1989 JAGUAR XJS 5.3 V12 **PROJECT/SPARES** SOLD

The time has come to sell my Jaguar XJS. I have owned the car for around 3 years, unfortunately last year the car was involved in an accident as you can see.
I was always intending to repair it, but instead bought another XJS and have decided I'm probably never going to get around to it.

The car has no MOT or Tax, and has been standing for around a year.
I should make it plain that the car will need to be trailered away.
The accident wasn't taken through the insurance so hasn't been subject to a claim.

The impact was to the O/ S/ F corner, I have taken lots of photos of the damage so you can see the parts that require replacement, these are:
O/ S/ F Wing
O/ S/ F Headlight (one lense at least)
Front Bumper (chrome is still pretty good)
2 x Front lower panels (below the headlights)
A few other bits around the front will require straightening out and realigning.
As well as the obvious the N/ S door will require realigning, as it has moved and damaged the rear wing slightly during the impact.
There is also an indent in the O/ S/ R floor where the car had grounded out previously.

The engine still runs very well, absolutely silky smooth.
Only two mechanical items to note are a small leak from the fuel tank and a blow from the exhaust.

The bodywork apart from the obvious damage is in lovely order, I believe the car had been completely resprayed shortly before I bought it.
The doors are practically completely free from rust, the bonnet is also in perfect order.
The buttresses are TOTALLY free from rust, rarity on these!!
It will need a small plate welded into the N/ S/ F arch, but that is all.
I have pictured all the rust around the bodywork, but on the whole it is very tidy indeed.

The interior is in good order, the rear seats, drivers door card and speedo are included but not fitted at present. I will get the interior put back together as soon as I have a moment!

The headlining has been removed due to the usual sagging issue.

The tyres will probably require replacement as they are all starting to perish but they do hold air.
