1985 Jaquar xj6 referred to as a "lumper" meaning the engine has been changed from the Jaquar engine to a Camaro 305 engine. This makes the car much easier for mechanics to work on as well as find parts that are less expensive. There are scratches in the paint and the leather seats have some cracking. I drove this car summers only the first 4 years of owning it as well as put in some car shows. When not being driven car was exclusively garage kept. Due to illness in family and other obligations the car has not been driven in the last 3-4 years or so, therefore, it could probably use tires and a brake job. We installed an aftermarket JVC radio with CD player. The engine itself has only approximately 11000 miles on it. The story with this car is it was bought brand new in 1985/86 and driven for a very short time when it was in an accident. Due to the cost of export repairs the insurance company listed it as totaled. However, the car being of some solid steel was taken a few years later and restored. I have a clear rebuilt title from when we purchased it. We purchased on ebay in 2005 for $5001. It was always in Michigan until we purchased in 2005 and brought to Illinois. The last upgrade we did is to install an air compressor for the air conditioning. I am unsure if this actually works but the basics are there to fix if wanted. Also, we purchased the originally intended headlights and have them installed. When Jaquar sent these cars to the states they were intended to have one headlight larger than the other. Our government made them change them to the same size headlights. While they appeared to be different in size due to the frames they in fact were not. A few years ago we purchased a kit to convert them to the intended sizes and that is how they are now. The body is SOLID, this is a head turning car. The gloss on this car is stunning. There is one long scratch along one door, should be easy to buff/fix I have a low reserve, much lower than what I have paid and money put into it. VIN #sajjcalp4cc399s42 was not recognized by the ebay system but is correct VIN and shows up on Illinois VIN website as well as on title. Car was legally imported when first purchased in 1985.
