Chevy V8 Power: 1976 Jaguar XJ Series 2

This next car came with a burst of small block enhanced déjà vu.  I swear I've seen this exact same car before...offered for a same price..but it appears the car listed here in 2017 for roughly the same price and condition is NOT the same car but a doppelganger.  So...do the same reasons for featuring that car still apply?  You bet!  The added reliability and reduced cost of the Chebby swap makes me wanna have a V8. Find this 1976 Jaguar XJ Series 2 offered for  $4,500 in Lebanon, OR via craigslist. Tip from Rock On!

Lotta Beef For The Coin: 2003 Jaguar XJR

Blue Thursday: 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport XJ

To the average guy walking down the street, they probably won't take a second glance at a 20 year old Jeep Cherokee, but to a certain subset of the population, this next feature is the bee's knees.  Personally, I'm ambivalent and would probably get a 4Runner if I needed a 4X4 SUV...but, why drive boring when you can drive turismo?  Find this 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport XJ here on eBay bidding for $6,001 with 3 days to go, located in Woodbury, NJ.

Survived: 1976 Jaguar XJ6 Coupe

There is a fine line between a survivor car and one that has somehow managed to survive...so far.  This next car might blur that line a bit and has survived because it is rare/desireable, but...will the next owner be forced to restore it?  Find this 1976 Jaguar XJ6 Coupe offered for $4,500 in Norco, CA.  Tip from FuelTruck.

10k: Clean XJ: 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport

The XJ generation Jeep Cherokee defined a new standard in compact sport utility vehicles.  It was a capable off roader that eschewed body-on-frame roughness for a unibody chassis that gave it relatively good fuel economy and good road manners.  Naturally, every weekend warrior, little league dad, and soccer mom wanted one and even the US postal service got a version with right-hand drive for delivery routes.  Find this 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport here on eBay currently bidding for $9,301 with 4 days to go, located in Woodbury, NJ.

10k: Low Mile 4X4: 2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ Sport

Launched in 1984, AMC's XJ generation Jeep Cherokee set the standard for a new era of compact sport utility vehicles (SUVs).  Other manufacturers raced to copy the fast selling unibody off-roader and only caught up when Chrysler dropped the ball on continuous improvement.  It may have been whoa in 1984, but by Y2k it was meh and was replaced in 2001 with the bleh Jeep Liberty.  Find this 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport here on eBay currently bidding for $10,200 with 3 days to go, located in Woodbury, NJ.

1k: When Life Leads You to LeMons: 1971 Jaguar XJ, Chevy V8, Barn Find

Whoever found this rust-riddled Jaguar XJ with a Chevy 350 under the hood must have felt like the kid who got a stick of lip balm for Halloween. That's pretty cool and all, but what are you supposed to do with it? Can you trust it? It doesn't come with keys or an interior or verification if it runs at all. Sounds fun. Find this 1971 Jaguar XJ with Chevy 350 V8 in San Francisco, CA for $999 (or $500 "for LeMons guys") via craigslist. Better start working on that LeMons secret handshake.
