Used LS Powered 1997 Jaguar XK8 Coupe for sale in Palm Harbor, FL

Vehicle Description

1997 Jag XK8 coupe, LS2 5.3 rebuilt engine and 460LE trans. Jaguar Specialties conversion kit. All instruments, lights etc work. Cold A/C, CD 6 changer in trunk (factory). California car with NO RUST! British Racing Green with perfect tan leather interior. Engine was not running when I bought the car so I paid to have a 5.3 LS built and installed. Everything on the engine is new (a/c compressor, throttle body, alternator, starter, LS2 intake, aftermarket LSA cam and lifters, bigger stall converter, modified oil pan, GTO accessory brackets. Professionally tuned on a chassis dyno (330 horse at rear wheels). New 19 inch tires on polished mag wheels. New battery! Shifter in original Jag location. Electric bucket seats. Electric booster pump between radiator and water pump! New radiator! I spent roughly 18 months having this car built! Save yourself the time and hassle. I don't think it can be duplicated for less than $25 - 30,000! Reason for selling I'm 78 years old and it's too much car.I dropped the price because car needs paint work.the roof and trunk lid both have clear coat peeled away (rest of car is fine) from California sun. Car had 7 mufflers/catalytic converters from the factory, I had 5 of them removed.I think it sounds better! Don't ask me to drop the price any further. Be the hit of the car show with this LS powered beauty. About the only thing you could do to it is boost it. With the 5.3 iron block it has plenty of strength. Just a mild upgrade, NOS or small turbo. could easily get you 800 HP. More than enough to blow factory mustangs/corvettes away and lose your license.lol. I am searching for coil pack covers (to clean up the engine) so maybe I will have them by the time it sells. Hood clearance is tight otherwise I would have used a different intake. Engine has less than a 100 miles on it! This engine, if taken care of, will give you 250 - 500.000 miles. Only thing to address would be shocks, brakes and etc. I may disconnect the heater since it seldom gets cold in Florida. Would be easy 20 min job to reconnect it. I may take an interesting coupe car in trade. (trade price is $27,000). Please don't waste my time with low ball offers. I don't have to sell the car and would rather be buried in it than give it away.old two door chevy's (especially a 1937), 32 - 34 ford coupes, 40 ford pickup truck.maybe a nice old pre computer days jag!
