Ebay item 9/27/15
www.ebay.com/itm/Jaguar-XJ12-Sedan-/161839107534
Opening bid $2,500, no reserve, no bids 6 days left in auction.

Sellers description:
I recently acquired this XJ12 that a friend had started as a project car couldn't finish. As I have little interest in continuing the project, I am merely looking to sell the car for what I paid for it. The odometer reading may be inaccurate because it's a conversion and I don't know how many miles are on the current engine.

So made the price to exactly what I've put into it.

8/11/2015 Purchase Price: $2398.33
8/20/2015 Mechanic Looked at car $25.00
9/07/2015 New Fuel Pump $20.70
9/11/2015 New Fuel Filter and Power Steering Fluid $11.42
9/11/2015 ASKING PRICE: $2500.00

9/7/15 Today we installed a brand new fuel pump and she runs! She's alive!
9/11/15 Replaced fuel filter topped off power steering. (She steers nicely now. I drove her up and down the drive way hoping to shake some spiders loose.)
9/21/15 Called Auto Club and gave them the VIN, they told me the car is Smog EXEMPT in the CA DMV system.

I've been told this car has a newly rebuilt transmission and starter, with what looks like a Chevy Edlebrock 350 V8. But I'm not a car guy so I'm not 100% on what makes it an Edlebrock or if it's just Edelbrock accessories. It still needs a lot of work but needs very little to make it a daily drivable car (most of it is interior cosmetic).

The body is in amazing condition and has not been in an accident but there are signs of rust.

She had the carburetor upgraded to be a hot-rod hood (original hood though) which gives this car tons of personality.

With this car, you're going to get a shit ton of parts and odds and ends. Here is a list of the things that will be coming with the car, from what I can piece together from invoices (one of them alone is for over $800 in parts) packing slips and good old fashioned understanding:

New (Used but pristine) Rear View Mirror
New (Used but pristine) Rear Door Open Rods and Clips left and Right Side
New (Used but pristine) Left Front Under Dash Trim
New Left Gas Tank
New Left Sender Unit
New (and Used) Tank Fittings
New 2 Infinity REF 5002ix Speakers
New 2 Kicker CS54 Speakers
Used Alpine CD Player
New Seat Belts (All Five)
New Shifter Knob (Wood)
Turn Indicator Mechanisms (Plastic Bag full of wires and levers)
Some Hyper Blue Led Lights (???) (In case you want to turn this classic into a early 2000's techno rave?)
Left/Right turn indicator Lever
Some on/off switch and wiring
Some black thing (particle board?)
Another black thing (plastic)
Mr. Gasket Easy Flow Air Cleaner (Installed)
Some electrical doohickey that looks like it might control the door locks
Chrome Polish
Plastic Bits
Air Cleaner Adapter and Riser Kit (Installed)
WD-40
New RainX Windshield Wipers
Gunk Glass Cleaner
Scott Pro Towels (Unopened)
TurtleĀ® Headlight Lens Restorer
399 Piece electrical kit with all sorts of cool shit like zip ties
Jaguar XJ12 Automotive Repair Manual
A grody Black thing
A plastic bag of screws
Seatbelt covers
Rotten Gas Pedal thing
assorted pieces of metal
Chrome Stereo Face thing
Jack Kit

The extras alone are worth over $1,000.

This is a fixer car, but has amazing potential especially with all the work already gone into it. It is currently not up to date on its registration but the title is in my possession, and the car has been recently registered NonOperational. It drives but it's not recommended for long distances at this point so having it towed will require a flat bed.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
