Pretty much one owner, All I drove maybe 1 thousand miles the most.

I bought this JAG back in 2010, in non running condition due to fuel problem.

I cleaned fuel lines, drained and cleaned fuel tanks, changed BOSH fuel pump, spark plugs, wires, and many other parts to make it run again....

Previous owner have changed many parts on this JAG . New control arms, BRAND NEW Transmission at 79K miles from JAG dealership ($6K) so there is brand new transmission!!! He kept this JAG in really great shape. It was always serviced in JAGUAR dealership.

GOOD YEAR tires in perfect condition, like new.

ORIGINAL EXAMPLE, NOTHING MISSING . PERFECT UNIT FOR COLLECTORS- JAG LOVERS!!!

THE BAD PART:
It was parked for little less than year...

Now is the time to fix it and sell it.

Like I said, it was running and i drove this JAG. Everything was working on this JAGUAR.....

One morning I could not start it. It cranked, but would not start. I parked it in my driveway and left it there for almost a year....

Now I have time and im trying to fix it. I found why I cant start it, but cant find the reason for the problem. There is power missing to the fuel pump. It could be a relay, fuse or something else. I don't know just yet... I started working on this JAG just recently, couple days ago.

When I connect fuel pump straight to the battery, fuel pump works and than I Can start the engine...Good news, Its was fixed today. Just changed fuel pump relay it runs now.

Im pretty sure, it will start once you find that shortage, missing power.

Im still currently working on this Jag. I will try to find the problem and make it run again, but I cant promise I will be able to fix it.....

Im not a mechanic, but I know little bit cars, and I will do my best to fix it.
Overall and for the age (34 years old) this vehicle in REALLY GREAT SHAPE, STRAIGHT BODY WITH NO RUST.

There is small paint chips and dings here in there. After all it is '79. Also under the windshield you can see surface rust, its not deep and can easily be fixed... I will do paint touchup..NOTHING MAJOR.
