Default 1989 xj6 just picked up.

Hi,

Yesterday I finally picked up my dads Jag. It has been sitting in my grandmas garage for about 4-5 years. I am just south of Jackson MI. It is not in horrible shape but needs some work. Starts with starter fluid but won’t stay running. Interior needs some work. Body is solid but needs trim and a taillight fixed.

I am completely in the dark about what to do with it. I would really like someone who knows Jags to take a look at it locally. Any recommendations around the Jackson MI area?

Thanks,
Dominic

Welcome to the forums Dirtydom,

Unless it's carrying a lot of weight, the rear end is sitting VERY low.

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xj40-xj81-25/ to the XJ40 forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues. You can also use the US Midwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-midwest-39/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
