Nice really nicely done.... who did your carbon fiber dash and parts?

 

great job!

 

Beautiful job. I love seeing this transformation. I'm in the process of doing my XK8 and this pictorial gives me some impetus.

 

Wow, impressive turnaround. You'd never know it was the old car! I too was skeptical when I saw the yellow go on, but it works well. Nice touches, not over the top. Not sure I've ever seen a yellow one before! You'll be bringing plenty of cheer around Old Blighty with that thing this winter... enjoy!

 

Unbelievable! Barefoot, you have set the bar very high for the rest of us to produce such a superior quality restoration. An example to all of us of what can be achieved; but very few of us will ever attain, including me. An immense goal even to attempt to reach; if all of us reached a quarter or an eighth of what you have done so well, the average price of our beloved Jags would instantly double.

Congratulations Barefoot… I’m in envy.

 

what an amazing transformation! bravo!

 

Interested in what you did with the seat leather?

 

Whaou ! Super nice. Very good job indeed. As you said, might not be a car for everyone but the result is superb.

If I may, there's only one thing I'm not sure about : the yellow mirrors pillars. There catching too much attention in my view, but it's a very minor thing with regards to what you've achieved. The interior restauration is stunning as well. Congrats !

 

BRAVO! How adventurous and brave of you to undertake and complete this job. Congratulations! Any desire to paint the calipers to match the yellow? I think they'd look smashing against the black wheels (with black Jaguar lettering on the yellow calipers).

 

That car is begging for a set of Detroit 20" wheels. Those rims look like spares

 

Barefoot built the car in 2014 and has not been on since.

 

He's probably been too busy driving his car...

I doubt it. It's probably sold.
What part of Conn. are you in. Barrington RI here.

 

LOL ! Didn't notice the date when I posted...

 

I still have the car I have had new carpets and swapped the original Sat nav for a new off the shelf Garmin that's fitted in the same place as the original screen. I have had a bigger pulley fitted it now pulls like a train and sounds great!

 

Nice fleet there.

 

NICE
