Sellers description:
1977 JAGUAR XJ6C six cylinder dohc with triple SU carb set up. Very good power and driveability. shifts well and handles well. tight suspension. power steering is tight without play or wear. good breaking. fuel system is clean and functioning without issue. the change over from stromberg to SU carbs has increased the performance and makes the car a pleasure to drive. I have owned other 70s jags with the restrictive Strombergs and there is no comparison. Many collectors choose the 12 cylinder coupes over the standard six 4.2 with strombergs, but this conversion makes this a close comparison for engine power.

British Racing Green paint has some imperfections. blemish on passenger door. see photo.

The body is well preserved being a west coast car up until last year. Undercarriage is solid and paint is presentable. good chrome and recent top. Leather interior is clean and overall very presentable. good dash wood and door panels,recent new carpet and headliner. wheels are from a 97 xj and fill out the wheel wells adding a much nicer ride than the stock rims and tires which are available if desired instead.

Rear bumper is a euro style solid chrome with over riders. I preferred the look of these bumpers.
* I do have all of the original stock manifold and carb components for retro fitting if your state requires stricter emissions. most states would exempt this model year. california will not.

Completely functioning lights,signal switches.power windows,heat and defrost. ac will need charge.
This is a currently running and totally road worthy car which is garage kept and avoids bad weather.
