Hello all I was curious if anyone has a list of Jaguar salvage yards. I live in (USA) Northeast Arkansas, about 100 miles from Memphis Tn. and a couple hundred miles is not a problem. I just can't seem to find anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Jack

 

Good luck in finding one that specializes in Jaguars. Most in my area (Western Arkansas) just send them to the scrapper as there is not much call for them. You are close to a lot of larger cities and you might find a salvage yard that's on their "Net" and they can check and see what's available.

 

This is the only Jaguar-specific salvage yard I know of....

Jaguar parts from the original Jaguar Heaven! Jaguar parts for classic to current models..

....but there surely must be others

Cheers

Everyday XJ in NC.

Ouch, that hurt. The DOHC in my 83 met it's demise within blocks of that place. It might well have ended there. It was after closing time, so, it and I went home via flat bed....


HAPPY HOLDAYS TO ALL

There is a Jaguar parts business in Jacksonville, Fl. They are on eBay (Classiccargarage1). The point of contact is Leroy. His email address is: Parts@classiccargarage.net . They were in NC and relocated to Fl. The son has taken over the business. I have bought XJS parts from him, as well as from (David) JustXJ in NC. David doesn't carry XJS parts, but has a large inventory of Jaguar models.

 

David (everydayxj) DOES carry XJS parts. I've gotten an ECU, TPS and a/c module from him as well as several other parts.

 

With great service and fair prices, too!

I feel a bit bad that I didn't mention his name in my first reply. I've bought lots of stuff from him but somehow I didn't think of him as a 'salvage yard'. Silly me.

Great guy to do business with

I'll second and third that.....none better in our world (XJ/XJS) to do buisness with. Always a pleasure and more then reasonable pricing. I email him first before I search anywhere else.

 

I have done a lot of business with both, and while I prefer working with David since he is such a nice guy, LeRoy is ok too but much tougher on price. David will always give you the best price. (LeRoy wouldn't take a cent less than $400 for a facelift trip computer, and David said he would sell me one for $50 if he had it in stock.)

I further break them down like this. If you need pre-facelift parts David is the man. He has almost no facelift parts though.

LeRoy is the opposite. He only deals with facelift Jags.

As a side note, LeRoy tells me he is in negotiations to purchase Paul's Jaguar in Ft. Lauderdale. I would miss Jeremy though, he is great to work with also, but they have limited parts.

 

i bought a steering U-joint shaft from a yard close to OKC,Oklahoma city.

very cheap $25. plus freight, cant remember who, just googled ,wants and phone # came up.

 

Look on Row52.com and do a search there. It will list yards that have their inventory online (not all do) and you can change the search distance.

Other place to search is www.car-part.com

 

I'm surprised that Coventry West is not listed as a source for used Jag parts.
They are located in the Atlanta, Ga area. East of Stone Mountain about 20 miles.
Their website covers all Jaguars and Land Rovers.

Thanks for the referrals guys... I appreciate it!
True the Facelift XJS has been a tough one for me to source for prices that I can afford to charge "EverydayXJ" prices on... I have had some parts for them through dealer and shop closeouts that I've made...
I do still have a decent selection of prefacelift XJS parts, and most everything for the early XJ6.... I'm also gravitating to the X300, as that's what's currently in our garage..

Cheers!

Jaguar Heaven, Stockton, CA is my go to supplier for used parts. Bill and Daniel are always helpful.

 

Seems like everything is pretty far away and shipping will just about kill you. Sounds like it would be a good time to open a Jaguar only Salvage yard in the Central USA. Now, anybody interested in making a "Really Large" LOAN??? Er Investment??? LOL. That's the only thing holding me back!
