Default Hi From AWAJ

I know AWAJ looks exotic, but it stands for Always Wanted A Jag, so it's not exotic.

Currently, my nephew and I are restoring a 1968 MGB in his garage. We're welding in floorboards, rockers, a trunk and generally acting like two madmen by throwing time and money at this old rusty car, and loving every moment of it.

The car is his and it has given me the bug to own that Jag that I've dreamed of owning. So I've begun a search for an XJC but decided that what I really want is an XJS convertible, go figure.

I'm looking and hoping to get some advice on buying the car and then I'm sure this forum will be invaluable in maintaining it. Thank you for being here to join in with.

AWAJ

If you're currently welding up/recreating an MGB, you're a real glutton for punishment!
I hope you find the Jag of your dreams.

I told my nephew that it wasn't worth fixing, but he could talk me into anything. So we work on the car.
