This is a 1968 Jaguar Coupe Series 1 1/2  (Not a 2+2) in dire need of restoration. It belongs to my neighbor who is now in a nursing home. He has asked me to sell the car for him. It has been stored in his barn for the last 23 years having last been on the road in 1991. He started to restore it about 8 years ago and gave up. I don't know very much about the car but I pushed it down to my house and have been tinkering around with it. It appears that all the chrome is there and in pretty good shape. Interior is good, not show but good. Seats show some wear with a couple of small holes but in good condition. Fuel pump is broken but with the help of a friend spraying starting fluid had the motor running for 20 or 30 seconds. 

Glass is all good except windshield has a couple of stone chips. Rust around rear wheel wells and door sills. Floor pans patched.

The only thing I can see missing is the A/C condenser and half of one of the bonnet hinges.

Interior has a bad odor. Mouse urine?

Hopefully the pictures tell it all.


On May-17-13 at 19:35:10 PDT, seller added the following information:

I'm working on the bad odor. It's much better than when I first brought the car to my house. Windows down and trying to air it out.

Have both door panels and trim which are in good condition.

Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine

Sat, 08 Feb 2014

European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
Scroll down to see how it all plays out on video.

Jaguar F-Pace SVR to debut this week at New York Auto Show

Mon, Mar 26 2018

It should come as no surprise that the folks back in England have been working on a hot new version of the Jaguar F-Pace. Today, just ahead of the 2018 New York International Auto Show, the British automaker confirmed that the Jaguar F-Pace SVR will debut this week. The new Jaguar I-Pace and Range Rover SV Coupe will make their North American debuts alongside the F-Pace. All we know about the F-Pace SVR is that it will be the fastest and most powerful version of Jaguar's best-selling product. We don't even have a teaser photo, as Jaguar Land Rover loves to play things close to the vest, so we're sharing some spy photos that we think might be the new model. Expect some version of JLR's 5.0-liter supercharged V8. We're hoping it's the 575 horsepower variant from the refreshed Range Rover Sport SVR. Expect 0-60 mph times in the low-4-second range and a top speed of at least 155 mph. The I-Pace and Range Rover SV Coupe both debuted earlier this month at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. The I-Pace is an all-electric crossover with an estimated 240 miles of range. The SV Coupe is a limited-production two-door variant of the full-size Range Rover. It's meant to be a throwback to the original two-door Range Rover Classic. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
