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*** |

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack
Sun, 21 Sep 2014Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
2014 Jaguar XJR is large, in charge
Wed, 27 Mar 2013There are few things in this world we love more than a huge, supersonic-feeling sedan, and Jaguar has just ripped the sheets off of its newest entry into that set of bruisers. The 2014 Jaguar XJR puts down a full 550 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque courtesy of a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. All that thrust lands on the rear tires through an eight-speed automatic transmission, and the big aluminum-chassis'd four door can sprint to 60 miles per hour in a skinny 4.4 seconds. Top speed sits at an electronically limited 174 mph, and Jaguar estimates the machine will still return up to 23 miles per gallon highway.
Do. Want.
The 2014 XJR also features stiffer spring and damper rates along with an electronically controlled rear differential. Of course, there are plenty of styling tweaks on hand to separate the most menacing XJ from the rest of the family. Those include new fascias, R emblems and massive 20-inch wheels outdoors as well as special seating and trim elements indoors. Asking price? That would Be $116,000 for the XJR and $119,000 for the long-wheelbase L version. Check out the full press blast below.
2014 Jaguar XFR-S is the power and the fury
Thu, 29 Nov 2012If there's something wrong about a sedan with a 550-horsepower supercharged V8, we don't want to hear about it. Instead, we want to marvel at the car in person, which is fortuitous because Jaguar has officially unveiled the 2014 XFR-S at the 2012 LA Auto Show. That blown 5.0-liter V8 dishes up a full 502 pound-feet of torque, which is good enough to shuttle the four-door to 60 mph in a scant 4.4 seconds. And, thanks to a start stop system and a few other fuel-saving tricks, the 2014 XFR-S gets away without being hit by the gas guzzler tax.
That's all good news, but we're just as excited about the fact that engineers managed to crank up the vehicle's chassis stiffness by a ludicrous 30 percent. Stiffer dampers and springs also give the car a little more poise, and a wide-open exhaust lets the whole world know you're kicking down their door. You know, in case the electric blue paint and wild body work didn't tip your hand. Check out the full gallery above for a closer look.
