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. |

The Jaguar E-Type is 'the most beautiful car ever made' and Omaze is giving one away
Mon, Mar 15 2021Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability is subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes. See official rules on Omaze. We routinely argue over which car is best here at Autoblog (if you don’t believe me check out some of our comparison tests), and while looks are subjective, when someone like Enzo Ferrari calls a vehicle “the most beautiful car ever made” itÂ’s hard to argue against it. The Series 1 Jaguar E-Type is indeed undeniably gorgeous, as well as iconic, and Omaze is giving away an immaculately restored 1963 example. Win a 1963 Jaguar XKE and $20,000 - Enter at Omaze This E-Type comes with an upgraded five-speed manual transmission, “its original wire-spoke wheels, luxurious leather interior and signature 3.8-liter inline-six-cylinder engine,” which makes 265 horsepower. That is modest by todayÂ’s standards but certainly not the case nearly 60 years ago. Its gorgeous black exterior and caramel leather interior will be sure to turn heads no matter what street youÂ’re driving down and with the $20,000 in cash included, the total value of this prize is nearly a quarter million dollars. YouÂ’re probably asking yourself, what does it take to win? First of all, according to Omaze, "no donation or payment is necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes." $10 will get you 100 entries in this giveaway, while $50 will get you 1,000 entries and $100 will get you 2,000 entries. The donations themselves benefit The PrinceÂ’s Trust, which, according to Omaze, “helps young people develop the confidence and skills they need to realize their ambitions. Founded by The Prince of Wales in 1976, the charity supports youth who are unemployed, struggling at school and at risk of exclusion. Their programming aims to give vulnerable young people the practical and financial support they need to stabilize their lives, helping develop self-esteem and skills for work. This summer The PrinceÂ’s Trust marked helping 1 million young people, and is committed to supporting a further million over the next decade.” If you want this opportunity to own this nearly sixty-year old piece of iconic automotive history, enter here. The deadline to enter is May 27, 2021, at 11:59 p.m. Pacific.
2024 Jaguar F-Pace Review: Fun, pretty and luxe, the big Jag's better with age
Tue, Mar 26 2024Pros: Engaging to drive; good looks; high-class cabin; crazy-good sport seats; big cargo area and generally more spacious than compact rivals Cons: Pricier than compact rivals, smaller than midsize ones; base engine acceleration a touch off the pace; convoluted climate controls The Jaguar F-Pace has now been around for quite some time – eight years have passed since we first got behind the wheel in far-flung Montenegro. While most vehicles would be well past their best years and already replaced by now, the 2024 Jaguar F-Pace is an example of something that has actually gotten better with age. Its infotainment technology is up to date and far easier to use than anything Jaguar Land Rover has offered before. Its cabin quality and design are better, the engines have been upgraded, and we even think the design tweaks made a few years ago improved upon an already knockout design. In many ways, the F-Pace is reminiscent of another small SUV thatÂ’s thrived past the usual best-by date: the Porsche Macan. It too is fun to drive, with exceptional steering, sharp handling and compelling performance, especially from the six- and eight-cylinder models. They are both for SUV shoppers looking to enjoy their time behind the wheel (and look good doing it), and are OK paying more money than other compact luxury SUVs. There is one major difference, though: The F-Pace is not only much bigger than the Macan, itÂ’s bigger than most of those other compact luxury SUVs. ItÂ’s closer to a midsize, with the closest size comparable being the Lexus RX. That grants it a spacious back seat and a surprising amount of cargo space. We were honestly not expecting to like the F-Pace as much as we did during a recent test drive of the P400 R-Dynamic S. It seemed likely that all those years in between times behind the wheel wouldnÂ’t have been kind. Far from it. We like it even better, and think those in the market for an SUV in its price range should give it a shot. Interior & Technology  |  Passenger & Cargo Space  |  Performance & Fuel Economy What it's like to drive  |  Pricing & Trim Levels  |  Crash Ratings & Safety Features What's new for 2024? Apple CarPlay and Android Auto can now be connected wirelessly. Jaguar also trimmed the F-Pace lineup down to three versions, all tied to a different engine. This results in the base price ballooning by $8,000 since the new base trim level is the R-Dynamic S.
