Professionally converted to a 350 Chevy V8 LT1 in 2012 - includes rebuilt engine, transmission, computer, car rewired, custom exhaust system, AC, new leather on front seats (back seats are perfect). Selling as I changed careers, will no longer work as a daily driver for my career as a Realtor (will trade for an equal value Chevy Tahoe) this car is beautiful! My mechanic who completed the conversion will answer any questions- I have all receipts - the engine has approximately 400 hp - the best part is since it's been rewired, this car comes without the electrical issues known to these cars. There are minor blemishes on the beautiful paint, and the convertible top (motor) is the only thing that is not working - it's a $1,000 repair -- I use the top manually. - buy with confidence - The engine and rebuild has 10,000 miles on it - while the car itself has 60,000 original miles on it. This was a $30,000 Professional conversion. If you are looking for your James Bond car - this is it! A real head-turner at a fraction of the cost - truly a classic that will bring lots of fun and enjoyment.
I will not accept any form of payment other than a wire transfer - NO EXCEPTIONS!
You may view the car near Conroe, Texas - make an appointment with me to see and drive it or it can be shipped to you.
I will consider a trade of a (equal value - EQUAL VALUE MEANS A $30,000 CHEVY TAHOE) Chevy Tahoe (nothing else will be considered)
DO NOT BID ON THIS CAR UNLESS YOU ARE SERIOUS AND YOU ARE A CASH BUYER - NO FINANCING, CASH ONLY
You may call me to ask questions - 832-419-4708 JON

New Jaguar crossover to be called 'XQ'?
Wed, 08 May 2013As part of its upcoming portfolio expansion, Jaguar will be adding two key models to its lineup in the next few years. The first is a small, 3 Series-fighting sedan tentatively called XS, and the other is said to be a new crossover, which may be dubbed XQ, as Edmunds reports. Jaguar filed a trademark application for the name "XQ" with the United States Patent and Trademark Office earlier this year, according to the report.
Jaguar executives have long said that the company is investigating new, higher-volume segments for the brand to compete in, and this certainly isn't the first time we've heard rumors of a CUV with a pouncing cat badge. Edmunds opines that since the Land Rover brand will no doubt continue to tackle the more traditional SUV segments, the Jaguar brand could easily house an offering in the luxury crossover market.
As for how a Jaguar CUV could come to fruition, Edmunds offers two suggestions. The first would be to build a vehicle on the smaller platform that will underpin the XS, as it will accommodate both rear- and all-wheel-drive applications and will be used for a number of differently sized vehicles. The second, more logical suggestion, is that the Jag CUV will ride on a version of the all-aluminum D7u platform used in the Land Rover Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.
Stolen Jaguar E-Type reunited with owner after 46 years
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Barely six months into owning it, Ivan Schneider had his Jaguar E-Type stolen from outside of his Manhattan apartment in 1968. Now, 46 years later, the somewhat beat-up convertible has been recovered just before it was about to be shipped to a new owner in The Netherlands.
US Customs agents at the Port of Los Angeles found the car during a routine check, and they contacted Schneider to arrange returning it to him. When the feds found it, the E-Type was already in a shipping container ready to go to its new owner. The condition is hardly perfect today, including rough paint and a replacement door, but Schneider is ecstatic to get his classic back.
Understandably, the now 82-year-old never thought he would see his droptop Jaguar again. Schneider told the LA Times that he bought the E-Type for $5,000 after winning a case as a lawyer, and it was originally painted gray. Now, he plans to have to have the vintage convertible restored to its former glory in New York.
Jeremy Clarkson's Jag going up for auction
Sun, 18 Aug 2013Fans of Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson might want to make plans to be in the UK next weekend. On August 24, Anglia Car Auctions in King's Lynn is auctioning off Clarkson's black 1999 Jaguar XJR as part of its classic sale. According to the auction house, the Jag was "originally the daily drive" of Clarkson and has had one registered owner since.
Clarkson's former ride clocks in at 93,000 miles and has an estimated price of 2,500 to 4,000 pounds. At roughly $3,300 to $5,300 in US dollars, that could be quite a steal for a hardcore Jeremy Clarkson fan. And with a supercharged 4.0-liter V8 engine and lavish interior, it's a luxury sport sedan lover's dream.
This isn't the first time Clarkson has crossed paths with Anglia Car Auctions. Back in 2009, he and fellow Top Gear stars James May and Richard Hammond made an appearance at another vintage auction to buy vehicles for a future segment of the show.
