I have owned this V12 Jaguar coupe for about 10 years and have never done anything with it. Stored indoors engine is now running with miss. I think the injectors need replacing and a full set of 12 (expensive) injectors come with the car. also the injector wire harness is old and will need rewiring. I have acquired some teflon covered wire and new plugs for the injectors to rewire the harness. This car fires 6 injectors at a time (not sequential like modern systems) so the wiring is not too teribly complicated. I have a dozen cars and this one has just not gotten to the front of the line so I have decided to cut it loose. Sheepskin seat covers cover seats with only splits in teh pleated seems, the leather is not torn, jsut the seems. Radio was stolen, I do have replacement bezel included. also spare dash panels as some have the vinal cover peeling a little. I put new hood struts on a couple years ago. I have stored this car indoors most of the time I have owned it. It was originally a California car and has NO rus underneath and only onw small spot (shown in picture) on the body (no hole jsut a blister about 1/4 inch diameter) starting. Please do not buy this car to put a chevy v8 in it. (well do it but don't tell me). the V12 ran silky smooth before the injector harness got bad. these cars are real sleepers on the market, they are great looking and feature the legendary Jaguar IRS. Car can be inspected, will run enough to load. Gas is very old but I did put in some additives. Includes 12 new injectors (about a $1000 value) new connectors and some teflon coated wire to repair the harness. This car deserves to get on the road again. Selling at NO RESERVE! Ask Questions before bidding! I have perfect feedback since 1998 and want to keep it that way. This is a project car but very solid car to start with. Only problem I know of when it was running and driving is sometimes the trans would dump a lot of fluid when shut down, other times it wouldn't. It is a GM Turbo hydro 400 (I think, might be 350). so easy to get serviced. Bank wire or cash at pickup gets immediate release. All forms of paper payment (including cashier check) require 2 weeks after payment recieved, so personal check is as good as cashier check.
