Chevrolet 400 short block conversion

Smoke free

Have owned this vehicle since 1998. Was purchased in Montana. My husband did the conversion.

This car has been garaged since we owned it. The original paint is good, but does have road chips.

Air conditioner runs cold, but is coming through the defrosters.

Pioneer cd player

I have 3 1/2 cans of custom acrylic enamel paint to match, which were put into spray cans.

Runs great.

Has custom black denim logo seatcovers. Also, have sheepskins, but missing the drivers side back and they need cleaning. Have the drivers back, but cut apart and would need to be reassembled.

Have the original jaguar radio with the removable face and cassette

Have a Jaguar XJS Repair and Operation Manual with all of the schematics and instructions.

This is an extremely clean car, was always well maintained and was my husband's baby.

Auction description:

Lot #29755

Seller: hawkgt6

Location: North Plains, Oregon, previously said to be in Ft. Mohave, Arizona.

Chassis: SAJNV5849FC123493

107k Miles Shown, TMU

350ci Chevrolet V8

Automatic Transmission

Carfax Report

Private Party or Dealer: Dealer

This 1985 Jaguar XJS is powered by a 350ci Chevrolet V8 mated to an automatic transmission, and other modifications include axillary oil pressure and water temperature gauges as well as an aftermarket head unit with CD player. The car is finished in blue over a tan leather interior and was acquired by the current owner approximately two years ago. This XJS is now offered at no reserve on dealer consignment in Oregon with a Carfax report and a clean Washington title.

The exterior was reportedly repainted blue during previous ownership. Paint bubbling is noted on the lower fender and in front of the driver-side rear wheel. The Carfax report shows an accident in August 2007 involving a left-front impact and damage to that area.

Factory 15″ wheels are mounted with Toyo Eclipse tires that the selling dealer states were recently replaced. A spare tire is located in the trunk.

The interior is finished in tan leather with burl wood accents and features an aftermarket steering wheel and an aftermarket head unit with a CD player. The passenger door window switch and the air conditioning do not work. The selling dealer states that the air conditioning compressor is not fully installed.

The six-digit odometer shows just under 107k miles, approximately 4k of which were added by the current owner over the past two years. Auxiliary gauges for oil pressure and water temperature are installed under the dashboard.

The factory V12 was reportedly replaced with a 350ci Chevrolet V8 in 2014. Shifting is through an automatic transmission. An oil change was completed in January 2020.
