Jaguar XJ6C Coupe 2 Dr Short Wheel Base

Description

Ultra rare Jaguar XJ6C short wheelbase pillar-less coupe! They only made 4000 of these babies and this is one of just a handful on the road.
Made from 1975 to 1977. This fine red car was restored in 2003 from a good sound body. It was garaged before AND AFTER restoration.

Quick video of the engine running may be seen here:https://youtu.be/WIvZV_afCx4

NEW biscuit connolly leather Jaguar hide seats - looks like it rolled out of Coventry yesterday.
Rare bright Jaguar red. Original black vinyl roof. The car is 98% original - right down to the jaguar hubcaps and the original jack in the trunk.
New electronic fuel pump. Purrs like a cat!
These are hard to find, and when you do - they've been messed around with.
If you were to refinish the walnut (They sell the panels on eBay for $350) - it could be a show winner!
Smooth 6 cylinder engine straight out of the race bred XKE-Type and the finest walnut burr veneers, Wilton carpets and British leather.
I've had my bodyshop go over the vehicle and this is a very solid car. The leather seats are immaculate. The engine is quiet and moves through the automatic transmission beautifully.
I've updated the photos with an underside inspection - based on some buyer's interest in the car (and it's unibody construction.) Original under-seal is evident. No holes! No structural damage - this is a very dry car that was always garaged.
• New brake rotors, calipers, pads and hoses (front)
• New inboard brake pads and disks (rear)
• New Gas-A-Just shock absorbers (front)
• New automatic transmission with torque converter
Frame and floorpans are 100%. Even where the undersea has chipped off - there is only light surface rust.
The rear valance panel has some scratches between the exhausts, the power steering belt has a slight squeak on full lock. Overall - amazing bones for a 43 year old car. The carpet shows some wear - but there are a host of suppliers stocking the Wilton footwell carpets
Press the gas and she takes off way faster than an injection XJ6. Twin Strombergs make a great sucking noise. Just add a little choke on a cold start and this XJ straight 6 will run all day.
This is one of just a few hundred with this striking color combination.
A great investment - destined to double or triple in value with careful stewardship.
Starts with one turn of the key and evokes the "space, grace and pace" that made Jaguar one of the greatest British luxury marques.
Walk around of the vehicle will be posted shortly.
Remember that you are bidding to buy the car. Not inspect it. So check with your wife.
