Default My first Jaguar, my first British car... ish

Greetings all! I've only recently aquired a 1972 XJ6, and look forward to learning all I can here. It is one of the "converted" vehicles, having been swapped to a Chevrolet 350/350 powertrain, with the surgery performed long before my stewardship.

Cheers!

Easy

Welcome to the forum Easy,

Good to have you here with us at Jaguar Forums.

Follow this link XJ6 & XJ12 Series I, II & III - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the XJ6 Series I, II & III forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

Please remember to 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.

(stretching my US geography knowledge here - think I'm right about Orangevale!) You can also visit the US Western Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/western-us-ak-ca-nv-ut-hi-wa-id-38/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

I'm laughing at myself here -- I just had a conversation with a guy today who told me that a lot of old Jags were converted to Chevy engines - I had never heard of that, but here I am reading your just a few hours later! I learned something today!

Welcome!

Not to be a nit-picker, but I would put "... Chevy V8 conversion"

Welcome, from one of the newer kids on the block.

This place is incredible.
