This 1966 Jaguar XKE is a barn find in rural
Georgia. It is the 294th 2+2 covered headlight car out of more than
2,600 Series 1 cars made. It is a project car, but is in good shape for
its age and ready for restoration. It comes with 4.2-litre engine with
3 carbs, automatic transmission and dealer installed A/C. The odometer
reads 57,993 miles. It was last registered in Puerto Rico in 1984, and
was shipped to Georgia not long after. Since then it has been sitting
(30 years) in a barn with a concrete floor.
This
classic is white with a black interior. At one time in its history, it
had been repainted maroon, then the last owner repainted it in white
lacquer, which has crackled. The paint has been partially stripped, then left in storage while the owner
moved on to other projects. The car is missing
the exhaust system, and it has some rust, mainly in the driver's side
rocker, door bottom and floor (all pictured). There's also a little rust at the bottom
of the hatch and a few other spots. I can see Bondo work in several
places. The turn signal lenses are cracked and one is missing. With
that said, I've seen much worse. The spare tire
well is in great shape, however, and the tire may be the original
Dunlop. The motor turned over 3 months ago. The interior is in very
good shape with some normal wear. There are no cracks or tears in the
door panels, dash or console. The seats are pretty nice. The headliner and
most of the carpet has been removed to check floor condition (all 4 shown). All the
glass is present. The rest of the car appears to be complete, except for the front bumper, which the previous owner is trying to locate. The last picture shows the car as found. Please let me know if you
would like to see more pictures or if you have any other questions. Call
me at 912-257-5333. This car will be sold with
a Bill of Sale ONLY, as Georgia does not title cars this old. I also
have the 1984 Puerto Rico registration. High
bidder to pay $1,000 non-refundable through PayPal upon completion of
auction. Balance to be paid within 7 business days. The car will not
be released until all funds have been cleared. Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding! |

Jaguar SUV mule doing Ring testing in Evoque clothes
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Jaguar has moved its Range Rover Evoque-bodied tests of the production C-X17 Concept from icy streets to the legendary Nürburgring, as work continues on the brand's first SUV.
Really, there's not a great deal of new stuff here. Based on the number plates, this is a different vehicle from the one we saw back in March, which we originally identified as the upcoming replacement for the Land Rover Freelander/LR2. The details, though, appear largely the same. The biggest distinction we can see between the March tests and this are the US-spec headlights, which add amber reflectors at their sides. Based on these shots, it does seem as if the C-X17 should be a fairly poised road vehicle, as the engineers hustle it around the 'Ring.
Of course, as soon our spies can capture images of a production-bodied C-X17, we'll be sure to pass those on to you. Until then, take a look up top for images of the Range Rover-bodied Jaguar as it tests at Germany's Nürburgring. You can also scroll down for our March images for the C-X17 mules testing on public roads.
Jaguar opens new engine plant in the UK
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The heads of Jaguar Land Rover are having a busy couple of weeks opening factories. Just days after inaugurating the company's first overseas plant in China, the automaker's new Engine Manufacturing Center in the UK is being inaugurated, as well. The plant near Wolverhampton, England, marks the first time in decades that JLR is building its own powerplants in-house. Further signaling the importance of this launch for the business, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were on hand and even tweeted about it.
The factory's first major project is to build JLR's latest Ingenium four-cylinders, starting with the 2.0-liter diesel version. "Our new Engine Manufacturing Centre is an important step in advancing the competitiveness and capability of the UK automotive sector. The production of in-house engines will support the expansion of the UK supply chain providing critical mass for inward investment," said Trevor Leeks, plant operations director in the automaker's announcement.
Opening the doors to the Engine Manufacturing Center has been years in the making for JLR. The plant was first announced in September 2011 and broke ground in June 2012. Building it cost the company 500 million pounds ($800 million) and created 1,400 new jobs. Of course, being a state-of-the-art factory, considerations were made to make the place as energy efficient as possible. That meant installing the UK's largest solar array with 21,000 panels to produce about 30 percent of the site's electricity needs.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
