Ok, so even though I've just ploughed about $4K into my beloved XJR, not to mention another grand this weekend for new snow tires, I'm thinking that this beastie could make for a good winter sled if the price stays under $10K (which is cheap money for a Spur II here in the Colonies). Granted, this one has worn paint and one helluva rust patch above the rear screen, but might also be the perfect candidate for a daily driver SZ experiment. Thoughts gents?

might it not be better to wait for a turbo to come along ?

Meh, the dummy with the red Turbo R in CA is basically unresponsive so I figure I'll shoot down different avenues. Besides, it's a good deal cheaper than the B.

P.S. was at Dustin's today. You ever get your engines sorted out with that guy in Tejas?
