Welcome Silver! I'm looking forward to seeing you post updates on this! I found one just like that in a junkyard a couple months ago, but it was beyond rescue.

Dude! That's awesome! Some of that rust looks hideous, though. I'd love to have a fully restored Jag like that, but I just don't have the patience to do it myself.

Fantastic! Love to see beautiful cars restored, I've saved alot worse than what I see in your pictures. Just takes time, elbow grease and love. Good Luck.

Hello and welcome to jaguarforums.com. I know that you are anxious to get started and we are anxious to meet you and talk about your car. We have a baseline / criteria that must be met before full access can be granted. Please enjoy the forum and be patient once the baseline has been satisfied full access will be granted.

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.
