Jag make over ready for Gibraltar rally. This car was rescued from scrap yard !
|
Good evening! I am very interested to learn about this rally. Is it a banger rally? I live in Gibraltar but have a breakers in La Linea. Last year we had the Gib or Bust rally here and for those who didn't want to drive back bought a lot of the cars for scrap. We even had an S Type with a full golf course ensemble on the roof: astroturf, clubs, flag and balls!!
Let me know. If nothing else it would be nice to show you my old XJ6 and get a photo with your car!! All the best Sam. |
Great to hear from you, we need a contact in Gib. Some of the guys are going to try and sell / scrap their cars, including a couple of Jags.
|
Looking good.
With that leaper out front, leading the way, what could possibly go wrong?????? Have fun, and good luck. |
Good luck.
I'll have been down there and back home by the time you leave. Graham |
Hi Stuart thanks, happy to help. Received your PM and have just emailed you.
Talk soon Sam. |
Stu if the car goes to scrap may I please have the spoiler from the rear deck? :icon_lolsign:
Sounds like an incredible journey. Safe travels. |
Any ideas of the spoiler manufacture ?
Kinda works for me if modified a bit shorter and detachable without bolting on to the rear quarter panel or rear boot |
Good old e bay, it clamps around boot lid but will damage your paint work. Looks good though.

see the inside portion of the up arms use a threaded barrel nut with a Philips head screw on the outboard side gives the option of inserting your own up arms of shorter height
The 3 trunk lid clamp screws can have stainless steal strips with protective rubber to not harm the trunk lid paint Maybe even cut down the original up arm metal https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...5c21c0cbe0.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...12833be2af.jpg I |

Well done :)
How have you found the drive in the Jag? |
Drive has been amazing, car hasn’t missed a beat. Super comfortable, ok on fuel for what she is. I am home now and brother is driving her back.

Well done Stuart and for a very worthy cause as well. Hopefully you'll keep the car on the road once she gets home again - few mods of course to put her back to normal!! Enjoyed the FB live updates looks like you all had a blast which is what its all about!!

The dual carriageway round to the Rock isn't usually that clear of traffic!
