Vehicle Detail
I am the second owner. This car has not been driven for 20 years and has sat in a garage. It needs a new fuel pump, headliner, tires, windshield wipers and battery. The interior is black and red leather with a small tear on the drivers side seat. I bypassed the fuel pump to start the car. It fired right up and sounds great. The engine is an all aluminum, fuel injected, overhead cam, 325 HP V-12 w/dual exhaust. It is bolted to a Borg-Warner Model 2 automatic transmission. Every piece of the car is original and all numbers match. In 1977, this was one of the fastest production cars built. There were 3200 built for that year and 1977 was the first year they were built for import to the US. I have been told by another Jag owner that the first year for the US version of the XJ-S was 1976. According to my manual and everything I have ever read, 1977 was the first year. Any buyer may want to research this matter further.
