    Her name was Sophia (my first love affair)

    Thought I'd post up my first car straight off my learners. A car that got me heaps of attention (good and bad) if you know what I mean...

    Sold this to buy the Sandman.

    1975 XJ6 Series 1 Jaguar. Modified back in the 80's as a show car up in Melbourne. Worked over 350 Chevy V8, Turbo 350, Lister body kit and spoiler, two tone silver paint job. Performance mag rims. etc etc.

    Hmmm Gordon Farkas??? Paint that thing BRG and you couldve called yourself Danny Clarke! Lol every time I see a Jag of that shape it reminds me of The Big Steal. Love that movie!

    "Clarke! Your mad, I cant belive your saying no to the Monaro" "Im not saying no to Monaro Van, Im saying yes to Jaguar" Pisser!!

    Power steering, trans, engine... cost mor in oils than fuel on trips.
    And the standard exhaust fumes leaking in through the boot!! What was i thinking???
