Pat Conroy wrote:The donor Jaguar XJS V V12 5.3 is a 1978 model. The first with fuel injection. The car lay idle for some years and a lost cause. Every thing imaginable in the engine bay had to be addressed. Massive issues include cooling, oil leaks, modifying the actual engine itself by rearranging the front end pulley setup, wiring, the list is endless. However I’m at a stage now where I could use this car as a daily driver. The end result was well worth the headaches.
Like all classic car owners, Pat is forever touching up this or that. Recently he pulled the hood of the sedan for repainting

Just a few more pix, because we all like looking at 1959 Plymouths!
