Talking greetings from the Big Sky

I'm a new member since buying my third Jaguar. Actually 3rd and 4th-I am a 60 year old disabled veteran with an Erector Set spine so I have a bit tougher time doing the things I used to but I had an offer I couldn't refuse. I bought a '92 XJ-Sovreign Sedan which I am told smokes badly and a '93 XJ6 that needs a starter for $600. I'm told the '93 runs well so I intend fixing it up for my BFF to replace her Honda which is dying slowly but surely. The '92 is going to be the recipient of either one of the 4 bolt main 350 Chevy motors we have lying around or possibly a 307 or 388. I have one of each of those little oddballs leftover from our 1/8 mile drag-racing days. I'm thinking of building a daily driver so getting better milage than the stock 6 is more important to me than speed really. We're still working on hauling them home but I'll post pics and full specs once I get them here into the shop. Maybe a few of the Triumph motorcycles we have littering the shop as well. Anyway, thanks for having me.
