Hey all, im completely new to owning a British car, but Ive had my series III for about 3 weeks now and I love it. Chassis has about 275K on it but has a newish 350w/summit racing 4 barrel carb backed by a th350 and a 12bolt posi rear end. Not sure what the gears are. But she will certainly throw down when I need it to haha. The out side is in great shape, has had a paint job in her past but th e interior is in decent shape some rips in the leather where the stitching is but not bad. If I can get any tips an tricks to her last on the road longer by all means let me know.

Converts are cool and have their place in Jaguar motoring history. Done right...they are a joy to own and drive. I like the nod to the bow tie in the front blinkers.

As for keeping it on the road... as with any car of this age...beware of rust.
