Looks like I have the wrong bumpers!

with one comment

While looking at the “Practical Classics” website at the Jaguar 340, I noticed that the bumpers are different than the ones that I have with my car.  This link will show you the picture from the Practical Classics site.  I appear to have, however, original Mark 2 bumpers which are thicker.

I found mention on the “jag-lovers sedan forum” that some Mark 2 cars that were shipped to the US were rebadged in the US by adding the “340″ onto that car.  I need to do some more research on what we really have here.  Of course, I may just have a set of Mark 2 bumpers and not the one’s that were originally on the car.

A cool Owners site from Finland

without comments

It’s always a treat to find another misguided soul with a bad case of “jaguar-itis”. I found a fellow owner in Finland that has an excellent website where he details his restoration on a Mark 7, XJ12C and a Mark 1. Well worth the time for a visit!!
