PREFACE:

This car is truly for someone who is a JAGUAR Enthusiast and wants to either RESTORE a CLASSIC or just Part Out.

The car is truly a classic that will require a lot of work for restoration - With the right dedication, this car can be gorgeous. car actually turned over and ran last in 2012.  I drove it from SC to KY in 2008 and started it regularly until deployed to AFG - 2009.  

I purchased this car to one day completely Restore it - Well, based on current deployment and other obligations, I no longer have the time.

CAR FACTS:

Body:  Body is straight, never an accident.  Rust spots in several places, though all fixable.  Chrome is really excellent - probably the best thing about it.  Door locks need serious greasing.  Floorboard is in very good condition. 

Seats:  Front and rear seats are in good condition, though, the leather stain shows tremendous wear.  Rear seat has a small cigarette hole on left side.  

Trunk:  Very Clean.

Engine:  It turned over 2012 and was OK.  The car ran good, with transmission responding as normal.  The engine will not turn over now most likely due to a frozen starter. However, I really do not know.  Please note - This purchase falls under the "AS IS" policy. 

Dash Electronics:  I took out the dash and simply put it back in loosely, many connections still need to be made again.  I did this to replace the dash and fix the vacuum to the heating and  air-condition.  Air Condition is not connected.

The reason so much was taken out of the car was because I intended to completely restore the vehicle.  I have many new parts for the car, cannot mention all.  Also have custom mixed leather dye for the seats as well. 

Tires are Good - 1 front right tire has small leak - repairable.
Chrome Rims are Great, with two missing the Jaguar emblem and end cap.  Purchased those separately.

ALL EXTRA PARTS PURCHASED WITH CAR ARE YOURS

Good Bidding to All!

Ford decides C-Max shoppers not interested in fuel economy

Sat, Oct 25 2014

If you say a car – the Ford C-Max Hybrid, for example – is "fun to drive," can anyone really come up with some empirical evidence against your claim? What about calling it "versatile"? We wonder if Ford has been thinking along these lines when it talks about the green little hatch. Ford is refocusing its sales strategy for the C-Max Hybrid after the model took a sales hit on both sides of the Atlantic recently, Automotive News reports. That sales dropoff may stem from the fact that Ford has had to revise its fuel-economy figures downward for the C-Max twice since last year, most recently in June. That made the company's once-proud fuel-economy comparisons with the Toyota Prius kind of pointless. Ford is going a different route, calling the model versatile (which, to be fair it was also doing a year ago), technologically advanced and fun to drive. Since the C-Max has about 50 more horsepower than the Prius, that last part may be true. Ford representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen about the mpg-mention-free advertising direction, but we will update this post if we hear back. Sales of the C-Max Hybrid have suffered in the US. Through September, Ford sold 15,245 C-Max Hybrids, down 36 percent from last year. We shall see if a new focus away from the car's lowered mpg numbers helps. At least Ford can be pleased with sales of the C-Max Energi Plug-in Hybrid, which are up 51 percent compared to 2013.

Woman trades 1914 Model T in for 2013 Corvette

Wed, 17 Apr 2013

We're sure that dealers must see all sorts of interesting trade ins, but this one may take the cake. Red River Chevrolet in Bossier City, Louisiana, recently had a customer come in with an odd request. Tina Boyter wanted to trade in three vehicles on a brand-new 2013 Chevy Corvette. Among the hardware was 1980 Corvette, a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and a 1914 Ford Model T. While the '80 Corvette had been her personal car for years, the '78 Eldorado had belonged to Boyter's mother before she traded up to a Lincoln. The big Caddy had just 10,290 miles on the clock when it was traded in.
And the Model T? Boyter says the car was built as a racer by Ford, and that it had been a show winner for years when it belonged to her father. But, after spending the last 16 years in a museum with its fluids drained, Boyter decided it was time to shed some of the past. She walked into the dealer, laid eyes on a white 2LT Corvette with a red interior and offered to trade all three of the vehicles in on the sports car.
Why not wait for the C7? "I fell in love with that one when I walked in the door," She said. We can't fault her there.

Is that the Ford GT Le Mans racer in the background of this Forza video?

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Shortly after the reveal of the new Ford GT in Detroit a couple of weeks ago, Microsoft announced that it was putting the new American supercar on the cover of the upcoming sixth installment of the Forza Motorsport video game series. Now it has put out a video of the process of digitizing Dearborn's latest. Whether you're into Detroit steel (or carbon fiber and aluminum in this case), exotic supercars or video games, the video is worth a watch in and of itself. But our eyes were focused on something else. In the background of one shot (around the 1:49 mark) you can see a design board with renderings of what looks to be the rumored racing version of the GT – complete with reshaped air intakes, deeper side sills, a bigger rear wing and a central rear fin like you'd find on the latest LMP1 racing prototypes. It wouldn't be the first time we've caught wind of the prospect of the Blue Oval's new supercar going racing. We first heard of the plans last October, further reinforced in December with reports of the new GT coming to Detroit. And as we reported just a couple of weeks ago following the supercar's reveal, a return to Le Mans could be in the cards – which would be fortuitous timing, since next year will mark the 50th anniversary of the original GT40 scoring its landmark 1-2-3 finish in the 24-hour race.
