Default Surrounded by Jaguars

Hi folks, I'm an ASE master technician that just landed a job maintaining and restoring a small fleet of Jaguars.

I did some restoration work back in the 80's and enjoyed it so I'm trying it again.

I still haven't completed an inventory of the vehicles I will be working own so I will list a few.....1959 Mark II, 1952 Mark VIII, 1960 Mark II, 1972 XJ6, 1976 XJ12C (2dr) and 3 more I haven't had a chance to look at.

I'm hoping to pick some brains when I need help. Perhaps I can offer help to anyone with concerns with there grocery getters (domestic stock) I have 35 years under my belt in this area.

Hope to converse soon.
