Forgot to say that part of the "fitting" involves cutting off all the brackets from the Jag crossmember so only the rack mounting brackets remain.
I've put a Series 3 Jaguar XJ6 front end into my '36 coupe. Welded plates in appropriate places & bolted it in (horizontally & vertically). We...
Wow. Stunning car, thanks for posting,
Exactly as Kerry says. A couple of good hard whacks on the side of the taper boss will work every time. Make sure you hit it square on rather than...
Probably wrong but to me they look very much like Lucas lights as found on many English cars (Austin / Morris in particular) from the '50's and...
Amen!! Please keep the pics coming. Looking forward to updates once you get into it.

Absolutely stunning!
Thanks for the pics, might have to put it on the calender for next year.
Thanks for the pics, makes me wish I still had my hiboy.
Might as well add my .02c worth along with everyone else. My '36 runs an 8BA, stock bore & stroke, stock cast iron heads, modern Bosch points...
Great story, great car. I wonder how many more are lurking somewhere, waiting to be rediscovered.
Don't know if there are many in the US, but the roof from an English Morris Minor is perfect. I used one on my '36 5-window with zero...
[IMG][IMG][IMG] My dear old '32 with our teardrop, I now need to repaint the TD to match my coupe. I really miss the '32!
G'day! I've got a mate in Queensland who's well into rodding a '41. It's ex Army & he's sort of following a military theme. Send me a PM if you're...
One of the highlights going to and from work -- always looks cool. Love underground carparks too -- always sounds cool. Grow up??? No way!!!
