Default New guy here, having a few issues yet.

Hello, Just wanted to introduce myself to the community. I'm from northern Minnesota and I'm in the market for a late model XJS convertible. Hope to have one soon. I'm not a stranger to Jags however, I've been around them since I was a kid. I owned an 89 XJS V-12 Coupe some years back and my father owned a 55 XK-140 Roadster and a 56 XK-140 FHC. The Roadster unfortunately was sold back in 85 but he kept the Coupe. After he passed away in 08 the Coupe passed on to me and I currently own that. I was driving XK's out on the country roads when I was 12 years old! What a lucky kid! lol

JIMC64... I can post now, and search the forums. The weird thing is I lost the ability to PM you. I received your PM earlier, but now it's gone-lol! Also, I can not view pics on the site when I am reading threads. It says that I am not allowed.

Here's a few pics of the old girl;

Beautiful car! Love the lines. Welcome to the forum, I'm sure you'll find it to be as informative as it is friendly.

Looks to be in great shape too...all good and thanks for sharing.

I've manually upgraded you to full forum access so hopefully you can now see everything and post into any topic you desire.
Any probs, please let either myself or a mod know!

All the best

Thanks for all the kind words guys!

I'll have her back on the road in no time if I can keep my wandering eye off those beautiful XJS's! Brakes and bushing coming soon.

Jim-Thanks, it seems to be all good now.
