I'm starting out on a 1969 XJ6 with a 400ci GM engine and the original Borg-Warner 3sp. manual transmission. I am sketchy on details right now because I have not actually made the deal and haven't crawled under it yet, but it is mine if I decide to get it. The present owner started restoring it, and according to him, the car runs and drives. I have seen the paint and it is in good condition except for one door where the paint has peeled. The interior is wrecked although the seats have been re-upholstered. One thing it needs for certain is a rear bumper. I have a quote from a place in the UK for almost $1000.00 for all three pieces of the bumper, but was hoping to get it (and other parts) cheaper than having them shipped across the pond. I have been cruising the net for a while for XJ6 S1 parts, but have largely come up empty. Are there any good suggestions here? I am going to have another look at the car this weekend and need to let this guy know if we are going to make the deal.

Thanks in Advance.

 

Thanks much! I'll give them a holler.
