For your consideration is my 1956 Jaguar XK140 fhc MC, Matching Numbers with Overdrive This is a very special, black plate, California car when considering the rarity and the amount of money already spend on mechanics and restoration. I have over 11,000 USD in receipts documenting the work that has been done on this car over the years. Original Black plates included. NO ROT or "knee-high" drama with this cat. This has always been a west coast car until I acquired this Jaguar and the body is simply exquisite as a restoration candidate. No metal replacement, no new body panels, SOLID rockers, pillar posts, etc. This is, in my opinion, the biggest selling point of this cat, and the fact that the engine has been completely rebuilt and purrs as it should. Complete car, including original radio, all removable panels, and many new parts as well.
As the Jaguar Trust Certificate shows, this is a very rare, Red on Red/Biscuit two-tone color combination Jaguar. I'll spare everyone the history of this car..if you are reading this, you are well aware of its rarity and blue-chip potential. The car is comprehensively original, minus some restoration that started a last summer. This Jaguar purrs like a Jaguar should and has been driven during the summer months. Yes, car runs and drives and I have enjoyed it on nice days as some restoration took place. Here is what has been accomplished on this Jaguar thus far: (over 11K of receipts) 1- Rebuilt engine, 2- All brake components including re-sleeving wheel cylinders, etc. had been rebuilt and/or new parts. 3- All removable panels, including mud guards front and rear, battery boxes, spare tire boot, panels on right/left of engine compartment, transmission tunnel, driveshaft tunnel have been media blasted and powder coated black! 4- Transmission Tunnel and driveshaft tunnel are now fully removable to accommodate removal of transmission without pulling motor and transmission per Jaguar spec. 5- FULL stainless steel exhaust 6- Trunk compartment is completely media blasted, epoxy primed, restored, and painted using Diamont single stage Enamel. Paint will go with car. I decided to go with the 56' CARMINE Red instead of the Carmen red on the exterior of the car currently. My intention was to fit the Jaguar with the Red interior with Biscuit centers on the seats per original specs and the Carmine Red deep hue seemed such a better combination than the orangey-red on the car now. 7- All new wood floors and spare tyre lid. 8- AlUMINUM gas tank fitted to increase the look of this MC model 9- New Mallory dual point mechanical distributor- huge improvement on performance of engine. 9- Front windshield chrome is accounted for, rear window chrome is accounted for, rear tail light assemblies, etc. Everything that was removed to begin trunk restoration is accounted for and will go with car. I have many new parts that go with the Jaguar as well, including Rear chrome strip on boot lid of jaguar, front floor jack covers, body rubbers, bolts, marker light assemblies, etc. Everything will go with car. Original steel gas tank and distributor are accounted for as well. Note: only damage that I have seen in the the body is the passenger side rear fender. It has a skim coat of alumilead on the rear section of the fender. The rear must have been bumped at one time. The metal is all good and strong on the back side. I began to strip both rear quarters to make sure there were no surprises. I believe this Jaguar will make someone very very enthusiastic about owning and hopefully restoring her as she is enjoyed. You will be getting a solid, matching numbers, running and driving semi-restored Jaguar. I hope the pictures speak for themselves and please feel free to request any further pics. I will be happy to prepare car for international shipping- all shipping is responsibility of buyer. Jaguar is for sale locally and I reserve right to end auction at any time. Any questions please call 315 313-8300. *** Winning bidder will have first rights to a spare matching numbers MC engine (matching C type head and block numbers) and Manual transmission with O/D*** |

Wacky Jaguar crossover mule is a mind-blowing mashup
Tue, 03 Dec 2013As Jaguar prepares to introduce its first-ever utility vehicle, our spy shooters have captured this jacked-up XF mule out testing. While a production Jaguar crossover will surely resemble something closer to the recent C-X17 Concept, we can't help but think that the automaker could sell at least a few of these lifted, four-wheel-drive sedans.
Other than proving that Jaguar is hard at work developing this new model using a cobbled-together body, there are some details we can put together about this luxury CUV. For one it's about the same length as an XF, while the ride height is obviously taller and the tire track wider. We're not sure what the rig on top of this mule is for, but the whole car has us reminiscing about the old sedan versions of the Subaru Outback and the AMC Eagle (with a luxury spin, of course).
Jaguar producing short film starring Damian Lewis from Homeland [w/video]
Fri, 30 Nov 2012Jaguar is working up a short film to coincide with the US debut of the company's new F-Type. Desire will feature actor Damian Lewis in the lead role opposite Jordi Molla as the main villain in the story. The whole of the action will take place against the picturesque backdrop of the Chilean desert with filming starting early next month. According to Jaguar, the story will follow Lewis as he plays Clark, a man who delivers cars for living. Things get exciting when he crosses paths with a young woman played by Shannyn Sossamon.
With music by Lana Del Rey and some serious production value, Desire sounds keen to take its place among great automotive advertising short films like the BMW Driver series. Jaguar has released a quick teaser, which you can check out by heading over to the F-Type site. You may also take a peek at the full press release below for more information. Expect to see the film debut early next year.
First Ride: 2014 Jaguar F-Type [w/video]
Fri, 08 Feb 2013Shotgun In Coventry's First Sports Car In Decades
For every car, there is a passionate group of fans who love it, and the F-Type already has a few million rabid followers. These are fabulous things, sports cars, and we're very happy that Jaguar is making one again. Finally. (Before you start relishing the prospect of correcting us, the XK is really a grand tourer, not a sports car.)
The main question, however, will be whether someone in a position to buy a lifestyle-enhancing yet impractical F-Type will do so in the face of more established competitors from Porsche, Aston Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW. The last time Jaguar built a true two-seater sports car (1974 E-Type; the last of the XJ220 limited run in 1994 doesn't count in this league), most of today's new buyers were too young or may not yet have been born. At any rate, the F-Type has a lot of work to do for the brand beyond just selling itself.
