1970 Jaguar Xj, New Paint, No Rust, Chevy 350/400 on 2040-cars
Woodland Hills, California, United States
1970 Jaguar XJ has been fully gone through and can be driven
anywhere! This is a classy car with all the amenities and comfort of a newer
car and turns heads everywhere it goes. The car drives straight, rides smooth
and begs to be driven on the highway. Body: Body is in very nice shape and rust free. It has been
repainted in the original signal red color code. All the panels line up and gaps are even. The
rear windshield seal has been replaced and the new front windshield seal is included with
the sale of the car (not installed). It doesn’t leak but should be replaced in
the near future. All the chrome and trim is in very nice condition. Brakes: All of the brakes have been rebuilt and/or replaced.
Extensive amount of work has gone into this car. The power brake booster was
rebuilt, a new master cylinder was installed as well as all four brake calipers
were rebuilt within the last year. New rotors and pads all the way around as
well as new front and rear brake hoses. Drivetrain: The car sports a healthy Chevy 350 cu in. mated
to a Turbo 400 automatic transmission. New Holley 390cfm carburetor. Very
reliable, easy to maintain and plenty of power. The speedometer cable is not
hooked up but I believe there are adapter kits to go from the Jaguar speedo to
the Chevy transmission. The drive shaft and half shafts all have new u-joints. This car sounds great and turns heads! Suspension: The suspension is solid and doesn’t squeak or
make any unusual noises. Several bushings have been replaced recently. Interior: The interior is presentable but could use some
attention. I had started to reupholster the upper headliner surround pieces in
black and they look really nice but never got around to the rest of the
interior. The driver seat is still very comfortable but the bottom straps for
the passenger seat are worn and it sags in the middle. All of the power windows
operate. All of the dash instrumentation panel lights work. Things to note: Since we bought this car the fuel tank on
the left side (driver) had not been in use for an unknown amount of time. The
car only uses the fuel tank on the right side. Condition of heater and AC are
unknown. I have never fiddled with the heater to see if it works. The car seems
to have a complete AC as well but I don’t think it works. The car has a CD player and nice speakers all the way around but I believe the fuse in the CD head unit is blown. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me and I will get back to you as soon as possible. |

Jaguar Land Rover may build factory in Saudi Arabia
Tue, 11 Dec 2012The Middle East is one of the fastest-growing markets for Land Rover, so it makes sense that the automaker is looking to set up shop in the region. According to Automotive News, Jaguar Land Rover is in talks with the people of Saudi Arabia to build a factory in the country at an expected initial cost of $1.2 billion. Still in the early stage of talks, the proposed facility could start up by 2017 using locally sourced materials such as steel and aluminum.
Such an arrangement could be beneficial for both entities as Saudi Arabia looks to diversify its oil-reliant economy and Land Rover could get local production capacity of around 50,000 units. The report also says that the agreement talks about the possibility for Jaguar models to be built at the same plant further down the road.
This won't be the first vehicle produced in Saudi Arabia - that honor goes to the KSU Gazal-1 - but it will be the first from a major global automaker.
Jaguar hints at what might become of XK after F-Type's arrival
Wed, 02 Jan 2013Jaguar may move the company's XK further upmarket following the introduction of its forthcoming F-Type. The newcomer to the range easily shoulders the burden of carrying the Jaguar sportscar mantle, freeing up the XK to evolve in another direction. While speaking with Autocar, Jaguar Design Director Ian Callum said there's an opportunity to grow the grand tourer both in size and luxury.
Whether that means the vehicle will retain its two-plus-two seating configuration or swell to offer buyers even more space remains to be seen. Either way, the future will likely see the XK soften its claws moving forward. And that's no bad thing. Jaguar has a long history of building luxurious grand tourers more content to soak up miles of highway than bounce from apex to apex.
What else is in store for the brand? Callum seems to have kept his cards close to his chest, refusing to acknowledge ongoing rumors of a Jaguar crossover beyond saying the brand "had to take notice" of the popularity of the luxury SUV market.
Jaguar F-Type gets even more British with Design Edition
Wed, Jan 6 2016Short of maybe driving a Morgan while wearing tweed and smoking a pipe, automobiles don't come much more quintessentially British than a Jaguar. But now the F-Type is going to be even more so with the launch of the new British Design Edition. It's based on the six-cylinder F-Type S, but upgrades with a series of special touches to set it apart. Red, white, and blue are the dominant colors from which buyers will be able to choose both the exterior color and that of the interior contrast stitching. The leather interior comes in black, and those less patriotically inclined can spec the outside to match. The British Design Edition also features 20-inch wheels in dark gray satin finish, packing upgraded brakes with red calipers. The Design package comes standard with upgraded aero, as does the 12-speaker Meridian sound system. And naturally there are special insignia inside and out. Buyers will be able to choose between coupe or convertible and rear- or all-wheel drive, but either way motivation comes in the form of JLR's 3.0-liter supercharged V6, driving 380 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Only 300 units will be coming to the United States, with prices starting at $92,100 (plus a $995 destination charge) – representing a substantial $14.8k premium over the $77,300 price of entry for an F-Type S Coupe. Spec one out with similar options and you'd be looking at $86,250, which makes the privilege (and resale value) of acquiring the limited edition a $5,850 proposition. Any way you cut it, though, the elbow patches cost extra.
