nice work! what gauge steel did you use? would it be the same for a x308? also what kind of welder are you using?

The one thing that we really need to know about any restoration and preservation of early historical motor vehicles is that you have to get the use of the day involved with them and it seems that they really really don’t want to. That is a great worry to us here we are is what we leave behind and how we care for it in all shapes and each way you can think about it, less we forget regards Alan from down under where this island is not what you think it is at all

great vid, well described all the way, covered all the pitfalls of doing that repair

Very useful information especially the earths will give those a check on my 96 4.0.

Great video very informative. I’ve just bought a Katsu 3” Angel Grinder, a nice little tool. I’m just getting back into DYI and a small project I’ve in mind. I’ve bought the Roloc Adapter as recommended in your video. However, I need some advice further please on the various accessories & attachments I can buy & use with the Katsu… Arbours, size, sanding disc’s, etc etc etc… Any advice would be helpful and invaluable… Thanks

Fantastic! Thanks! 🎸🎶😀

Thanks my guy! Had a job today like that today. Didnt have thin string but my picktool worked just fine (took longer obviously)

Beautiful car

I'm liking that spot welder

I thought it is made of aluminium. ?

Are you using a mig or tig

Hi, Can you tell me where you got the mini grinder. I cant seem to find your review channel. Thanks Neil.

Got a Jag to do Steve 1995 X300 In NZ, Light on dash will try this on your video, before anything else Thanks ! Is that a good Bristol Accent? I was from the Midlands now in NZ

Another informative video thats twisting my arm further to pull the trigger on the one i have found here in France.

A very good video ive just found here in France where im considering buying a 96 ex UK 4.0 Sport and was Google searching for repair panels and it was nice to see your skills in action. Cheers, Phil.

Hello Steve, just wondering if you made any further progress on the mini. I only ask because I recently re-watched your video regarding guide coats and sanding and I wondered if you have further tricks tricks to offer. Best regards, David.

Those brackets your Mk 2 had are not original, unless Jaguar altered them after mine was made in 1960. The front bracket should be in front of the cross member and flush with the top. The rear screws to the floor and straddles the handbrake cross shaft. I have fitted full electric XJ8 seats to my Mk 2. They went straight in after removing the riveted on brackets from the runners. I think your idea is much stronger than mine though. Mind you, I’ve only just fitted seat belts, personal safety not being my priority, although the new seats did stop me sliding across the car when cornering! The seats I got have all the switching and electronics built in. All I had to do was find where pos and neg connected, and my car is positive earth, but no problem as everything is insulated.

The worst MK2 Jag you can buy is one partially in bits! Good luck sorting that mess out mate! 😂 👍

Looking forward to your next videos.....

Keep up the good work!

Great video Steve!!!! Great to see you keeping this old girl in the road!!!!!!

I remember the days when a white Astra van was the fastest vehicle in the M4 motorway!!!! I reckon one went past me doing 110mph+ one day in the 80s......

A master class on how to weld up a rusty Jag! A 'Jag' specialist would have pulled your pants down for this sort of repair!

We were sat in the grandstand next to where you were. Are you going this year?

Brilliant job there Steve. Gripfill and the felt paint was an interesting tip. Got a front wing/sill to do once the weather cheers up.

Great video verry informative, excellent drawing aswell. Mine is stuck closed, so I've separated it from the outer vent which works okay. The only thing that's missing is the control linkage, any ideas where to get one from ??

Great video Steve! Keep up the good work!!!!

Did you buy this in Northern Ireland Steve?

Super helpful as I try to adapt a 3.8L XK motor with SU carbs into my LHD 1937 Packard. Thanks!

Hi Steve, am trying to do exactly the same, but no luck in finding the adaptor on Ebay and Avon Engineering not responding. Hoping you might know an alternative source? Have tried to sort with a Female M10 to Male M6 adaptor. The M6 fits the roloc plate, but the M10 female thread won't screw down on the Katsu male. Currently at a dead end :) Was amazed to find your video - thanks Paul

Great video Steve!!! Keep in posting....

Great video Steve!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Great work Steve! Great video too!!!

Great video Steve!!! Great drawing!!! If only Ed could make drawings... let alone write... But, he does have FabCats!

I did the same to mine about 8 years ago. the switches used to operate the seat are, on the seat. It was simple to do. Drop the crossmember a few inches, Forget about the "seat memory control unit) and basically, from memory it was black wires to chassis, orange, green wires ignition control (via 3oA Relay) thats it! Much Much Better. Even the headrests are electric. I even put the 24Valve 4.Litre in with HP22 auto and kept it on the column. I also had it on LPG but going to take it out. Next for me is Lekky windows and CDLS..

Good video Steve!

that was good, Thanks.

Keep up the good work....

Great to see these Engkishvclassic car's being kept on the road!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!

Brave man: taking on a roof!!!! VERY difficult to get right....

Keep up the good work on keeping the Mk2 on the road...

Great to see people keeping these classic Jaguars on the road..... Keep on motoring....

Good work Steve!

Thanks for taking the time to record this video. Trying to get the tachometer in my Teal Bugatti working- it has jaguar dials so this is just the ticket!. I would be interested to know if I converted to an Accuspark electronic ignition would that count as electonic ignition that you discuss?
