XKR in PA
Greetings!
I have been a Jaguar fan for a long time, and finally scored a 2000 XKR that was in need of engine work. After negotiating a ridiculous low price and towing it from its resting place in Willkes-Barre, PA, it is now going through major exploratory surgery to see what is wrong.
Recently retired from the financial services industry, I now have time to work with my hands again on some fun projects Having worked on cars since my early teens, racing Formula Ford in the 80's, and owning a number of sports cars, including Fiats, Alfas, and most recently a Porsche 914, I now get to move up to a true world class motor.
Outside of cars, I keep busy training and racing Sprint and Olympic distance triathlons, and adding to my bicycle collection. I have waaaay too many; ask my wife.
Cheers!
