So, after having my '05 LS taken / bought from me by my son I went Mustang shopping and ended up with a '07 Jaguar XKR a couple months ago. 4.2l V8 with an Eaton on top making 420 hp and torque. I got it for about 15% of it's $86k new price and it needed some love.
Naturally there is a rebuild thread:
'The Green Turtle' or 'Lets Fix This Junk' - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
The car is built very similar to an LS except it has an aluminum monoque frame and steel substructures where the LS has a steel frame and aluminum subs. It's also been blessed with the 8" Ford differential and I'm trying to find threads on swapping a 8.8 into it's place.
Thanks,
Jamie
