I may have finally sold my Jag

[Camino LS6]

A guy doing a restoration on an XJ-12 just looked at it and is fairly certain he will be taking it as a donor car since it is far more sound overall than the one he's been working on.

Interestingly, the plan includes repowering it with a Benz diesel.

[G. David Felt]

That is awesome, always great to sell an item that can be put back into use by another. If he does finish the project, it would be cool to see how it turned out. Try and get some pics from the guy when he is done and post them.

[Camino LS6]

I've thought about asking him to send me some pics.

[Drew Dowdell]

heck, if he gets it done, I'll stop by on a trip out there and do a story on it if he's willing.

[Camino LS6]

We'll see.

I'll just be happy to get final confirmation that they are taking it tonight or tomorrow.

The car would be going to Allentown.

[Drew Dowdell]

right near my grandmother.

[Camino LS6]

I'll let you know what happens.

[ocnblu]

Hopefully this will mean an end to the crying jags you've been suffering from. Good news.

[Camino LS6]

I got phone confirmation today that they intend to take the car. It should leave by the end of next week - hopefully sooner.

The guy promises to send me pics of the project.

[A Horse With No Name]

Good news indeed!

[BigPontiac]

Congrats! Sell the Jag and the Tahoe and you've got some Mothertruck project money...

[Camino LS6]

Yeah, something like that.

Plus, I now will have room to work on Mothertruck.

It requires serious acreage when you have things apart.

Does he know Russian?

[daves87rs]

Congrats!

[Camino LS6]

LOL@ Z

No, he doesn't know Russian, but we had a good laugh over it while he was checking out the car.

Thanks for the good wishes, this has been a long time coming.

You took the thought right out of my head!!

But now that means I need to step-up my lottery ticket buying so I can afford to have Camino do the Mothertruck how I want it

[Camino LS6]

Hurry up and win, Roger!

[GMTruckGuy74]

I'll have to make sure there's enough leftover to buy a GMC grille, emblems and other trim from LMC Truck to convert it over

[Camino LS6]

Shouldn't be a problem since I have an NOS grille, fender emblems, and horn button you can sell to the Chevy guys!

[Camino LS6]

Still waiting for the guy to get down here and pick-up the Jag - waiting is getting a bit old.

[Camino LS6]

At last!

It is gone.

[GMTruckGuy74]

Congrats on getting rid of the Jag and getting cash in your hand

[Camino LS6]

Thanks.

It was like pulling teeth to get it done, but the car is gone at last.
