Absolutely sick car my guy! THE ONLY thing I would say would make it just a wee bit better would be suicide rear doors!....Oh and "suicide(?)" trunk/boot lid to match the hood/bonnet because... well because you can!

@petermyers5793 10 месяцев назад

That is ABSOLUTELY fantastic! I’m a purist who did a glass out, every panel off restoration on my 1981 XJ12 in Rhodium Silver last year. Started stripping it on the 10th of February and had it all back together and completed by the end of last October. I’m 48 and have always had XJ’s since my 20’s, including a manual S3 6.0 TWR that I would never have sold, but for divorce. I understand and agree with everything you’ve done so well with your car. Nothing wrong with either the purist approach or a custom car that’s been put together so well such as yours. Fantastic job my friend.

Thanks for your kind words 😊

@jc6087 9 месяцев назад

You're the kind of scum that would take the V12 out of a Diablo and drop it down to a V8 /spit.

@lukespector5550 7 месяцев назад

Well done mate & that silver colour really helps show off the purist bodylines of these old beauties.

@jaynikk758 4 месяца назад

Wow, very nice sir. I own a 2004 Jaguar XJR 4.2 s/c.. almost 200,000 miles / 321,000 KM on her and I just got the transmission flushed as well as engine oil change with Liqui Moly :D

What a car, killer looks! One of my favourite Jags. Congrats on the build!

@ItsDaJax 10 месяцев назад

Nah... cars like that need be driven, not sittin'.

@GTIClubsport 10 месяцев назад

Shaun's vision is incredible - especially when you see what he started with and where the car is now. I'm a VW nut as well but this thing looks wicked, inspiring for sure

@Shadow-Edition 10 месяцев назад

Man I’m in love. I grew up with Series 111 XJ6’s 4.2 and 5.3 sovereigns. Honestly you could not do this car any better. Looks horrendously beautiful 😻. I want to see it in person…

@tntw23 10 месяцев назад

I'm in Australia and met a bloke recently who asked my opinion about modifying an XJ12 and whether it would be a good idea. If it means the car stays on the road and gets used, I'm all for it. Well done mate, great job. And then I heard the sound at the end of the video. Caught, hook, line and sinker. Love it

@keltecleeds 10 месяцев назад

Thank you guys 😊

@Rs500ybd 10 месяцев назад

"Oh My Gawwwd".........Says the ghost of Arthur Daley! Godspeed to this gentleman for his lovely car & sharing it with us here!

@g0fvt 10 месяцев назад

It would be a strange world if everyone liked it, too many people get bent out of shape that anyone dares to modify a car that was likely to have been scrapped by now. Well done to have the vision and get the job done.

@conchobar 10 месяцев назад

Beautiful. Shocking that we don't see more XJ resto-mods. They are such beautiful cars, fairly plentiful, and not too expensive. Bravo!!!!!

@chrisscott1284 10 месяцев назад

I highly recommend these guys for exhaust fabrication. System on mine is a one off and it sounds great. Seen this Jag in the metal and it's awesome.

@sirpeepsalot1 10 месяцев назад

Ex Jaguar owner here, had 7 XJ's over a 25 year period. 4 XJ40's, 2 X300's and an X350. Fancied a change 2 years ago, so I'm in an Audi TT Mk1 now, and I absolutely love it, But Shaun's creation would definitely tempt me to sit behind the leaping Jaguar again. It's what Jaguar themselves should have continued doing, thoroughly modernising the hidden bits but keeping the classic iconic outer skin, instead of throwing away years of history.

@OLH3rd 7 месяцев назад

One of the prettiest generations of XJ made into one GORGEOUS muscle car!!

@davedewey868 10 месяцев назад

Fookin sick!!. Took a shitbox and turned it into a sinister diamond.. love it.. true meaning of built not bought! Top job my man 👍

@keltecleeds 10 месяцев назад

I think in hindsight I should of started with a roadworthy example 🤣🤣

@denisohbrien 10 месяцев назад

Forst nice car my dad ever bought was an xj, always loved them, as a young lad xj's were cheap so i rolled around in them , dont have one right now but will absolutely have another! Fantastic build!

@andyfry1970 10 месяцев назад

Love it! You've achieved the right look imo. Really nice. Exhaust sound is sweet too!

@DermotCarroll 10 месяцев назад

That is a gorgeous car!! i love it .... i really liked the comment about its better now, than potentilly eating beans out of it!! 😂😂 ... it's mean looking and sounding, but syill looks like what it is!! top class and well done!

Jaguar's independent rear unit is a work of art

@davidlouis2354 7 месяцев назад

This is the way to do it. I have always wanted to simplify a computerised car like an F type Jag and put in an old Mustang drivetrain, so much more reliable. Now you have the shape and reliability to boot. Plus you can do a lot with a small block.

@kyestone8023 10 месяцев назад

Top work my friend, I'm a TVR Cerbera and T350T owner and am a Tvr car purist, cant say id exchange my engine for a US or German one but respect and a lot of credit where credit is Due. Top Production of a Truly top quality car.

@keltecleeds 10 месяцев назад

The original idea was to look to sweden for the engine in the guise of the volvo t5 ,I couldn't find a gearbox from a manual volvo 960 unfortunately

@colinevans7134 10 месяцев назад

Had 4 of these, loved them, great story and video thanks for showing us Puka

@IwillBwaiting 10 месяцев назад

I love it. It reminds me of the XJ6 that drummer of Iron Maiden had made by Jaguar. Old and new combined; in that case a Jaguar engine still.

@keltecleeds 10 месяцев назад

In that case they kept the original engine and got rid of the fuel injection system and fitted carburettors iirc

@petehalasz7547 7 месяцев назад

Absolutely great job.. I myself would have kept the V-12...lol.. My son and I have done a complete restomod on his 86 XJS.. a complete shaved body(no door handles,, lights, Even the gas cap finger lip).. custom black magic satin paint.. custom interior, including removing the ridiculous aux tank, and relocating the batt in the right trunk pocket.. Port and polished intake manifolds, custom made headers, full Mobeck MFI system,, all steel are chromed,, all suspension dropped and blasted and powder coated.. 18x9" rim's.. a complete original TWR body kit.. custom good scopes.. twin 16"electric fans... A complete wire tuck (rewired the entire ER so almost zero wires are shown). All nuts and bolts are S.S.. custom steering wheel... As you mentioned my son now knows everything about cars,, welding,, wiring, suspension,etc.. We must continue this tradition to keep kids working with their hands.. and these beautiful jags alive..

@user-ft5lb3ne9s 10 месяцев назад

wonderful this jag!!

@twilson1973 10 месяцев назад

Nice build. The XJ looks awesome. I respect how purists feel about keeping a classic car’s appearance original when restoring them but I also feel it is your car so do what you feel.

@ItsDaJax 10 месяцев назад

When you think about how many were made, how many are left, and how many are original or restored... do they all need to be restored back to stock? If there's 10k of these left(hypothetically), and twenty of them are restomoded, completely modded, is it really a big deal? That's my issue with purist.

@frubetube 10 месяцев назад

As an XJR (x358) owner, I wholeheartedly approve. What an amazing transformation.

@artist.sanctuary.studio.d16 10 месяцев назад

Work of art. Well done. Beautiful car inside and out. 👍

@ErbMcgerkin 4 месяца назад

That is a stunningly beautiful work of art! It even sounds as beautiful as it looks. I wish I knew someone with the knowledge of cars and Jaguars like this gentleman.

@keltecleeds 4 месяца назад

Cheers mate,unfortunately the xj has been significantly damaged in a break in at work,she's going to be of the road for the foreseeable future.

Sean, what a fabulous car, purist or not, this is such a wonderful build and the sound is amazing. Wonderful to see and hear you talking about the many hours of work that you have put into this beast! Well done, great video, beautiful one off classic!

@davidhamilton82 10 месяцев назад

What an amazing car. So glad you went for that beautiful green as opposed to a black or white.

@nicomeier8098 10 месяцев назад

I don't care what the "purists" say, they can play with their own cars. You did an absolute magnificent job, the car looks fantastic and with the upgrades you gave it it's a lot better too. Well done sir, hat off to you.

@dominicbarne5218 10 месяцев назад

My dad had quite a few series 1 2 and 3 when i was a kid and always 4.2’s with a gallon of water in the boot because they would always overheat at some point 😂 i live the things even though i’m an old skool bmw guy, talked myself out of buying one so many times but i think you might have just forced my hand because your creation is just another level, don’t worry what the purists say just leave them to it on the side of the road with their steam show 😂

@joebloggs9719 2 месяца назад

This looks absolutely mint. Ive been after an x308 xjr since i was a kid

@elldavis3851 10 месяцев назад

Spectacular! As I kid we had a few of these the first being a 1985 in dark red with tan leather. I would buy one of these if it came my way

@nicololorenzon3291 10 месяцев назад

The menacing music at the start with the static shots is fantastic...

@MaxS9000 10 месяцев назад

Thankyou so much for doing this build. I have always loved Jags especially the XJ. My first ride in one in the 70's cemented that love straight away. Even when they were called old mans car and rotboxes etc. I didn't / don't care. I now own one, watching your video is inspiring. Original vs Modified, I like things that actually work, so if it has to be modified to function properly, reliably and to look cool then do it. I love the car and would love to see it properly one day. Cheers.

@shelbygtsoo 10 месяцев назад

I remember my friend Dad bought a brand new 1985 Blue metallic on blue leather XJ6 which looked so majestic and cost a fortune but had tons of problems and eventually was sold for a fraction of its cost which really hurt as the car was amazingly beautiful but so badly built. But your car sir is pure automotive legend and super well done

wow I'm loving this. What a build

@kip8790 10 месяцев назад

Wow absolutely stunning. My dad bought my mum an old xj6 when I was a kid and whilst it was very tired I absolutely loved it. I’ve always wanted to do a similar build to this but with slightly smaller diameter and super wide black wire wheels,l to an earlier s2 car with the blade bumpers and smaller taillights. Great colour choice looks awesome mate 👍 always found it odd that the US has such a mod scene but we don’t. I’d love to see a murdered E-Type too.

@ruskinmotors9774 10 месяцев назад
