Default Long time no see! My new barn find here.

BTW, I still have my '82 XJS and '62 MK2 project, but this I had to get.
'94 XJS 2+2, 6 liter, 57K miles and perfectly colored!









120 mile trip home

Mish_Mish,

Great car! Well done! Even with the bits of damage, it looks great!

Glad to see you back Michael, nice project.

What do you have in store for it.

I notice the front air dam is broken, there was a company that made fiberglass ones, or you could mold one yourself.....

Glad to see you mate!
I am thinking bright yellow, with some flames and nice bull horns on the hood!

Just kidding, all original, factory look, no moldings, or pinstripes, all perfect.
P.S. - new top just arrived!
P.P.S - check out my other british toy, while I was away...

She looks nice but I'm biased to that combo. I've got her baby sister. You can fix that spoiler and keep her more original.. Just have to get your hands a little dirty. Good luck!

My misfire was nowhere near as bad as that and it destroyed my RH catalytic converter. Good idea to get it fixed. This is what causes the Marelli rotor to fail.
