Default New owner 1987 xjs coupe 58K

Bought a 1987 xjs coupe with 58k. Havn't even got it home yet. It isn't running but the body is great, and the price was right ($1500). Getting it on a flatbed and brought home tomorrow. Dist. cap is broken in half. Taking a little gamble. Will be glad to hear it running.

Will be in touch I'm sure!

Bill.

Hey Bill:

Thanks for joining and welcome to the forum! It will be fun to see this car get running. Best of luck on the work that is ahead of you. Should be well worth it when you're cruising down the road at 70.
cheers,
Scott

Default Forum is a great resource

Thanks for the welcome. I have been interested for years in getting an XJS. I've heard every horror story there is but still wanted one. I have looked on the forum a lot before buying and realize what a great resource it is.

Thanks again.

The car should show up today.

Regards,

Bill.
