All numbers matching, original paperwork, original everything.  Sold new in Memphis to Bobby Allison, Jr. and registered in Arkansas. I am the third owner.  It has always been a garage kept Southern car and has excellent original paint and chrome. I purchased this car with 30,000 miles locally in Louisiana.  Services since my purchase include:  new fuel lines, front suspension bushings, bearings, tie-rod ends, ball joints, and complete change-outs of gaskets, o-rings, timing chain, etc.  Basically, anything any 80's car requires for modern, maintenance-free driving. It's a really well documented and complete car, that runs and drives as new.


Details of any cosmetic faults are shown in the pictures.  There is no rust. It was always a non smoker car.  There has never been any body work done on this car.  The left channel of the original cassette deck doesn't work.  The interior head liner needs attention. The AC does not work.  My cat scratched the back seat.  It has been my daily driver for the last year.

Grades:  Outside A-, Inside B, Mechanical A, AC System F.  A stunning car that is the top 90 percentile of it's class, even with no AC (which if you research, doesn't work so well, even when it's working great.)  

I am retiring and can no longer afford a third car in a two car family.   I recently removed my Buy It Now, and significantly lowered the reserve.  This car will sell, and the person buying it will be getting a good deal.

Audi, Jag, Kia and Tesla top Strategic Vision 2014 Total Quality Index

Sun, 06 Jul 2014

A couple weeks ago, J.D. Power released its latest Initial Quality Study, which gave high marks to Porsche, Hyundai and General Motors, with the latter earning more individual IQS awards than any other manufacturer. Now, it's Strategic Vision's turn, and it's doling out its praise not to Porsche, but to Tesla, which wasn't even included in the JD Power IQS.
The Model S was named the best vehicle overall in total quality, while Porsche's corporate brother and endurance-racing rival, Audi, was named the best premium brand, alongside Jaguar. Strategic Vision cited the Q5 and the ancient Q7 for individual segment awards, as well as the A5, which was a mere point off the top of its segment. SV also handed out compliments for the Audi's interior work. The win for the German brand is a nice improvement over its IQS score, with which it landed above the industry average, but solidly mid-pack.
Jaguar was without a segment winner, although SV did say that the Indian-owned English brand had a number of vehicles very near the top of their segments. This is the second significant win for Jag in two weeks, after it finished second overall on the JD Power IQS a few weeks ago.

Jaguar 3 Series-fighter to spawn coupe, wagon

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

With its sights set on the BMW 3 Series, Jaguar could be planning a full range of models for its upcoming entry-level car - possibly called the XS. We've already seen spy shots of the four-door version of this all-aluminum baby Jag, but according to Auto Express, the automaker will also offer the car in coupe and wagon variants.
The XS sedan should hit the market in 2015, and the coupe and wagon models are expected soon after that. Speaking with Jag's global brand director Adrian Hallmark, AE says that the XS will be focused on styling with a design similar to the recently introduced C-X17 crossover concept. Hallmark also said that the addition of the XS lineup could help Jaguar double its sales, which were at 357,773 global units in 2012. Head on over to Auto Express for some speculative renderings of the XS coupe and wagon.
