Default Howdy!!!

New to the forums and got my second Jaguar (my first was a '74 v12 roadster...Ya I know...why did I get rid of that?!?!?) last year.

My current Jag is an '88 Vanden Plas (V12)...aquired last year. It was meant to be a "tinkering project", although I may be in way over my head?? I have lots of experience with British Leyland products (50-70's). They were a challenge...all this emission control and vacuum hoses everywhere is mind boggling!!!

My name is Bo...ex-restaurateur, current Heavy Equipment Operator. Residence in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada.

Thanks for having me!!!

Welcome to the forum Bo,

Good to have you with us.
I was wondering how you made the leap from restaurateur to a heavy equipment driver then I saw your location and the penny dropped. :-)
Enjoy the forum.

If you haven't done so already you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.
