Default Excellent XJS YouTube channel.

Checkout the Camp Chaos Chronicles on YouTube. He races and restores the XJS. He has a whole series on a V12 engine rebuild, as well as troubleshooting a screwed up electrical system. And he’s not afraid to show his failures as well as his successes. He really needs some subscribers and views to encourage him to make more content.

Thank you very much for that.
Always searching Jaguar content on UTube, I thought I had seen it all.

How I missed this I have no idea.

Rust2Rome is another ....fwiw.

Unfortunately, as I recall, left hanging a bit at the end of MkX project, nevertheless, worth the watch.

Thanks for that, will check out both channels.

I've been watching 'Living with a classic' recently - some good videos on routine servicing for the xjs and V12 generally, worth a watch for anyone new to the car.

I took a look. Thanks for pointing them out. They're not messing around! In fact, the videography itself is strangely good..there must be a filmmaker in the family.

Thanks for the tip! I'm a huge XJS fan, and it's incredible to hear about a channel that covers the nitty-gritty of racing

Learning from both successes and failures is gold. I'll definitely check out Camp Chaos Chronicles and help spread the word. However, it would also help if he used instant YouTube subscribers for faster promotion. Anyway, thanks for sharing!

Bob is great. His XJS track car was built from a car headed to the crusher. It is an incredible build.

As with other responders....I really enjoy Bob Canote's (I may have misspelled that) Camp Chaos Chronicles and Adam's "Living with a Classic". Both are extremely informative, very experienced and give lots of great pointers.

Bob has responded to my questions directly as I use his clutch pedal fabrication videos (it's a two parter) to set up my clutch system for the 5-speed conversion I'm doing.
