Default XJ6C Parts Sourcing?

Hey guys, I just acquired a 75 XJ coupe that was a restoration that the previous owner bailed on. I'm getting ready for final assembly, but it appears that the paint shop might have lost some trim pieces and possibly the rear glass. Is there any good source for these cars other than crossing my fingers and scouting boneyards? I've done a little searching around but I figured you guys would have the best answer. Thanks in advance!

The rear glass is not unique to coupes, the sedan rear glass is the same. Most of the the trim is unique to the coupe though.

in any case...I have two coupe parts cars. One is mostly complete with fist size rust holes. , one is a shell with good mostly good metal. PM me and I will send you my phone number. Also David from everyday XJ has a coupe for parts last time I spoke to him.

Thank you, I was not sure whether sedan glass would work or not. I'm currently taking inventory on what is there and what is not. Hopefully there are not too many pieces missing.

Try Paul's Jaguar in Florida - their specialty is the XJC.

Great, thank you. The paint and interior turned out really really well. The car is going to be beautiful once I can get everything sourced and assembled. I'll post up some pictures once I start putting it all back together.
