Hello all!

It's my first post here. Checking in from the Albany NY area.

I'm on the hunt for a Series 3 XJ6.

Currently, I'm poking around on this site and few others looking for tips I should be using to evaluate a prospective purchase. While I realize that a 30+ year old car is going to need some work and restoration, I also don't want to get stuck with a nightmare that someone else is looking to ditch.

I've been around the car hobby for a long time, but mostly with older (teens and 1920s) cars. Aside from my daily drivers, the newest car I own is a 1983 Bertone. I figure no matter how bad the build quality of a Jaguar may be, it must pale in comparison to what the Italians put together!
