Lyle we are always looking for Jaguars or parts...There is one in Austin TX right now for a 100 bucks but it is pretty rough.....This one came out of Kingman AZ a while back...Are you coming this way right now?.......

13 Lincolns!!! I am impressed! Hopefully they were all early '60's convertibles, with suicide doors!
