Description of 1987 Jaguar XJ6

Parts car or restoration? This 1987 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas was my daily driver until it would not pass the California smog test in 2010. With advice from the folks that did the smog test. I had replaced the Engine Control Module. Mass Airflow Sensor. Oxygen sensor. and several other things. to no avail. At this point. I was throwing lots of money at guesses. I wanted answers by deduction reasoning. not guesses. so I took the XJ6 to another smog test station and they found cylinder number one to only have 80 psi and the others averaging between 130 and 125 psi. They concluded that was the issue preventing passing the smog test. The car needs upholstery. interior wood trim refinished. new paint. a minor ding in the boot and a minor ding in the lower left rear quarter panel talked back into position. I have eleven project vehicles in the works. and not enough time left in my lifetime to complete even half of them. so I’m focusing on the ones I can get done. I’d like this Jag to go to someone who can get it back on the road or at the very least be able to use it for parts to keep their other Jags running. It has valid DMV documentation and currently registered as a PNO vehicle. so the Jag must be towed from my location.
