Description of 1969 Jaguar XK |
Best of both worlds. The stunning beauty of a XKE with reliability and performance of a Ford. EXTERIOR: Striking good looks. This is one of the most attractive sports car designs, it is considered rolling artwork. Add to it those polished aluminum wheels with spinners and wow! The body appears to be in excellent shape. I'm looking all around it- down both sides, across every panel it is straight. I don't see any signs of damage- no door dings, no rust. The paint has a smooth, glossy finish. The chrome looks like it's in very good original condition. The rear bumper is re-chromed. The glass has a soft tint. INTERIOR: Beautiful condition inside. The seats and headrests are redone in the correct leather upholstery. The center armrest cushion and console are reupholstered in leather. The carpets look new- correctly cut, has bound edges. Dash pad is recovered. It has all the original Jaguar cockpit style instrumentation and toggle switches. Original wood grain steering wheel. It does have an upgraded stereo and speakers. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: What a major improvement. It has a Ford 302 performance built motor. Upgrades include Offenhauser intake with a dual feed Holly carb, HEI ignition and headers. Dressed up with a set of vintage finned aluminum valve covers and custom air cleaner cover. Very recently tuned up, has Ford racing plug wires and new plugs. The carb was rebuilt. The air conditioning system was serviced and is blowing cold. It has twin electric fans on the radiator to keep the car running cool. TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The rear hatch opens up with a chrome handle inside. It is all carpeted and trimmed out meticulously. One of the original wire wheels is underneath the floorboard. UNDERSIDE: Appears to be solid. It has the famous Jag rear end with independent suspension, inboard disc brakes and 4 coil over shocks. Upfront the suspension looks like it has new bushings, shocks and rubber boots. It has disc brakes too. This car will certainly turn heads. There isn't another one like it. It is exciting to drive too! I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now.
