Ebay item 7/13/13
cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-JAGUAR-XJS-5-3L-V12-COUPE-/330955579599
Opening bid $12,999.95 reserve not met, no bids 6 days left in auction. 68k miles. Car still in Commack, New York.

Sellers description:
This vehicle has had substantial restorative and mechanical work performed on it. In my opinion, all changes made corrected design deficiencies and/or, improved the overall vehicle. As with any used vehicle, minor signs of wear may become more obvious under close inspection, such as small chips or nicks, light scratches or minor abrasions, and other indications of normal wear and tear.

The car has had two owners - The first was a Judge who treated car like his baby; the second is a "Jaguar Lover" & former ASE Master Mechanic who mechanically rebuilt the car from the ground up. Extensive research was conducted on the 1986 XJS V12 original design, owner experiences, operational and mechanical problems encountered, etc. On the basis of this database, numerous improvements and upgrades were identified and implemented.

The rebuild project cost more than $25,000 & 100's of labor hours and my passion and almost fanatical 'labor of love' will benefit the lucky new owner with a fantastic car that is mechanically better-than-new.
