Overhaulin'

[PROJECT N00b]

has anyone here ever considered doing it? i might try to get my aunt on this with me, hopefully we can do this. she has the money to pay for it so that shouldnt really be a problem. well talk about it more and well get his 1995 Jaguar XJRS worked up by non other than Mr. Foose.

fill that out, and i think they just pick based on what ever is it they use to make a decision. but im sure if we send this one, then theyll pick us because its a Jag!!!

Any pics of said Jag? Good luck too.

They'll put some 22's in the rear and 20's in the front. Then they'll throw in a Edelbrock crate 350... I wouldn't do it, unless you plan on selling it on ebay.

i hate when tv shows get their hands on good cars, they always try to put big flashy rims on them and stuff big speakers in the back of them or anything else to "pimp your ride". imo i would never let some tv show touch my car

they dont do all that, they do engine work and what not and exterior, these are the guys i would hand my keys over to. they dont put huge systems, and they work really close with what the mark wants. so i wouldnt really worry too much about that stuff, i mean they even take care of the rust problems.

lol. i know, hopefully they do take it, comeon its a jag. haha thats funny, because no one really wants to mess with them anyways.

Eh - the Jag V12 is an excellent Engine - either in Carb or EFI form. Driven a TWR worked over one a few years back - definitely a fun car!

 

[Fuzz420]

I like this show. I think they do the cars very tastefully.

 

[Kai]

Yup - it's the Anti-Pimp My Ride. I wish they did a UK version of Overhaulin though...

foose is the man when it comes to classics, but i dunno if i'd let him touch my supra.

I'd kind of be interested to see what he did with one :dunno:

I've always thought about that too. It be an interesting thing to see.
Iirc, they have done imports before.

 

[americanjebus]

The problem with your application is that your car is european,

Most of their sponsors if you hadnt noticed are like Year One. Mostly domestic american, non metric measurment cars the parts the like.

i've only seen them do ONE import, that was a civic and they gave it a gay looking paint job and a body kit, however, they did do a good job on the dudes engine rebuild.

I dunno i bet they wouldnt do it because of their lack of parts that could be accessed in 1 week for a jag, especially that v12.

i'd be really warry if someone told me my supra had been with them for 1 week, i know it would look cool, but it'd probably be bright green with racing stripes a wing and a rebuild done by someone who's never worked on a 7m. Hell, they'd probably buy a new longblock from toyota and try to throw a diesel turbo on it and call it good with an msd ignition.
