1989 Jaguar XJS convertible,
56k,
5.7 LT1 Fuel Injected V8
1989 Jaguar XJS, 56k, 5.7 LT1 V8, 4 speed automatic transmission. Black leather interior, heated seats, new top and carpet three years ago and a brand new boot cover for when the top is down. I've got the Jaguar on my classic insurance for a valuation of $26, 000, full comprehensive for $186 a year. I've got a lot invested in this car since I had not planned on selling; finances and loss of storage force sale.
This conversion was done with a low mileage (approximately 40k) 1997 5.7 LT1 V8 rated at 310 HP and a four speed auto transmission with fuel saving overdrive. I have been told by mechanics and by Jaguar fans at car shows that it's one of the most professional Jaguar engine swaps they've seen. The acceleration and responsiveness of the fuel injected 5.7 V8 is impressive, adding improved reliability and low cost maintenance.
New valve cover / intake / oil pan gaskets, high performance MSD Optispark distributor, high output coil as well as headers and new dual exhaust system including resonators, the exhaust is quiet. Aftermarket high flow radiator, electric fans, the list goes on. A/C needs to be completed, compressor is on engine with belt but not hooked up. Recent work includes new brakes and rotors all around (rear brakes on a Jaguar of this era is over four hours of labor, very expensive), full tuneup, synthetic oil and four wheel alignment. As I mentioned the Jag only has 58k and feels like a new car.
I've also got a 1989 XJ12 coupe as well as a 1929 Mercedes Gazelle SSK replica, details below.
I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Jaguar is for sale locally.
I can assist with shipping in the USA or internationally if necessary, cost of shipping to paid by buyer. I can recommend a door to door auto shipper I've used in the past; they're professional, reliable and have great rates.
Any questions feel free to email or call 914-two two four-3230

1989 XJ12 coupe, V12, 28k original miles
It's identical to the convertible, red with black leather interior. The interior looks brand new, the car having extremely low miles. Overall, a nearly new 1989 XJ12, all stock down to the Jaguar radio. I haven't used the car much since getting the convertible so she should be gone through before daily driving. It hasn't been used regularly since I got the convertible and needs to be gone through before getting on the road (tires, belts, hoses), but starts easy and sounds great.
