 Selling my 1970 Jaguar XJ.
This car is my daily driver. She has around 40,000 believed original miles, and I believe I am the third owner, however, I have no documention to prove.
The good:
Paintwork on this car cost someone a sore arm. It is extremely slick and smooth with very few blemishes. They window seals have been replaced as have the window scraper seals. Has a new headliner and the seats are in great original shape with no rips or tears. Stiching is in good shape with no burst seams. The carpets are dirty, but original I think. A/C works, blows cold, although it does not have the air volume of modern cars, so at best I can say it keeps up but will not freeze you out, it is 134a converted. The entire HVAC syetm work, which for those of you who have played with it, is kind of a big deal- all vents work, recirculation, heater, vent, and A/C when you want, where you want. Everything works, all windows, blowers, fuel guages, lights, etc. Many conversion and upgrades on this car. I do NOT purport it to be original in mechanical aspects, in fact, I know its not. She has a 1985 Daimler DS420 engine and transmission in her. Neat thing is... Daimler came with Jag installed GM TH350 3 speed transmission, which this has. No John's Car conversion here. I have added the MK10 intake, triple SU 2" HD8 carbs, which have been rebuilt, and modified an MK10 intake to suit. The engine runs strong, does not smoke. I have installed the polished valve covers on it. It has a 14" electric cooling fan in a shroud installed. It is pure Series 3 XJ for Radiator, oil cooler, condensor, compressor, front suspension, brakes, steering rack, power steering pump, crank pulley, oil filter housing and filter, and exhaust front the downpipe back. The rear suspension has been rebuilt, with a 3.54:1 PowerLock diff. This car will MOVE when needed. Also has a Lucas HE coil, and I'm not sure about the distributor, but I want to say it a 45DM6 from the S3 cars, with a Pertronix unit installed. I think it could use a bit more static advance as above 4500RPMs she begins to run out of power (S3 provided 15 degrees or something like that, these things run well at 35 or so). She also has two new fuel tanks and senders. And the stereo is fantastic, 4 MB Quart 5.25" door speakers (the rears are under the seat) and two 10" MB Quart subs on the rear deck. They are powered by an Alpine amp that is turned down so that it doesn't just go boom boom boom. Sound quality is great. I have my doubts that it was american spec to start with, as she has 7" outer headlights and no sidemarkers.
Now, the bad bits:
Upper part of rear seat has sun damage (?) as in the leather is hard but no split seams. It has responded well to conditioning with leather creams, but reverts back to being hard in a couple months. Has oil leaks, namely the oil return hose from the oil dump off the pressure relief valve. Needs some steering rack boots. It has a chip in the passengers fender where the door opened and nicked the paint (has been filled in, need wet sanding and buffing), there are two ding in the hood where the valve covers are closest to the hood (I think someone had acorn nuts and slammed the hood and then realised what he did), and there is a scrape on the valence under the fuel tank on the passengers side (courtesy my 3 year old daughter.... Kids, sheesh). There is a slight fuel smell when completely full and windows are down. Bumper chrome has some pitting or blemishes, but no rust and present well. All other chrome is in fantastic shape. I do have the chrome for the front and rear windows to go with, along with a heated rear window to replace the non heated one on the car currently. The blower switch need an occasional thump to get high going, and the fuel changeover switch always works the pump, but not always the gauge. Engine fans should be wired in with the A/C, as currently its not.

I do have a manual conversion available to go with for extra $$$ if anyone is interested, consisting of a bellhousing, flywheel, pedal box, master and slave cylinders, 4 speed with O/D box, and driveshaft.

And thats about that. She runs awesome, my wife and her took her to the Mitty this year, Chattenooga earlier this year, were planning a beach trip shortly in it if it does not sell. I am not afraid to drive it anywhere. I do not NEED to sell it (Selling mostly cause it get 11mpg as a daily driver, and its too nice to use up as a daily driver), so I will wait for a reasonable offer. I know whats in it, I've been watching the market. I will trade this car for a BMW M5, 02 740iL (plus cash) or 750iL, or 540i with a 6 speed. For more info, call Gavin at 205.902.7625. Also, bid what you think its worth to you. And good luck.
