You got more nerve than me and I think you may be needing it before you are through.

Vehicle Description


1974 Jaguar XKE
Clean title, V12, Convertable
Located in southern Indiana about 65 miles south of Indianapolis

Car was in a house fire, the engine turns over with the starter, it has oil and antifreeze still in it.

I already purchased an engine hose kit (complete) online for about 90 bucks.
it is available too.

I have an xj12 for parts too...it has another motor and a rear end etc. cheap (995 complete)to buyer of this XKE

the bonnet is usable, the doors are usable, obviously, this car needs a complete restoration,
the wiring is gone, the glass is gone, the chrome around the doors and windshield is heat damaged or melted.
I have saved every bolt nut and piece of re- chromable trim
the car was previously rust free around the usual trouble spots ( considering the age )
I have everything including the top frame ( it is bent, photos avail)
