The Car needs Paint and the face plate for the kenwood stereo system was lost. Speedometer works fine but the other gauges do not work and some knobs are missing, window tint looks bad. No A/C the compressor is installed but no condenser.
This is not a perfect car, even after $25,000 dollar's. It is a good mechanically sound car with rebuilt suspension that would make a great daily driver or track day car..... needs tlc.

Why the Jaguar XJS is the future for car collectors
As Jaguar unveils its new XJ model, something exciting is brewing in the classic cars market...
The gleaming, curved bodywork of the new Jaguar XJ was unveiled yesterday (February 9) in its first exhibition before the media and public.
When the new XJ is released onto the anticipation-filled market, it will have an asking price of lb53,000.
But, as Jaguar's new car takes the world by storm, something exciting is brewing in the classic car markets...
Ancestor models of the XJ now date back over three decades, and some of them have been performing very well on the auction blocks...
Only last year, 1991 Jaguar XJ-S XJR-S Coup'e (Chassis Num: 183372) realised $24,895 at a Bonhams & Butterfields sale.
Before that, at Kruse International in 2008, a Jaguar XJS two-door also from 1991 sold for $18,750.
The 1976 Jaguar XJS Trans-AM, sold for $225,500 |
Even as far back as 2002, XJS models were commanding five figures at top auctions. That year, a 1994 Jaguar XJS 'V-12' Convertible sold with no reserve, eventually bringing $34,993 at RM Auctions.
At the same Toronto auction, a 1995 model realised $39,220.
And, for new collectors looking for an inexpensive window into the XJS market, XJS-Mark IIs (1981-1990) have an average sales price of $10,059.
XJS models from the 1980s can bring up-to six figures at auction |
Yet some models have been known to bring as much as $31,016 at sale.
So, in terms of value and collectability, the Jaguar XJS definitely offers a bright future for collectors.
But, for now, the 'holy grail' remains the 1976 Jaguar XJS Trans-AM. The '70s classic has commanded a cool $225,500 at auction.

Hot Rod Garage series premieres with 700-hp big-block Jaguar XJ
Fri, 23 May 2014Roadkill hosts Mike Finnegan and David Freiburger have broken up - kinda - to spin off a new show, Hot Rod Garage, that mostly gives up the driveway and parking lot wrench work for the confines of a garage. We say kinda because while Finnegan is the primary host for Hot Rod Garage, Freiburger plays guest host and the new show starts off by wrenching on the Roadkill Draguar project car.
What's the Draguar? It's a 1974 Jaguar XJ12 that's about to be force-fed a 383-cubic-inch Chevrolet long-block engine with tidbits like Holley carbs, a Weiand 6-71 roots blower and a "custom WillBlow transmission," all good for about 700 horsepower. After that Finnegan gets into swapping parts on his wife's El Camino and some TIG welding lessons.
You can check out the first episode below. And in case you're worried, no, Roadkill isn't going away.
2013 Jaguar XFR-S
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Why Ask Questions When You Already Know The Answer?
"Is it fast?"
We get that question a lot. Several times a month, in fact, and it comes from every corner of our lives - friends, family, complete strangers and even colleagues from time to time. And it's an understandable query. After all, speed, either in a straight line or around a twisty bit of tarmac, is a universally accepted line of demarcation between the typical family sedan and something much more fun and therefore desirable.
Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Jaguar has announced that Jeff Curry will be serving as the brand's new North American vice president, effective August 13. The move is a coup for Jag, which lured Curry away from his previous posting as VP of marketing for Ferrari North America, and is further evidence of just how strong Jaguar's comeback has gotten.
Curry has spent over 20 years in the auto industry, and has worked with Audi, SiriusXM and Land Rover, where he made his start in the industry. His primary responsibilities with Jaguar will cover marketing communications, customer relationship management, and product planning.
Jaguar Land Rover's North American president, Andy Goss, heaped praise on the brand's newest addition saying, "Jeff brings with him extensive automotive and luxury marketing experience, critical expertise in leading-edge technologies and a personal passion for automobiles."
