Vehicle Detail
This is one of the most original well-maintained lowmilaged Jaguauar XJ6 Series one cars I've found. I'm only selling it because I'm moving and I can't afford the city storage fees in downtown Chicago. I have six vintage Jaguars. I adore originality and this one is just original. Not a show car but it's all English made components and the aroma and details with regard to to wood, Wilton velour carpets are all ther. Body is laser straight. the undercarriage is guaranteed SOLID . Only minor surface rust underside and in the trunk there is minor rust in the pan that any professional could address for a song. I know these cars and finding this one at low mileage and not a rust bucket is rare.There is virtually no rust to speak of. Car was repainted original silver and paint is presentable and looks sharp all waxed up. Chrome is OUTSTANDING? Body panels are tight with no sag and all the options save for air conditioning function properly. Compressor turn but is not charged. Does notbleaknoit or run hot. Issues I'd address are shock bushings and maybe new poly bushing but handles well regardles. The SWB zips around corners and is a pleasure to drive. The car has a couple issues: the is minor rust in the trunk floor plan. Easy fix. The left drivers side fule pump needs rebuilt or replace ($150) also I'd clean it out the right fuel take and replace the filter and hose. I spent $1599 on me brake lines and calipers were greased services and new pads. I have receipts. Oil pressure is at 40 psi at tickover and car tracks perfectly. It needs shock bushing and maybe a few other rubber parts in the radius arms and from suspension but that's it. Car runs cool and no coolant leaks. Brakes were flushed so totally new fluids, new oil change 29/50 Castrol only. This is a really nice XJ Series 1 that with minor TLC you could drive daily.

I'm only selling it because I'm moving and will not have the storage. I've had several Series 1 XJs and I adore this particular car for its originality. Though not a show car, it has all the original English-made components. The aroma and details with regard to wood dash, Connolly leather, and Wilton velour carpets, respectively, are all there. Body is laser straight. The undercarriage is very solid. There is virtually no rust to speak of other than whatis located on the trunk floor pan. Please review photos for this. I know these cars, finding this one at such a low mileage that's also not a rust bucket is rare. At some point, the car was re-sprayed in its original silver. The paint is presentable and looks sharp all waxed up. The chrome is OUTSTANDING! Body panels are tight with no sag and all the options sans air conditioning function properly. Compressor turns but is not charged. There are no serious leaks nor does it run hot. Issues I'd address are shock bushings and maybe new poly bushings at some point. The car handles well regardless. The SWB (short wheel base) zips around corners and is a pleasure to drive. The left (driver's) side fuel pump needs to be cleaned and rebuilt or replaced ($150). Also, I'd clean out the right fuel take and replace the filter and hoses on that side. The right gas tank and fuel pump work perfectly.
