British racing green
99,909 miles when bought, about 10 more since then. Performed minor cosmetic refresh, cleaned up, mechanically sorted, now making short drives around the neighborhood to test the resolve of 50+ year old British equipment. That 3.8 liter inline 6 sounds …
Absolutely in love with this car but family issues are forcing us to part ways. Five liter V8, 11.5:1 compression equal 385hp and 380ft/lb of torque. This thing is a blast!
Timing chain tensioners let go.
Long wheelbase XJ6 with 1975 350 Chevrolet truck 4bbl motor, auto trans. Purchased from former student, now working on finishing interior refresh, suspension replacements, and tuneup for minor daily driver status.
Neat old car bought and painted in the late 80s
Mina exhaust, Pilot Super Sports 20” X 9”F 265-30-20, 20” X 11” R 305-25-20.
All the insides of a Vanden-Plas (English parlor on wheels: 4400 lbs of leather and wood), all the engine of an XJR (4.2 V8 Supercharged: 400hp, 415tq, supposedly)
