Hi All,
I just bought myself a couple series 1 XJ6’s to build one nice car out of. One is a 1971 and the other is a 1973. I am putting the ’73 together because it is dent and rust free. It is a SBC 350 swap with aTH350 trans. I’m hoping you all will be able to help when I get stuck doing upgrades and repairs. I paid a thousand for the two cars but there are many close by for a few hundred so parts will not be hard to get. Looking forward to chatting with you all.

 

Hello, John,
Congratulations on acquisition of the Most Beautiful and Recognizable of Jaguars, the Xj6!
Everyone who sees one knows Instantly and Instinctively, That is a Jaguar!!

I'll look for you over in our playpen:

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

Thanks, no one sees the car for what it will be, they came to my house on my trailer and they really looked bad. My wife and brother looked at them and asked "What in the world are you going to do with them". I've rebuilt the engine and reupholstered the interior and am now working on cosmetics. Now my wife wants to drive it and my brother tells everyone about what I'm doing to it. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. My plan is to make a corvette killing sleeper out of this car. If I can get the fuel to flow forward from the tanks.

 

Welcome.

 

Welcome aboard.
