Default "New" 1990 XJS convertible on craigslist needs kiss of life.

Hi Guys,

Good one here, for you Florida guys :-

https://keys.craigslist.org/cto/4676107533.html

Anyone close enough to go look...see what is what, to bring back to life?

Spoke with the gentleman...not road worthy...brakes....motor would run hot if he let it...thinks its a "frozen" water pump.

To far for me to look see and up to $1400 to trailer it....prob up to $2000 in new parts....getting a little over our cash limit.

Per the link I'd say it's in the keys. Ad is down - probably sold!

the ultimate rust buckets come out of the FL.keys, salt water and moisture both sides of the islands, if it dont come from one way it comes from the other.

especially if the cars has set for some time, even seen them hauled out of salt water.
