This is a nice all original jaguar xke v10 2+2 coupe, floors are solid, under side etc, only spot is about the size of a quarter on the driver side door and battery pan where the old battery was leaking acid.. the motor runs, it has an automatic transmission, im not sure how it drives as it needs break fluid. and probably a flush It has always been garaged and sat for about 8 years before I aquired it. I put a new battery in it, and fuel, after I checked the gas tank. Cleaned the points on the fuel pump, new fuel lines in the rear, it will start and run. It will need the carbs rebuilt as they leak fuel when it is idling. I have not had a chance to flush the cooling system but I would replace the hoses first, they look to be newer but its just a precaution. overall the body is straight no major dents, It is still shiny and glossy looks great from 10 feet away..... good drivers quality, it has been re painted a while back British racing green now, the bright work is in good shape, bumpers and all trim in good, I managed to clean a majority of it and it all shined up great, still some pitting on the front and rear bumpers but its great drivers quality. the wheels are nice as well for a drivers quality some minor rust spots on the wheels. The motor is Numbers matching, The number on the rear center matches up with the cowl tag, but that's as far as I went with verifying The interior is fair, drivers and passenger side seat have some cracking, back seat is OK, headliner is falling, dash is in good shape, gauges are good, carpet is good. AGAIN good drivers quality, and its all original which is the way i would keep it. The console is missing the radio bezel, and shift indicator All lights and electrical work, the headlights only work with high beams, Factory A.C car power steering and power breaks. Tires are like new but have some dry rot from sitting. 3 owner car including me with documentation Originally shipped to Reno Nevada when new, The original owner purchased it and brought it to its home in Houston where it had been since new! Hence the very minimal rust. The car is now in McKinney Texas I have a stack of service records for this car also! 55k original miles I will assist with shipping , and deliver for free within 30 miles of McKinney TX Thanks!
