This is a beautiful car and I've replaced a ton of stuff on it:


Tires
Wheels
Brakes (Master down to slaves, pads, rotors)
Valve Cover Gasket
Starter motor
Ignition coil
plugs
plug wires
seat belts
front wiring harness

... the list goes on (if you want to know everything that has been replaced, send me a note and I'll reply)

However, it's a 40 year old car and needs TLC and constant attention that I can no longer give it. The latest issue is with engine compression. I'm currently getting 90 to 120 psi and it needs to be considerably higher on all 4 to run right. It probably needs a ring job. 

The body is in good shape (minimal rust), the transmission, and suspension and peripherals are in great condition. She needs someone who can spend the time to get her back in fighting shape.

THIS PART IS IMPORTANT - THE CAR IS REGISTERED IN ALABAMA - ALABAMA DOES NOT TITLE VEHICLES OLDER THAN 1975. I CAN PROVIDE THE LAST OWNER'S TITLE (I BOUGHT IT IN TENNESSEE), AS WELL AS ALL REGISTRATION INFORMATION AND A NOTARIZED BILL OF SALE - BUT NO CURRENT TITLE.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, 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.
