1973 Vintage Jaguar - Garage Kept on 2040-cars
Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States
|
Posting this Vintage 1973 Jaguar for my dad. As might have seen in other
craigslist posts, my dad has been selling off his collection of
vintage/classic vehicles. My dad has no room to continue in storing or
paying insurance on his vehicles therefore he is now selling off the
majority of his vehicles.
This Jaguar is road ready. Vehicle drives VERY well despite its age. The original engine was replaced with an American made 350 V8 engine. When the swap of engine took place, the gas tank was not reconnected because the tank had not been drained. The vehicle sat in garage for many years and the gas in the tank went bad so my dad decided to install a tank in the trunk to avoid using the bad gas in the original tank. Don't ask me why he did that but that is what he stated to me. The gas gauge does function and mark correctly. The interior is remarkable and well taken care of as you can see in the pictures. One modification made, which can easily be switched back to its original form, is the front door panels are not original. Instead, they were replaced with wood panels which are not original. All gauge in the instrument panel are working except the clock and oil gauge which need to be plugged in. This occurred when the engine was swapped and not reconnected before reinstalling the dash. The Jaguar has the original AM/FM radio and original speakers. The seals around the front and back windows are cracked because the seals around the windows have never been switched out. Although the car has its flaws, this car needs very little work. Please feel free to look at the vehicle. |

Jaguar 3 Series-fighter to spawn coupe, wagon
Wed, 25 Sep 2013With its sights set on the BMW 3 Series, Jaguar could be planning a full range of models for its upcoming entry-level car - possibly called the XS. We've already seen spy shots of the four-door version of this all-aluminum baby Jag, but according to Auto Express, the automaker will also offer the car in coupe and wagon variants.
The XS sedan should hit the market in 2015, and the coupe and wagon models are expected soon after that. Speaking with Jag's global brand director Adrian Hallmark, AE says that the XS will be focused on styling with a design similar to the recently introduced C-X17 crossover concept. Hallmark also said that the addition of the XS lineup could help Jaguar double its sales, which were at 357,773 global units in 2012. Head on over to Auto Express for some speculative renderings of the XS coupe and wagon.
Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant
Sat, 24 Nov 2012While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
Jaguar XKSS tipped to be next continuation model
Mon, Feb 9 2015After the Jaguar F-Type Project Seven, Range Rover Sport SVR, and run of six continuation Lightweight E-Types, the Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations (SVO) division is plotting its next historic resurrection, and there's a chance it could be the Jaguar XKSS. That's the word from SVO head John Edwards to Dutch outlet Autovisie, but we need to emphasize the word "could," because the XKSS is one of about four finalists - a "major contender" - among a long list of 65 ideas for the Special Operations to devote itself to. Edwards said that SVO projects need to have some kind of story behind them, a qualification the XKSS doesn't lack. In the 1950s Jaguar raced the D-Type to three Le Mans wins among its list of victories, but retired as a factory team at the end of 1955. When Jaguar decided to turn 25 unused D-Type chassis' into road-going cars, the XKSS was created. The company built the 25, but a fire at the Browns Lane factory destroyed nine of them. It is those nine that will be in the continuation run, should the XKSS get the nod. Jaguar has already sold the six E-Type Lightweight models, each one for more a million pounds ($1.52M US). The XKSS could undoubtedly command even more, with its legendary roots; the 1956 model that Steve McQueen bought for $5,000 (and Jay Leno recently drove) is said to be worth thirty million. We have to think that even if the XKSS isn't chosen right now, it will certainly get the green light at some point.
