Deloreans would be cool. You'll need some steel wool! My husband & bil used to work for DMC here in the Houston area.
Definitely deloreans and they obviously only associate them With a crappy film because they're brain dead and don't know anything about their history, there is a LOT more to deloreans than that crappy movie
@@violettheorgangrinder It's also a crappily designed car. Per my husband, putting on, adjusting the doors, and getting the latches in sync is tedious. The fuel injection system was hard to make it pass emissions. They were out of production by time they were used for the movie. The current owner bought the remaining stock and had it shipped to the US. They are now built and restored in Humble, Texas, a suburb of Houston. There are also a few other places around the US that work on them. John Z had skills to design cars (i.e. GTO) but mismanagement, government corruption, and drugs made the dream short lived and the design imperfect. 🙁
The Bullitt Mustang? LOL
please no more vaccuum noise
Those US bumpers are absolutely horrendous. Great work on the restoration.
👏👏👏
Stupid safety laws (this is coming from an American)
Absolutely
And the headlights have been changed
Cry more
This is what makes me proud to be British watching a classic jag being detailed,well done guys
I adore these cars, when I was 18, my boss had one and he used to let me drive it! I didn’t even have my own car at the time, everything after that was a bit of a let down if you know what I mean. Great video, really satisfying transformation 👍👍👍
You guys just made yourselves perfect detailers, I cant stand someone that brags and never seems to make a mistake, unlike one of the other detal guys on UA-cam that is always negative toward everything, but you guys are the best, great job👍
It’s such a shame to see an iconic car left to deteriorate so much after the guy obviously spent a decent amount on the paint, interior and mechanical just to leave it in a corner to waste away…..WD have done a great job in bringing back some of its great looks but the damage has been done unfortunately.
I think it would be good, if you use a steam cleaner for the interieur. The Canadien collegue DetailGeek shows it.
Interior*
I use a steamer on a shit load of things but you have to be careful with dilapidated leather seats tho
Sorry for my English.
@@gaiko__8660 they are definitely lots of fun to use.
@@jayasmrmore3687 it’s one of my favorite tools for disgusting ass interiors.
after all those years that old english lady has still got it! beautiful car and super transformation.
Action starts at 4:30
Beautiful Jag she is ready to prowl once again! good job guy's
that red Lumina caught my eye what you guy's doing to that Gem. dam where i live we do not see them vehicles no more. they are easy fix cars. you guy's see and Z-34's?
I don't understand why people dislike this video they are doing their job and showing us how it's done so why are this dislikes keep it up guys love from India❤❤
How do you know there is dislikes? They never show for me

We owned a car as in this video during my years in undergraduate school. I loved the car, but it was for the family. The owner is correct - the car would RUN!!!!!!!
Absolute not my type off car, but you Guys but the detailing was perfect !! At the start i always think, this time they don t get the car clean, but every time you surprises me with a excellent result ! Nice video ass always and wait for your next project !!
I really hope your collab with the other detailer isn't Stauffer garage Id love it to be with detail geek he's amazing detailer
my guess is mad detailing, they always comment on each other’s posts and stuff and detail geek just isn’t the type to do a collab but i can’t imagine it would be stauffer, pretty much everyone knows what’s up with that guy🤮
100% not stauffer. We know better
What’s wrong w stauffer garage?
Beautiful. I just wish you did more engine and undercarriage detailing. It just feels unfinished when it's skipped.
@16:59 cigarette flies out of the ashtray. Former smokers car! Too bad. It is IMPOSSIBLE to find a 40+ year old car that is 100% smoke free. Too bad
Well that’s because that’s the era that them cars sort of come from
Spelling and phrase lesson for the American viewers 👇🏻
JAGWAR like wut 🤣
JAG👉🏻 U👉🏻 AR
👉🏻JAGUAR 👈🏻
That car needs an LS3 with a procharger, 6 speed manual Tremec, new coil overs on every corner and new brake system from master cylinder to disks.
I like your humble style on your narratives. Good job. Really enjoyed the whole thing.
Lovely car of course. BUT, those bumpers? They ruin the lines. Please swap them for UK spec version.
When I was working on a used car lot in the '80's we had a guy come out and jack up the wheel and use a small machine with an abrasive wheel to actually scrape off a layer of white wall . They looked like new when finished.
It looks like you work the harder way why dont you do the inside of the car first and then the outside reason being its because you still could leave finger prints . Also you could detail inside and when you wash the car you will be done and dont have to go back on the inside
Had a 1979 XJ6L that I drive for years. Damn near rusted out from under me. Absolutely beautiful car nonetheless.
Thats a fabulous car for a variety of reasons, I hope it always stay in hands that appreciate what theyve got
Always good to see a JAG-U-AR looking the way it should 👍
Thank you for the correct pronunciation!
First wooooo
Nobody cares
@Byron Scott yes, I'm furious, you caught me.
Great video! I know to never get a beige interior though!LOL
Love these rising from the dead details! 🥵🥵😍🙌🏼
Nice job on this Jaguar XJ-12L guys.
In answer to your question, I've always had good luck using a Brillo, or SOS scouring pad when scrubbing whitewall tires, or alternatively a can of Ajax, or Comet cleanser, a scrub brush, & a bucket of warm water would also do the trick. Good luck!
Luxurious mini Bentley classic lines & the correct colour scheme ....Great video guys 👍
Great vid! I own that car's sibling, a rare 76 XJ12c.
Not sure if you’re following Harry’s Garage.
ua-cam.com/play/PL_59VKXlVEur_JThbIWlte57eeMyhVDpF.html
beautiful car
Great job on the paint! With respect to the white wall tires, SOS or Brillo pads usually do the trick. If not, a brass bristle brush with some cleanser will work. They make a brush that is a little wider than the typical white wall. The SOS are also perfect for real chrome bumpers and wheel covers like this car has. They will knock all that light oxidation right off.
Now this car is buried treasure, now it's turning out cleaning and detailing, you cleaned very well man.
That's an extremely rare XJ12 in a timewarp condition. Great detailing to restore to its former glory. You used to be able to pick up the rusty 6 cylinder ones for a couple of hundred, but now even Series 2 prices are going up!
I just found your channel today. That car is GORGEOUS! Crappy mpg be damned. I'd drive it occasionally.
The foam coating around he 9 minute mark is oddly satisfying to me. :-)
You did a grate job! But I HATE that guy.... Buy the abandoned car and then... abandon the car, AGAIN! C'mon!
I've used Brillo or SOS pads on white walls with satisfaction in the past. You did a great job on the Jaguar.
👆🏻Yes! This works like a charm.
The value of these vehicles in the U.K. are astronomical - really enjoyed this video.
For two decades they were priced as scrap. Cool they appreciate now.
The note it the car said he was trying to sell it for $5500 20 years ago...
BACK TO THE FUTURE!
👀
@@WDDetailing Time travel collab?
SPAZ
Great Scott!!
Thank you for your great job here.
Man, the amount of liquid you put inside this car made my teeth itch.. Why? All the electrics in the proximity, all the cards & hardboards behind the leather that`ll distort, all the soundproofing under the carpets that will retain that liquid & rot the floors out.. Ughhhh! Noooo! 😆 And all those main floor carpets are just velcro`d in, why even do them in situ? Mannn.. I`d be furious if that was my car..
I can see why Americans moan about Lucas electric now.. Newsflash guys, the connectors & switches were never designed to be soaked in water...
Wow what a turnaround the interior came out real good it was in decent shape but you guys made it new, and the paint came real good for a car that was sitting getting dust, 💯👍🏾✌🏽👏🏽👏🏽
👍👍👍👍
Why don't you remove the floormats to clean them separately from the groundcarpet?
Those arent mats. That is the carpet haha
@@WDDetailing They come right out in a few seconds. Just held in place with two snaps. Removing the seats was a much bigger job.
Wow, that paint work looks amazing.
john mcdonalds had a farm
I use Wesley's Bleach White on my white letter and whitewall tires. I did my 70 GTO for the first time in 10 years and it looked great afterwards.
I remember years ago, there used to be a paint that you can use to repaint the white walls of tires. But you got to be good at it or it looked crappy. Didn't those carpet pads in the front come out?
Why did you leave rust patches on the chrome wheels? Surely chrome cleaner and/or a little wire wool would sort this out. Shame the owner let the car get into this condition. Great job and content. Keep up the good work 👍
Hi ... UK here ... I'm sure the original top speed in 1970 was 153 mph (British speed) ????
.
A Jaguar XJS featured on BBC "Top Gear" and was destroyed ... but i'm sure it hit 146 mph on a radar gun !!
.
They are beautiful cars and compare to the Rolls Royce in many ways !!!
.
Wow what a beautiful color !!!
.
(Hey get some quality release oil in those bores and a squirt of 2-stroke oil !!!)
.
Let the smoke clear... run for a few weeks ... then new plugs !!!........... wonderful old car !!
Guy told him it’s a 1974 jag, then says oh it’s late 70s 80 car?
Then the guy tells him it does 12 to the gallon and he says like 8-10? Doesn’t give you much confidence he’s listening does it.
Ooohhhhh ohhh wee
Hello. Does anyone here know what month and year Brent was born? I heard him say in his stepdad’s truck detail video that he was 25, and that was on September 25th 2020. And the 1996 Impala barn find he said it was bought the exact day he was born, in around mid-1995. So that makes me think that Brent was born in July 1995, would guess the 24th of July. I’m not trying to be spooky or anything, I just love birthdays. If not July 1995, I guess Late June, or mid August, or early September. I would never stock anyone, as that means breaking into someone’s house, and I would never do that ever.
Grace, Space, Pace. Precisely what this old long wheel base Jaguar has. The L on the model means long wheelbase and the added length was all in the rear seat. In England this would have been sold as a Daimler Double Six (Pronounced "Dime-ler")
I'm glad you did not try to inflate those old tires. Hopefully the owner did not either. Tires that old fan suffer catastrophic failure even when sitting parked and the damage can be considerable.
Sir William knew good design when he saw it. He also specified the best materials for is creations. That leather is from Belgian hides, tanned and prepared by Connelly. The carpets are pure wool woven by Wilton.
That actually came up really nice, paint was surprisingly good.
Love the cigarette butt that came flying out of the ashtray when you hit it with the tornador 😂
Older classic Jaguars are so underrated man. Even up through the 90s they’re gorgeous and elegant af. They almost have that German heaviness with everything feeling solid and Saturday. Can haul ass while being super comfy haha I’d love to bag an older xj L. The VIP guys over in Japan have built some beautiful jags and got me wanting to pick one up
I cant believe why owners of such cars will allow them to get in such a state! Enjoy your videos therapy. Greetings from Pretoria South Africa.
Amazing transformation guys!!
12 miles per gallon equals to 20 liters per hundred kilometers which is insane. Its like a truck. This was definitely not built with low consumption in mind.
It’s not a ‘ Jagwar ‘ it’s pronounced’ JAG-YOU -ARE ‘ . It seems Americans don’t understand sophisticated automobiles!
Its wasn't the fastest 4 door sedan. The Australian XY Ford Falcon GTHO Phase III did 142 mph in 1971. And it would do 157mph with the factory rev limiter removed
SOS pad + LOTS of elbow grease will make the nastiest, most gouged up white stripe on a tire look new. The pad gets into the gouges like a brush will never do, ant the pad is infused with a lye based soap to clean all the nasties. Generally takes about 5 minutes per tire, if it is really bad. One pad per tire, please...LOL! SOS pads will clean surface rust off of those polished wheels, too [as well as pretty much anything chrome - just keep the pads wet] and shine them right up. Multitude of use for them, just not on paint. Takes bugs off of windshields, instantly! For next time, those rug sections in the footwells just snap in. Removing them from the car will let your extractor remove a lot more of the ground in grime than can occur with them snapped in on the floor.
On a different note, the owner of that beautiful Jaguar needs to be horsewhipped for treating it like a truck. He also needs to learn the meaning of the word restored. The person who painted it did no favors for him. Wrong shade, thin coat. Oh well, another used car [dealer].
Y'all did a very good job on a rough car. Nice work!
Wesleys bleche white is what i used to use on my whitewalls when i had them. Works so good!
I still use that today! The only wheel cleaner that can get the white walls white!
Sometimes TMI. These car abusive owners. “Oh, I forgot about it for 19 years.” That is f-ing annoying. They don’t deserve these cars.
I got to say at the time there was nobody that could rival Jaguars Interiors, they were just absolutely phenomenal I mean they even beat Bentley Rolls-Royce all of them those Interiors were incredible. Those seats are at 10 out of 10❤
👍👍👍
Hey boys, it's really heart warming to see you looking after a true British classic. I thank you, it looks great! RH, London.
I got serious anxiety when I saw you started washing the engine. The rust on those cars can get to be quite extraordinary... As well as the electronics are just awful and you know - water and electronics (especially British). Came out nicely.
Great job, definitely can tell this was for the US market with those awful black plastic bumper extensions.
Leave it to the Americans to take a beautiful car and tag it with ugly bumpers.
I have a BMW E46 with narrow whitewall and the only thing that can clean them is Adam’s All Purpose Cleaner. I recently took the vehicle to the BMW Dealership to do some work and the had to remove the tires. But the black greasy stains remained on the whitewalls. They tried very hard to clean it. But Luckily I keep this product and it is still the only cleaner to clean them.
91,227 Series II models were produced, of which 14,226 were fitted with the V12 engine.
Gas guzzlers... Sighs. I wonder if cars like that have been retrofitted electric. The design is so beautiful, it would be nice to still see them on the roads.
Those stupid bumpers are a crime against humanity. The most efficient way to kill the elegance of a perfect design.
Those carpets still looking absolutely filthy ...... steam clean them instead?
Such a terrible marketing decision, that Jaguar produced that same car with a couple of facelifts, right up until 1992.
Liberally watering a V12 Jag with Lucas electrics, the car won't move anytime soon...that is quite a mistake.
12 to the gallon !!! How things have changed and improved over the years. Mine’s doing 20 to the gallon ! 🤪
An SOS or Brillo pad works well for whitewall tires, or raised white letters. I had to cringe a little watching you spray the shifter and center console. Jaguars are notorious for having tons of electrical problems. See water sprayed on the window switch’s was definitely pretty daring.
I watch detail channels just to learn how to be a better detailer and learn what to do when not to do learn about different chemicals and products to use I just basically just want to know who are they who thinks like me and I appreciate you for sharing your knowledge knowledge is power I’m out of New Jersey
Best comment you guys have made, “We aren’t perfect.” None of us are, even after 36 years in medicine in my case. I’ve noticed that you’ve changed your approach to mold/fungi on interiors. You weren’t too proud to ask in the past. Keep up the good work. Now, you need to find a ‘77 Cutlass Supreme Brougham to detail. My first car (new) my senior year of HS that I paid for. Second the comment on getting a steam cleaner.
I heard that too, and instantly trust these guys.
You could take a steel wool over that white and that will make it look better work black and also when you buff a car, use mother wax and use car soap has wax in it and also, you can do the windshield with wax, but do not use a buffer on the windshield because you can crack it and never use a pressure washer because also you can damage the paint I’m auto body also
Lovely car - it looked so good.
Detailing restoration ? Stains left all over the inside after you cleaned. You did not jack up the car and remove tyres and degrease underneath. The paint & chrome work arent seen close enough and explained exactly the situation. 🤨
I really wish they would say Jaguar correctly 🏴
I’ve got a 79 XJ12 Fi that’s been sitting 33 years you in Ohio?
Hi if you want to do near perfect job on a 20 year old project must pull all the wheels off first...no mickey mouse job in this competitive field...
Seems like a lot of work on the floor mats. Why not just take them out and powerwash them. Are they not removable? 🤔
Magnifique auto, elle a besoin d'amour et d'être grandement chouchoutée par un ou une passionné (e) !
You did an amazing job as usual I want you to order At first I saw behind you a BMW E60 We want you to ring it up and polish it like you always do
Beautiful car one of my favorite colors also. Now put the darkest color tented glass you are allowed in your state and you have yourself one luxurious gas hog of a car I had to put it in there because it is the truth but some of us don’t care about things like that because we have a lot of money which I don’t But it sure would be a nice sunday driver.
R.J., you do so much of this stuff inside, close to tools, other cars, workbenches, all sorts of items. It would seem that all of it gets wet. Doesn't the owner get bent when you do that?
Hey some advice from an old timer when cleaning white walls use a brillo pad they work awesome. Without working hard.
The eagle eyed will notice the us spec xj has identical size inner and outer headlights for us regulations at the time. A great option would be to retrofit UK spec headlights which are different sizing
You should use a steamer with a brush. Blast steaming isn't going to fully clean it up.
Comet works wonderful on whitewall tires but don’t use it on the body because it’s on the gritty side and you’ll scratch the car.
By the was that jaguar is my favourite car it turned out amazing very well done guys love it 👌👌👌💰💰
Such a shame they had to put those hideous rubber bumpers/fenders on such a lovely car. Great job though guys👍😁
These V12 Jags were known for burning to the ground if you tried to drive them.
