Hello - I'm Ollie and I have 3 long term Jag projects on the go...

in date order,

67 ots xke which was wrecked in the 90's, a front end into the back axle of a truck. I have been accumulating parts to redo for well over a decade and am finally about to disassemble and put on rotisserie

73 xj6 regency red, black interior, in pretty good shape but will be repainting. About to put rear irs assembly back after rebuilding everything. Car has 3 SUs on a mark X manifold. I have a laycock deNormanville 4 speed overdrive I intend to put in it next

76 xj6c originally silver with the lighter blue interior I picked up from a closed down wrecking yard. Plan is to transpose 90's jag v12 and a 76 Jag manual box after a lot of bodywork, conversion to UK bumpers, delete sidelights etc

I'm English (from Coventry) but have lived in Northern California for over 26 years

Welcome to the forums, Ollie! I'm not far away from you, in Redwood Valley (near Ukiah). the XJC is one of my all-time favorite Jags but all yours are very cool. I'd love an XJC12, all painted (i.e. lose the bogus vinyl roof-cover). Good luck with all your projects!
