I do a lot of scrap metal and parting out cars and playing with cars. One of the people I buy a lot of cars from, got me this Xj40 for $250. It has a blown motor, the back two doors don't work and the previous owner was a hoarder. So it smells like old fast food and mold inside right now. My quick glance over the car shows it has a lot of new parts in it, and I'm guessing a rod snapped or bearing let go, with where the hole in the block is. I'll be posting a few pics in the XJ40 section.

 

Welcome to the forum Ryan,

Good to have you with us.
That sounds like a challenge.
Enjoy the forum.
Ryan I've moved your thread into the XJ40 area

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

 

Welcome to this friendly Forum, I see Norri's moved your post to the right section for your car - from what you say you'll need all the help you can get!

 

Welcome to the forum Ryan,

Going to be a long weekend getting that sorted.

Looking forward to the pics and following your progress.

Enjoy the forum.

Welcome, Ryansmagic! Mmmm - the smell of moldy fast food. $250's a great deal and I'm sure the car is worth rebuilding. Maybe a running slide show would be in order for this one.
