Wow this old girl is coming together really quickly!
Good work Brett. Like the music too by the way, and the bloopers... Thanks for the video.
Isn’t it amazing. The v12 jaguar engineers that designed the engine smiling in heaven when that engine fired into life!
Incredible that you got Natasha onto the road so quickly. The interior looks excellent, and the exterior looks gorgeous. That shiny dark blue is really lovely.
The way this barn find XJS is co operating with you make ups for the ones that didn't! Well done!! If she had sat for another seven years it would have been a much different story.
Think I just got it in time!
Great find alright. You revived it quick. Love that dark blue XJS. Hope you keep it for us to drool over. Dave
Thanks Dave
Beautiful car 🚗 buddy I love jaguars and I'm starting to collect them and save a lot from the junkyard
Well done, she's a hell of a find. If I send you some cash can you buy me a Lotto ticket? You're the luckiest bugger around!
The engine sounds absolutely sweet. I reckon the Jaguar V12 is one of the best engines ever made...........so long as you don't have to pay for the fuel!
Thanks Mark
You’re very lucky being in Australia 🇦🇺. The enemy here in the U.K. is always the tin worm! I’m constantly checking my 94 Xj40 for the dreaded rust.
Nice to see the real thing. Coincidence, but I just picked up a 1/18 scale model in the same color! Nice car!
I've been watching Adam's channel, 'Living with a classic' for a while now, great channel. Well done Brett, it must have been very satisfying to get Natasha rolling and stopping.
Nice to hear a Jag V12 engine come back to life.
Great to see big boys loving their toys. Keep up the good work.
Well that went well.up and running sooner than i thought.adams channel living with a classic is very good.look forward to your next one.👍
Excellent work better. ... an inspiration for all. As long as that engine, transmission and dana diff are good your golden !

I think its a Salisbury! It has a drain plug?
@@tjmthejagmandownunder yes if it has a drain hole it's Salisbury
Usually those later model ones were dana.... luck is on your side !
Bloody beauty mate....you’ve got a brilliant collection of cats bud...keep up the good work...from an ex pat living in Switzerland..lot of cats that need care over here...but also some brilliant garage kept beauties
Hi Brett, good work on Natasha. I don't think the H.E. engines have cold start injectors, they just use the air temp and coolant temp mapping to set the injection pulse width and the AAV to set the idle.
I don't know why I said that??? I have pulled apart the xj12 enough times to realise they do not have them. Pre HE'S I think had them.
Anyway cant remove it now!.
That runs better than mine from cold... I need to try and find out why mine splutters and coughs to start with
Air and coolant sensors would be your first stop
The interior looks super clean! Love your videos. Curious as to the 20w-60 oil choice
That little bit extra range of viscosity can't be a bad thing. Thanks for watching
Hi Brett, it's sounding and looking really good the old girl I'm shocked how quickly you are getting it going it looks like you have found a little gem mate, is wife going to be claiming this one lol, keep up the great posts fella excellent
Hi Kevin she's claimed the XJR but you never know!
@@tjmthejagmandownunder well you have a good choice of car's to choose from enjoy
Yep shes coming along real nice hows the cooling system has it calmed down good vid mate keep them coming
Looks OK but will look further next visit
Hi there Brett. Have you watched Harry's Garage latest video on the XJS fuel injection maladies? Interesting, complex and no doubt $$exy.
His xjc? Watched it last night. Your right! $$$$ but he's got it
Amazing it started so quickly. What's your car lift as it looks nice and compact?
Tuff lift. Thanks for watching!
@@tjmthejagmandownunder thank you
did you replace the fuel tank Brett?
That was the initial plan but after having a closer look it doesn’t look all that bad. I think I have got to her just in time. I will check the filters regularly to endure I'm not pull crap out of the tank.
It seems women are the same everywhere just stop wherever they want, nice car sorry I sold mine.
😅👍
