1959 Jaguar XK150 Drop Head Coupe with black California license plates; 100% original factory metal; and 81,222 original miles. No rust ever. Numbers-matching car with rare Black/Red color combination, per Jaguar's Heritage Certificate. A completely original car that was stored indoors for 35 years and recently restored. Over the past year the entire car was disassembled and taken to metal, hand dollied and hand blocked, and painted with the finest base/clear paint. All body rubbers and seals are replaced new, new interior, new top. The undercarriage was taken to metal and sealed with epoxy primer and paint for 30 year rust protection (all factory spot welds are still visible). Owned by a famous U.S. Navy Seal and cowboy shooter named James Gordon, whose job in the early 1970's was to infiltrate nuclear-armed vessels and plant fake bombs: Only the Admiral of the U.S. Navy knew what vessel James Gordon would hit, and his penetration rate was 70%, often climbing up ship anchor chains in a frog suit like an American James Bond. Later in life James Gordon was the #1 competition cowboy shooter in the country, named "Yuma Jim." He bought this Jaguar in 1969 and drove it during his Seal career when he lived in Vallejo, CA. He stopped driving the car in the late 1970's and started restoring it, accumulating many of the parts we used to complete the project. A fine example of one of the most stylish cars every built.

Can a Jaguar XKR-S be drifted while blindfolded?
Thu, 27 Dec 2012Bring together a 550-horsepower Jaguar XKR-S and a rain-soaked skidpad, and it's almost impossible to not end up in a sideways drift... accidental or on purpose. With that in mind, the gang over at Autocar got a hold of the monstrous XKR-S for the latest installment of "Will it Drift?," only they raised the stakes a little by attempting the feat with a blindfolded driver
We've driven the XKR-S a number of times here at Autoblog (including a First Drive, Review and Quick Spin), so we weren't at all surprised to learn that blind drifting in the car is possible. But what is remarkable is the ease at which it happened. This, of course, can be credited as much to the car as to the driver, Steve Sutcliffe. Check out the impressive video for yourself, which is posted after the jump.
Jaguar F-Type US order guide loose online
Fri, 08 Feb 2013
An alleged US order guide for the 2014 Jaguar F-Type has made its way online courtesy of the good people at F-TypeClub.com, documenting everything from wheel color options to special equipment packages. From the looks of things, buyers will be able to choose from a total of eight wheel designs in sizes ranging from 18 inches on the base model all the way up to 20 inches. While most of those rollers are available in either silver or black finishes, the 20-inch blade-style wheels are not only forged, but come with carbon-fiber trim. Fancy.
Depending on trim, F-Type buyers will get to choose between two types of seat, including a set of performance-style 14-way power adjustable thrones, complete with seat belts in black, red or tan. Other fun tricks include available power folding side view mirrors and a 770-watt, 14-speaker Meridian sound system.
Jaguar XE teased in new video, will debut September 8
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Outside of a major auto show, this might be one of the best times of the year for new car debuts, and we couldn't be more excited. Just this week, the low-slung face of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata showed itself to the world, and Land Rover debuted its new Discovery Sport. Plus, there's a double-whammy of launches on the imminent horizon with the unveilings of the Jaguar XE on September 8 and the Mercedes-AMG GT on September 9.
Jag is teasing the launch of its latest midsize luxury sedan with a few glimpses on video. It's strangely secretive, given the fact that Jaguar showed the XE's face completely un-camouflaged a few weeks ago. Regardless, it's quite a looker up front with a sleeker take on the shape of the larger XF.
Because of the way Jaguar is slowly leaking details about the XE, there are a few other things we already know about this new cat, too. It rides on a monocoque chassis made from over 75 percent aluminum, and the automaker is promising 75 miles per gallon fuel economy on the more lenient European cycle for at least one engine in the lineup.
