Vehicle Description

This is a 1969 Jaguar XJ with a chevy 350 v8 mated to the original automatic transmission. I drove it for years here in New Orleans. in 2020 I parked it with electrical issues and it sat for a few years! Now the motor won't turn over, the wiring is a mess, and the brakes ( original jag inboards on the rear axel ) are rough. I am moving on to another ratrod project & this one has to go!! If you are feeling brave enough, this thing is a straightforward ratrod project & will bring this amazing car back to life! The exterior is a grey pickup truck bedliner finish, and looks like cinderblock. If you are looking for a parts car for an xj6 build, there is a great '69 black leather interior, lots of original switches & dials, great glass, etc etc. yes, there is a hoodscoop hole cut into the hood, and the "blower" is just an air intake with a mechanical opener attached to a good edelbrock carb setup.
