i cant think of aanything i would rather have less than a cabriolet, except possibly a facelift cabriolet, or possibly a 6cyl facelift cabriolet X(
that part made me lol the hardest.
"dont know what the exact problem is but do know that it can be repaired. does not need overhaul or new engine!"

I've got 3 usable 4.0 motors sitting in cars in my back yard.
look, its got a power bulge on the boot lid, as well as the bonnet. i often have that problem; too many power bulges.

I'm sorry fellows, You may have misunderstood me. If i had had the opportunity to buy an XJS convertable for a $1000 I would and i'd buy several more. $1000 cars usually have issues so it pays to have parts (which I've got). I own 11 Jaguars (2xMK10 7xXJ40 2xXJS - 2 cars are dedicated parts cars) and extra parts.

Evidently this guy's car has a tap arm. I was wondering myself how hard they are to fix, but evidently they're pretty easy according to him, and look how good of a mechanic he is!
I always called them valve seats? The seals would be the umbrellas or o-rings (depending on the car).

the valve seat would be the part of the head that the valve actually seals against. when you have a valve job done, they resurface this part of the head so that the valve seals properly and you get lots of compression back.
the seal would go around the base of the valve stem to keep oil from entering the head and smoking out the exhaust pipe.
unless im missreading your post and the valve seat is actually what drops. ive seen dropped valves, but i had no idea you could drop a valve seat.

people from cold areas, generaly dont but convertables or open top cars, but in sunny warmer climates they sell quite well.
thats the way its always been ,and will continue! just look at what movie stars drive.
and that OP car is well worth it, like said, probably get it for $1K. and drop in a V12,with a 700 trans.
just go to a car show and see how many open tops there,.
