Beautiful. Fantastic car. We've read about it and now to see the finished product. Driving videos in the northeast are a challenge. You and your car deserve some deserted twisty curvy country roads.

Hey, Thanks for the interest. The 2020 Coupe... A V12 coupe with Manual T56 has been started. I was working on it yesterday, It's got a long way to go becasue it's being done at a higher level.

The 2015 Coupe is getting a new engine. LS or AJ16 Turbo.... I'm undecided at the moment but leaning AJ. I have two other LS powered cars and third is a bit redundant.

I generally no longer post my projects on line, for various reasons. If I do post stuff... it will be on youtube and I'll post a link here at some point.

All my projects Jaguar and otherwise are on slo-mo at the moment. I'm an IT professional and the pre-covid boom and the post Covid general push to remote work and the setup and security related to that has been keeping me very busy. I also had 2 other cars fall in my lap somewhat unscheduled. A Porsche 928 and a Jaguar XJS with XJ6R engine. Both very neglected and in need many things to set them right.

Default She's Baaaaaack

The 2017 Coupe is back in my possession temporarily for a AJ16R and 5 speed conversion.

A few notable features are a dedicated and separate high capacity cooling loop for the intercooler
Upgraded A/C system
Extensive suspension upgrades, It's going from Cruiser to Miata fighter.
Rear IRS bracing
Engine retiming to extend the useable RPM range.


Aj16 with new Tremec TKX

In and out from the bottom.
