Description:

Car got hit by tree, roof bent in on driver's side, glass gone front and rear and driver's side, head rest too, but most else is okay.
Car was daily driver, in good condition, all working. Around 130k miles.

Does anyone want anything before it goes to pick n pull, or does anyone want the whole thing?
Car is 30 miles east of Sacramento, California.

We did not get anything from the insurance, just trying to get some cash back from the parts.

Almost anything Accessories $1 Let me know what you want, prices will be low for owner's and enthusiasts.

Ouch, sorry to hear. If this car was equipped with xenons, I'd be interested in the xenon lights and ballasts.

A buyer is lined up, due to collect on Tuesday.
Plan is for drive train swap into dying 2005, along with any other useful parts.
That's tha dealie-o.

Retaining strength would be the issue for a convertible, would you want to be in a crash in one that might fold like a napkin?

Jerry, I did not take that as snarky, I was just trying to respond in similar lingo :-)

The sale fell through, so car is available again, but not sure how I would get rid of a car with no shocks, that presumably would not roll? And you are kinda far away to tow the whole lump back to yours.
If I get time this week, I will call pick n pull and see if they can crane the remains onto a flat bed or something after removing 4 shocks.

Hi Cooldood. I sent you a PM last week. Not sure if you received it. I'm looking for a right side, halogen, headlamp assembly for my '05 XJ8. Somebody bumped our car while it was parked in the local post office parking lot. So now, I have to deal with that. The left hand headlamp is virtually like new, so I'm hoping to find a RH assembly with relatively clear lenses to match.

Bill

Default Opportunity in loss

Sorry, sorry, sorry for the loss.

A few years ago I looked into buying a WRX four door convertible. It was one of five produced by a California company that also made four door Jaguar convertibles. It has been done and done well.

I would love to own a four door Jaguar XJ convertible. I have seen photos of them and the lines are perfect. This company (Newport Customs?) is experienced with beefing up the chassis of four door cars. You are on the wrong end of the country for me but this is one great opportunity for someone.


OOOPPPSS,
Sorry it was an S-Type. I am not sure if they make convertibles out of XJs.

The car has gone to new owners, they hope to use it to revive another, less bent, XJ8.
