Video: Jaguar XJ6 (Mark I) with 1.000 PS big-block V8!

One thing is certain, the Jaguar XJ6 Series 1 (Mark I) from the late 1960s is a beautiful piece of automotive design and a successful reinterpretation of the legendary Mark X, the brand's top model at the time. But even in spite of the beautiful looks, the Series 1 is not necessarily one of the cars you would expect in the USA. If anything, then im series status or ripe for scrap. But this example of the XJ-Series 1 from the early 1970s is different. The proud owner says it's hard to call it a Jaguar anymore, as pretty much everything apart from the shell from a Chevrolet and a couple of other vehicles comes from. For example the engine. That is a Chevy 540 big block V8 with fascinating 1.000 PS. A huge one 8,8 liter monsterthat all production engines from Jaguar to this day in the shade.

And the 1.000 hp doesn't even include that nitrous oxide enginethat can be ignited at any time with 300 rounds. It continues with a modified one Chevrolet rear suspension and there is one more 200-4R four-speed automatic Installed. In the cabin, on the other hand, there are beautiful ones Jaguar XJ12 leather seats and a clean, bespoke interior. And that the classic actually brings the performance to the road is confirmed by quarter mile times of brisk 9,85 seconds at 225 km / h. To call the Jaguar just a drag racer is inappropriate. Because it is also designed for normal driving on the road. Because the adjustable shock absorber enable perfect comfort.
