Default Hello from Chattanooga Tennessee

hello my name is Jerel are from Chattanooga Tennessee I am an 18-year-old college student studying at Auburn working on becoming an architect throughout my life I knew jaguars are interesting to only the most stylish, elegant, yet modest group of people. And I wanted to be the kind of person who embodies the jaguar personality





So I bought my first jaguar car, the 1986 XJ6 Vanden plan, and already I plan on keeping this ride for a loooong time. The owner originally wanted $2000 but I talked them down to mere 850! I plan to re-clearcoat all of the wood. I want to modernize the vehicle with all of the luxury amenities
halogen lights automatic door lock LCD screen Heated seating Audio system
I'll only put these if It un-changes it's classic look
The current problems I face with the car is a rust problem on the back panel, the speedometer does not work, The blinkers just stopped working, I remember driving and I hit a turn or bump a weird "baseball card on bicycle wheel tire" sound is made near the front passenger side of the car.
If you have any comments, questions or suggestions , please just write a post or send me a message, I'm a young guy so I need all of your knowledge and wisdom so I won't have a major **** up hahaha

Hello, Jerel,
Some of us (like me) feel the Xj6 is the Quintessential Jaguar.
