Jaguar XJ6 with Dodge Slant 6 engine from Arizona (never salted) Call 920-320-9192 with questions Here we have up for your consideration this super clean 85 Jaguar XJ6 with transplant engine/trans Mopar Slant 6. When I lived in So Cal this car would not be that unusual but here in the Mid West it is...Everything here in Wisconsin is really Rusty Crusty! So if you want a rust free car then this auction is for you.Ever think about jumping on a Plane and going to get a rust free car..I have! What's that worth for a project car that has a good base to start with..The original engine is gone and replaced with the late 1980 ish I think it is 1987 maybe or so Slant 6. The engine has electronic ignition so think it is later and has aluminum intake. The transmission is also Mopar and will have to say it all fits in there very well... I registered the car to make sure there was no problems..I have no where to store it so it has to move to the next owner. When I bought it the brakes where not working and was told it was a line but after inspecting how truly rust free this car was I looked elsewhere and it turned out to be the master cylinder tank.(plastic)was cracked.It has brakes now but does not stop great the calipers are working but not correctly....I will have to add that it was a pleasure to bleed a car brakes when they came right loose because of the no salt on car thing...It was nice! All window glass seems to have no cracks in...etc.The car sat for a long long time at a local restaurant stranded. I think they drove this car from Arizona to Wisconsin so that is kinda amazing in it self. Most everything crucial seems to work. Electric windows even work. Sunroof is stuck and does not work but motor makes noise. Engine runs good and it drives ok. The power steering line had a pin hole and leaked so I cut it and spiced it back together. Brake lights where not working and it ended up being a switch. I bought it off eBay. Speedometer is not hooked up by transmission ..I looked! I think the door panels must have been replaced because they are too nice to be original..Seats are ok but have a tear here and there...Seat covers will fix it. Carpet is nice and doors shut really really nice. I'm not sure of actual miles on car since speedo is not hooked up but think is is somewhat close to what it says plus 5k or so but that is a guess. The oil pressure gauge is working and think the alternator. The temp sensor gauge is not. I think the engine and trans are solid ..just as a side note.I was told the engine was out of a truck but that has not been confirmed. The engine numbers are under a bracket and have been lazy..I'm fixing a few things as the auction continues that need to be addressed I have been driving the car and put new bushings and boots in the rack and pinion so that's done and drives nice....If you had this done I'm sure they would charge $800 or so to have this done. wiring on the car under the hood to hook up engine looks like a fifth grader worked on it but I guess it works but should be gone through Gauges need to be addressed. Car looks like it was repainted at one time... sold as is as a hot rod project...but it does run and drive. I bought a 73 Jaguar in California when I lived there and it had a 350 chev transpant and the guy who had it done by someone charged him $5000. Who ever gets this project car will fall in love with it...Its a nice ride! Let me know if you have interest...You need to be a Mechanical person and enjoy working on cars to own this! The car is located in Manitowoc ,WI 54220 Sold AS -IS |

Tata to shed 1,100 Jaguar Land Rover jobs after coronavirus hits earnings
Mon, Jun 15 2020BENGALURU — India's Tata Motors Ltd expects to shed about 1,100 temporary jobs at Jaguar Land Rover after it raised the cost-cutting target at its luxury unit by 1 billion pounds ($1.26 billion) to ride out the disruptions caused by the coronavirus outbreak. Tata Motors expects to save 5 billion pounds in costs by March 2021 at its Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) unit, the Indian automaker's Chief Financial Officer PB Balaji said on Monday, adding 3.5 billion pounds of the savings had already been achieved. It will also reduce capital expenditure at JLR to 2.5 billion pounds for the current fiscal year, from the more than 3 billion pounds it has spent annually in previous years. "Conserving cash and prioritizing capital expenditure, and targeting investment spending to the right areas is our focus," Balaji told reporters, after the company posted a fourth quarter loss. We anticipate that up to 1,100 agency employees will be affected, a JLR spokeswoman said in a separate statement. Tata Motors is reviewing all its businesses and would consider exiting those that do not add strategic value, as part of a broader effort to save 60 billion rupees ($789 million) in its domestic business in the fiscal year to 2021. The automaker on Monday posted a consolidated fourth quarter net loss of 98.94 billion rupees, as coronavirus lockdowns across its markets ravaged sales, including at JLR. Total revenue from operations fell 27.7% to 624.93 billion rupees in the quarter, which ended March 31. JLR, which contributes the bulk of Tata Motors' revenues, reported a pre-tax loss of 501 million pounds for the period after it took a hit of 800 million pounds because of the novel coronavirus, Balaji said. He said there were signs sales were recovering in China, one of JLR's biggest markets, as well as in the United States and in Europe, with strong orders for Land Rover's sport-utility vehicle Defender and Range Rover's Evoque. JLR's boss Ralf Speth, who has led the company since 2010, will step down from his role at the end of his contract term in September.
