Default I'm new here

Greetings
I live in Australia. I own a 1989 Jaguar XJS 3.6 but it is not an Australian delivery. It's previous home was Hong Kong. I recently had to decide whether to part with the car (it needs work) or work at restoring it. I chose restoration.

Welcome to the forum freds,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums. You will regret that decision many times before it's finished but then it will really be worth it.

Follow this link

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Enjoy the forums.

I tried uploading pics but I think they're too big. How do I get around that?

I usually resize photos to 1000 pixel width. Loses nothing in definition on screen but significantly reduces the file size.
