1954 Jaguar xk-120 green w/red interior 61000 miles. This car has been in our family since 1961. When my father purchased the car it was white with red interior. Some years later after the car sat in the garage for a while he decided to have it restored. In the early 80`s he sent it to Kane Motor Cain North Kingston,R.I. for a chassis on restoration. I have many invoices to show the work done. The Interior, trunk and top were done by Bill Bassett Jaguar of Wyoming R.I..Since then the car has been in a heated garage. We would use the the car occasionally car shows, sunday rides, etc. The car is in excellent running condition.The body has some imperfections the hood has paint that has sunk into the body work and a few bubbles. The fenders, doors, rear quarters and trunk are fine.The front right fender under the side vent where the body rolls under is scraped, but can`t be seen unless you get under the car to see it. All the chrome is in good shape . The interior has almost no wear, just where the ignition key sits the key chain rubbed the leather bead a little. The leather on top of the two doors are a little dis colored. Last year the car had a small anti freeze leak so I went to Bill Bassett and purchased a new water pump,hose kit, original rebuilt radiator and installed them. While installing the water pump I noticed the motor mounts were a little worn so I replaced them and the ground strap also. One of the carburetor had a bad float so I replaced it. Also there is a tonneau cover and floor mats that Bill Bassett did. There is the original manual with a few pages missing, also the full service manual. The car has 15 inch wire wheels on it now. I have the original 16 inch painted wire wheels mounted on an old set of tires. My name is Orlando, cell phone # 401-523-5738 you can call if you have any questions between 5pm and 8 pm Monday thru Friday and 10am and 5pm Saturday and Sunday Eastern Standard Time.

Watch this bad parker get what's coming to him
Fri, 02 Aug 2013If you're lucky enough to have a nice vehicle, do your fellow gearheads a favor and don't park like a clown. Seriously. Not only will you anger everyone who is trying to find a place to park, but your nice car is a billboard reinforcing the stereotype that car people are self-important and inconsiderate.
Take this gentleman for example. He has a Jaguar XK, and understandably wants to take care of it. Rather than parking it far, far away from any other cars and getting a bit of exercise by walking to his building, he takes up two spots (albeit barely) close to the structure. From the cameraman's narration, we can tell his coworkers are less than thrilled about his inability to stay between the lines.
Naturally, they wanted to teach him a lesson, so they parked a bigger vehicle as close to his driver's door as possible. Mr. XK's attempts to enter his vehicle are rather amusing, culminating in his climbing through the passenger side and scooching over to the driver's seat. While we can debate this sort of treatment all day long, it was effective. The video includes a follow up at the end showing where the XK driver parked the next day, and as you might guess, it wasn't in the same spot.
Aston and Jag from James Bond Spectre have at it
Sun, May 3 2015Daniel Craig hasn't made a bad James Bond film yet. Spectre is his next step into the iconic role that's due to hit theaters on November 6, and it doesn't look likely to ruin his streak. Still, that's a long wait for such an exciting movie. If you're willing to possibly spoil just a little for yourself, a new featurette shows part of one of the big car chases right now. From what we've seen so far, the chase through Rome in Spectre has earned a good amount of screen time. While the reason for it in the plot is a mystery, that doesn't really matter anyway. What's important is that the scene stars Bond in the Aston Martin DB10 and a villain played by Dave Bautista in the now supercharged V8-powered version of the Jaguar C-X75 racing around the Italian capital's tight streets at night. This clip gives a glimpse at some of the work necessary to get the difficult filming completed. We've seen some of that effort before, though, when footage of the preparation for one shot leaked out. Craig reportedly sustained a pretty bad bump on the head during the shooting, and an earlier rumor also suggested that Bond might get behind the wheel of a Fiat 500 at some point in the scene.
Playmate of the Year Raquel Pomplun gets a Jaguar F-Type
Sun, 12 May 2013The Jaguar F-Type is slinking its way into vastly divergent corners of the celebrity world. Lana del Rey is its songstress, Englishman-playing-American-terrorist Damien Lewis lead its cinematic debut in Desire, San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick gets the athletic endorsement, and now it's just been driven behind the "Adults Only" doors at the Playboy Mansion: Raquel Pomplun was gifted a year's use of an F-Type for being named 2013 Playmate of the Year.
There's a video below of Pomplun and her F-Type getting 'camera ready,' and a press release below that in case you want to, you know, "read the article."
