Hi! I posted some questions on the General Discussion Board (and received some great info from Doug D. - Thanks!), but after some thought, I thought I'd post here as well, which is probably what I should have done in the first place... Sorry for the re-post!
I've come across an absolutely beautiful 1977 XJ6 2 door (is this considered an XJ6C?) with 61k miles. Frankly, I've never seen this style/vintage, but I've fallen in love. According to info sheet on the car (the car is currently at an ôantique mallö), the 4.2 litre was rebuilt 200 miles ago... It has a "Special T 700 Transmission". The sheet metal appears straight and the interior looks very clean (though I've only been able to look through the glass).
What I know about old cars in general is that "You don't know what You don't know"... I understand fully that this vehicle is 26 years old, and older vehicles bring with them special needs. To put it in perspective, I own a 1979 International Scout II, which I love working/tinkering on.
Does anyone feel like giving me all the negatives to a vehicle like this? Things to look out for when considering buyingà Stuff like th???
Also, can anyone tell me what I should expect to pay for this vehicle in good to probably excellent condition?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE! My apologies for bombarding this site with so many questions so early.
