1977 JAGUAR XJ6C six cylinder dohc with triple SU carb set up. Very good power and driveability. shifts well and handles well. tight suspension. power steering is tight/new bushings, without play or wear. good breaking. fuel system is clean and functioning without issue. the change over from stromberg to SU carbs has increased the performance and makes the car a pleasure to drive. I have owned other 70s jags with the restrictive Strombergs and there is no comparison. Many collectors choose the 12 cylinder coupes over the standard six 4.2 with strombergs, but this conversion makes this a close comparison for engine power.
*HD8 2" CARBS sourced from a 1966 3.8s type. 290 hp.TWM induction horns/K&M filters.
The body is well preserved being a west coast car up until last year. Undercarriage is solid with strong floor pans and radius arm mounting points. Trunk area is solid and tidy. no accidents or dents. straight and tight car.
Paint is presentable. good chrome and recent top. Leather interior is clean and overall very presentable. good dash wood and door panels,recent new carpet and headliner. wheels are from a 97 xj 16"/255S and fill out the wheel wells adding a much nicer ride than the stock rims and tires which are available if desired instead.
* I do have all of the original stock manifold and carb components for retro fitting if your state requires stricter emissions. most states would exempt this model year. california will not.
Completely functioning lights,signal switches.power windows,heat and defrost&wipers. ac will need charge.
This is a currently running and totally road worthy car which is garage kept and avoids bad weather.
rebuilt engine head 15k miles ago along with rebuilt transmission at that time.
runs cool with good oil pressure.
Please contact me via ebay for any questions, and I will be happy to answer.Not the usual sluggish xj6c. ready to drive and enjoy.

Jaguar's first-ever Super Bowl ad to feature F-Type Coupe
Sun, 10 Nov 2013Patrons of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show will be able to get their first glimpse at the new Jaguar F-Type Coupe, but the new hardtop sports car will be shown off to an even greater audience in early February. No, we aren't talking about the Chicago Auto Show - we're referring to the Super Bowl. Jaguar will debut its first-ever Super Bowl ad during the second half of the big game on February 2, 2014, and the sleek new F-Type Coupe will be the star.
According to Jaguar, the ad campaign will pose the question, "Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?" And for all you social media mavens out there, Jaguar will launch a specific hashtag to go with this marketing: #GoodToBeBad.
British director Tom Hooper is responsible for the ad, which is being filmed in London. Americans will get their first glimpse at the campaign this weekend in the first spot, called Disruptor, but the big F-Type Coupe spot will not air until Super Bowl XLVIII in February.
Petrolicious profiles one of the final Jaguar E-Types
Wed, 10 Apr 2013There's no question that David Paddison has got a very lovely 1974 Jaguar E-Type convertible. The rubber bumpers of this late E-Type may distract ever so slightly from the purity of the lines, but that doesn't mean we're still not completely jealous of the latest Petrolicious subject car.
As usual, the team of vintage car videographers has done a fine job capturing a small moment of gear-headness with this latest installment - The Last of the Breed. We do wonder why we don't get to hear a little bit more of that famed Jaguar V12 rumble, however. There's just a whiff of engine and exhaust sound in the middle of the video, while the rest of the piece sounds like it was scored by Amy Grant's rhythm guitarist. See for yourself, below.
Jaguar F-Type Project 7 takes the D-Type to the 21st Century
Sat, 16 Aug 2014One of the many big name debuts during the 2014 Monterey car week is this, the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, a stunning roadster inspired by Jaguar's legendary, finned D-Type sports car.
The Project 7 expands on the already appealing F-Type Convertible formula, further boosting the Jaguar Land Rover 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 to its most potent form yet - 575 horsepower - making this the most powerful production Jag in history. So equipped, the Project 7 is more cheetah than jaguar, roaring to 60 miles per hour in a rapid 3.8 seconds before reaching its electronically limited peak speed of 186 miles per hour.
Prices for the F-Type Project 7 start at $165,000, with customer deliveries slated begin in spring of 2015.
