macudc, I would give Brandywine auto parts a call. I know they have some Jags sitting in their yard. Exactly how many XJS' that they may have is hard to say. Their European yard as I recall is over on the southeast side of DC off of Route 5/301. Give them a call and see what they say. After that, not sure what other yards may have a selection of XJS stuff.

The inventory rotates through pretty quickly, as they recycle most of the cars that end up in the yards (read crush them and send them off as scrap), but the Crazy Rays chain of auto salvage yards in Maryland can't be beat on price for parts and variety of cars. I frequent the Elkridge and Mt. Airy yards with some regularity, always on the lookout for Jaguars that may yield some useful parts. Always seem to be sedans of the 'X' variety, but not anything too exotic. You pay $1.00 to enter the yard, bring your own tools, pull the parts you want, and pay on your way out. They used to publish a parts price list on their website (www.crazyraysautoparts.com), but I'm not sure they're still doing that. Look 'em up and give one of their yards a visit. You won't be disappointed.
You might give the DC area Craigslist a look-see also. I think there's a guy in the Gaithersburg vicinity that has some XJS pieces and parts for sale fairly reasonably priced.
