Some great progress to report from Jetstream who finished the car Federal XJ6 in a DuPont hue similar to Ecurie Ecosse Blue. This 11-part paint benefits from a high-gloss finish. It was applied to entire body, engine bay and underside.
Progress is coming along nicely on the XJ6C. The engine, front subframe and rear subframe are out, with the dashboard left in.
New floor pans were welded in by Jetstream Custom Auto then the whole outside of the body was media blasted with the dashboard wrapped up. Now that I look at it, maybe the new floors could have been blasted too. Not long after this shot, the entire car was covered in primer.
Just received this 1976 Federal Jaguar XJ6C with another Series II XJ6L for a parts car. The car will have a complete mechanical restoration by us after body and paint from Jetstream Custom Auto.
Fingers crossed that the Delenaire 2 climate control system is fully functional, the manual on this system is 80 pages alone!
