Ah, that's why I didn't see you in the entrance list, you were working!
A good friend of mine was the one driving the BMW 135 that took on the powerpole :( |

Shaaaaaawing
That's the prettiest Jaguar on the whole block I don't know if you thought about the 20 year old clearcoat on the wheels but it can be removed to bare metal with 1 pint of aircraft quality paint stripper for all 5 at the auto parts store This after I tried polishing the original old clearcoat that has aged You can try the spare tire The paint stripper will not harm the tire so no removal and washes off with dishsoap and water https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...b15082946f.jpg |
I hope to have some new eye candy to add here this time next week. Figures that it's been the very rare state of rain less for a week+ here. But as the paint stage moves into the final stage, the pollen war & storms are starting to form lol.

All of these photos have got me all excited about bringing my 2003 XJR-R1 out of storage again. I should be exposing it to the light of day in about a week, then a quick cut, polish and wax, some vacuuming and general Interior clean-up and the Leaping Lady is back on the road. Its a great car in British Racing Green with the Bone Leather interior and it only has about 60,000 kms on it. I plan on using it a lot more this year.
And just as a hint, some horrible old cell phone shots of the car. Eric https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...225bdc6eea.jpg |
Not the greatest photos I've ever taken, but they're feeling very sexy because after about 10 weeks straight of ice, snow, slush and salty brine on the roads in Michigan, spring seems to finally be on its way. So my '99 Vanden Plas Supercharged finally emerged from its longest-ever winter slumber this week.
We're back on the road! https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...2ede953d12.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...990486324a.jpg |

https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...bb9f4a1be9.jpg Looks damned good! https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...fbb547f30c.gif |
That's a beautiful car Patioboater! Very elegant looking.
These pictures are actually kind of lame because the light is coming from the wrong side; the car actually looks glossy and shines better than the picture. But, I had a great day off today where I took the XJR out of the garage and drove to the range for a little target shooting. Just what I needed to unwind after a long work week. Despite the low picture quality I wanted to share what a nice "X308" related day I had. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...bdd4463bc9.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...654f31df46.jpg |

It's been raining, hailing, blowing, thundering and lightning here for the past week or so and the Jag has been stuck in the garage. I backed it out just a little so I could get to my white board while I worked out on the weights in the garage, and I thought the light caught it just right to show off the wonderful front end lines of the hood and grill. These Jaguar lines are absolutely classic, and they should never have got rid of them. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.jag...6ef7116106.jpg |
Your Carnival Red car is one of the prettiest Jaguars I've ever seen. My favorite colors for an X308 (in order of preference) are 1) Carnival Red 2) BRG 3) Dark/Navy blue (don't know the Jaguar color) and 4) White.
When I was shopping for an XJR the most important quality of course was condition; how much has it been loved. Second priority was color. I found Carnival Red and BRG XJRs but none of them were in nearly the condition of the white one so that's the one I bought. I've always liked white cars in general and have owned several including a Silverado and an Acura. One thing about white X308s though, they look better in person than they do in pictures. |
These are all nice pics, cause they are simply beautiful cars with beautiful lines.
Now wait for KC, soon to blow us all away with his restored one :icon_dopey: Really want me to take my vdp out of storage for a while. |

I've also spoken w/ a local guy who does woodwork in high end yachts for a well known local company Hatteras Yachts & he would be glad to have a look @ my wood & see if it's something he'd like to take on. It's surely coming together ! But these cars' are indeed works of art w/ the lines & the cohesiveness it has w/ lighting. |
