project xj
this winter the xj that cuz owns is coming apart for cleaning and a few modifications, the xj aint worth much so this is kind of a play thing to keep him busy on the dark winter nights.

Re: project xj
needs to be completely stripped and cleaned. all those bad bits of rust need cleaning off, then give the frame and rear swinger a good coat of hammerite or equivilent. then get the autosol to the engine, carbs and rearsets. then bobs your uncle, much better looking. if you wnt to rat it, get the matt black or green on the case!

Re: project xj
Agreed - keep it original - although if he sells it will it make enough money to cover the Autosol bill...
