 80s before painting when I was taking care of my folks up in Illinois. It has new rings, bearings, triple valve springs, a 3angle valve job, a auxiliary oil line going to the head for better oiling, a spin on filter adaptor.. I slightly spunkier cam from kent cams..Original cam comes with sale..in new cam box.. It has a real dual exhaust header, 3 into one and 3 into one, with 2 collectors.. It sounds wonderful. carburation is by 2 hs6., I made a heat shield for the carbs and wrapped the header and starter to aid in keeping everythng cool..

The whole interior was done by me, I am a wood worker and the wood is solid black wanut. the steering wheel is a le carra. and all the gauges but the tach and speedo are autometer, the car also has a autometer oil temp gauge..

Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer and a $500 deposit will be required immediately after the auction. Payment must be in cash.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
