PREFACE:

This car is truly for someone who is a JAGUAR Enthusiast and wants to either RESTORE a CLASSIC or just Part Out.

The car is truly a classic that will require a lot of work for restoration - With the right dedication, this car can be gorgeous. car actually turned over and ran last in 2012.  I drove it from SC to KY in 2008 and started it regularly until deployed to AFG - 2009.  

I purchased this car to one day completely Restore it - Well, based on current deployment and other obligations, I no longer have the time.

CAR FACTS:

Body:  Body is straight, never an accident.  Rust spots in several places, though all fixable.  Chrome is really excellent - probably the best thing about it.  Door locks need serious greasing.  Floorboard is in very good condition. 

Seats:  Front and rear seats are in good condition, though, the leather stain shows tremendous wear.  Rear seat has a small cigarette hole on left side.  

Trunk:  Very Clean.

Engine:  It turned over 2012 and was OK.  The car ran good, with transmission responding as normal.  The engine will not turn over now most likely due to a frozen starter. However, I really do not know.  Please note - This purchase falls under the "AS IS" policy. 

Dash Electronics:  I took out the dash and simply put it back in loosely, many connections still need to be made again.  I did this to replace the dash and fix the vacuum to the heating and  air-condition.  Air Condition is not connected.

The reason so much was taken out of the car was because I intended to completely restore the vehicle.  I have many new parts for the car, cannot mention all.  Also have custom mixed leather dye for the seats as well. 

Tires are Good - 1 front right tire has small leak - repairable.
Chrome Rims are Great, with two missing the Jaguar emblem and end cap.  Purchased those separately.

ALL EXTRA PARTS PURCHASED WITH CAR ARE YOURS

Good Bidding to All!

Ford reveals all-new Everest SUV at Asia-Pacific forum [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

While the Explorer may have shifted from a truck-based sport-ute to a car-based crossover, Ford still offers buyers on the other side of the Pacific a Ranger-based SUV in the form of the Everest. And at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in Beijing today, the Blue Oval revealed the all-new version you see here.
Previewed in concept form over a year ago and made specifically for the Asia-Pacific market, the new Ford Everest is designed to be more refined on the road and more capable off of it. Like the Explorer once was, the new Everest is based on a stretched version of the overseas Ford Ranger pickup. Depending on the specific market, Ford will offer the new Everest with a range of engines including a 2.0-liter EcoBoost turbo four and two Duratorq turbodiesels - a 2.2-liter four and a 3.2-liter inline-five - mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
Earmarked to take on the likes of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX) and the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the new Everest promises rock-crawlers even better off-road capabilities. It's got nearly nine inches of ground clearance, over 30 inches of wading depth, a 29-degree approach and 25-degree departure angles and a set of features including on-the-fly adjustable four-wheel drive.

Which is more fuel efficient, driving with a pickup's tailgate up or down?

Tue, 26 Aug 2014



Thanks to the smoke wand in the wind tunnel, you can actually see the difference in our video.
Should you drive with your pickup truck's tailgate up or down? It's an age-old controversy that's divided drivers for decades. Traditionalists will swear you should leave the tailgate down. Makes sense, right? It would seem to let the air flow more cleanly over the body and through the bed. But there's also a school of thought that argues trucks are designed to look and operate in a specific manner, and modern design techniques can help channel the airflow properly. So don't mess with all of that: Leave the tailgate up.

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.
