Well cared for and much loved Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas
Silver Sand exterior , Magnolia interior
Quite frankly, the car has been babied. Hand washed always, has never been driven in the winter and always garaged. The car is accident free. (I have the carfax)
I’m a former mechanic and have spent the last several years caring for this wonderful car. In 2007 I replaced the Jaguar engine and transmission with a Chevy V8.
Originally a California car, the odometer reads 71,898. The engine and transmission were replaced by me in 2007 when the odometer read 62,512 miles. So the engine and transmission have 9386 miles on them over the past 6 years averaging 1565 miles per year.
I’ve invested the following:
350 V8 Crate Engine (built by Phoenix Engines) with TH350 Transmission.
Fast EZ EFI fuel Injection
March Performance Revolver Series Serpentine belt system
New radiator and custom shroud
New Wilston Wool Black Carpet and closed cell foam padding
New Headliner
New front seat Cushions
Leather Re-Dyed
Lizard Skin Ceramic sound and heat insulation applied to cabin
New imported Walnut Burl wood
Grant wood Steering Wheel
Upper and lower ball joints, sway bushings/ links, tie rods, suspension control arm bushings 2012
New Shocks, front and rear 2012
New Rear Springs 2012
Front end alignment
Front mufflers and dual catalytic converters.
Motor mounts.
Updated Jaguar 16” Wheels and Michelin Cruising tires. Still have original Kent wheels that are included in the sale, as are most if not all rubber seals (doors, windscreens, etc.), Jaguar manuals, Jaguar dealership wiring diagrams.
Don’t let all the chrome fool you, this is not a hot rod. It is and can be used as a daily driver and should provide you years of enjoyment. I have far more invested in this car than I will ever see in return. Having said that, I’m not interested in being low balled. Serious buyers only please. I don’t need to sell her. Call for a test drive – before the snow flies.
A word about the carfax - there are discrepancies in the mileage when it was a CA owned car. I can't be sure of the mileage on the body.
