Welcome and congrats on your dream car

 

Here are a couple of pics. As you can see, it is in need of a new top. but the engine is sound and runs like a dream.

 

Welcome to the forum.

I hope for your sake that your wife has a sense of humour.

Good to have you with us.

 

Hello and welcome to the board. Great to have you here! The car is excellent. In addition to the new top, what other types of repairs(if any) are needed?

 

the engine is sound and purrs like a kitten (baby jag,maybe?). new top, new paint. lots of little things. The fan belt sqeals a little when cold and I catch a feint smell of burning oil occasionally. but thats about it.

 

Translator, that was very funny. I sent my wife Kirby Palm's "Jaguar Etiquette: How to introduce a lady to a fine automobile". She loved it! if you have not checked it out, it is hilarious. Proper Jaguar Behaviour
thanks for the feedback. Steve
