Wow holy jeez that seems underpriced. The coupes are rare and (I thought) valuable!

Very underpriced, so long as it has all the glass. Door windows were NLS in 1987.

"Price very negotiable", too.

Looks like the vinyl roof wasn't kind, but still a good looking car

looks pretty rare... but 

seems to not be that collectable on bring a trailer 

looks to go for about the same price as the 4 doors

Sweet car, but I fear any attempt at "restoring" it would end you up quickly underwater.  At least it's a carburetor model, so there's a chance of it running again...

Yeah, that poor car is in pretty rough condition

Alas, as this one only has the pedestrian six cylinder, it's essentially valueless to anyone who knows anything about Jaguars.  I once watched Sir William Towns himself pour petrol in the open window of a mid-70's XJ6 and then torch it with his cigarette.  I can't say that I blame him.  Now if it had a V12, this would be a definite buy.  I'm not sure I can think of any vehicle more worthy of complete devotion to the detriment of any other automotive knowledge.

Oh no. I just looked it up. 108" wheelbase. It's exactly right. I'm going in. Get my back.

Insert *oh boy is this great* meme. Please link to the build thread. Btw, I'm not too far from this, and have a car hauler. 

EDIT: I was thinking about this car yesterday, and combining it with the 6.0 liter chevrolet truck V8..
