*HELP I CAN’T GET IT OFF OF BOLD AND IT’S REALLY FRICKING ANNOYING IM ON A
MAC PLEASE HELP*
Never seen an XJ6 with the steering wheel on the incorrect side!
Looking back… this is an XJ12L. That means it’s the long wheelbase, with
extra rear leg room, and is even more rare. Much, much less than 4700 were
made. Probably closer to 700.
Sad then, that this should be its fate. To be raped, thrashed and abused in
this manner. A comfortable, world class super cruiser, turned annoying,
worthless fart box.
Only in America baby.
you cant turn a British classic into an American Rat Rod. That’s just
disgraceful.
I’m watching this thinking two out of three Jaguar egnineers just threw up
in their mouth.
Gosh, David Freiburger really sounds a lot like Jello Biafra from the Dead
Kennedy’s, I love it!
That’s where you’re suppose to shift right; valve-float?
Why disgrace a classic Jag like that -.-
I have a 1982 XJ6 those gauges are never right ever
You missed an opportunity to build a Gasser out of it. That would have
been awesome!
I laughed IRL when he said English quality xD
These two hairy women are quite entertaining.
That’s a Clean Ass Car! HAHAHAHAHHAAA
this car looks better with the blower before it looked like a turd i
would just send to the crusher
Chevy small block.. nuff said.
I don’t know why any living organism would think it’s smart to cool off hot
metal with water.
you guys should have a tv show shown world wide i would so watch it just
you two ding mental stuff with epic vehicles
Id love to have this car
What a piece of junk lol…. they should’ve dropped a 800hp blown 427 in
there and raped the transmission
15s? The Mighty Car Mods people in Oz took a Ford Lazer (Mazda 323) that
did only 4 seconds slower than that, and all they did was put stickers and
neon lights under it. You’d have done better supercharging a Corolla,
methinks. It wouldn’t have been as funny though.
these guys have built half my teenage cars sweet
We need a tshirt with a pic of this car and the words “tea and crumpets
covered in jack daniels” underneath it lol
make the pipes straight from the headers
I bet your hardcore race gas is known as ARAL Ultimate :-D

On this episode of Roadkill, Freiburger and Finnegan do unspeakable things
to a ’74 Jaguar XJ12, one of about 4,700 made. Namely, they cut a giant
hole in the hood and install a Weiand 6-71 supercharger and twin Holley
carburetors on the 350ci Chevy V8 that was already installed in the car
when it was purchased for $1,000. But things can never be easy, so the
supercharger installation is staged in the parking lot of Gotelli Speed
Shop in South San Francisco. Then the duo hits the road, making their way
to Sacramento Raceway, where they can finally unleash “The Draguar” at the
strip.
Roadkill appears every fourth Friday on the new Motor Trend channel.

Haha! English quality means it might not work.
I see what you did there…
What Top Gear ‘merica should have been.
“Jag-waar” LOL
Looking at that Jag with the bonnet erection makes me think of the queen
wearing a stetson!
This is fucking cool! :D
Insane! Poor, poor Jag.
ok it’s heating so lets throw a blower on a sbc and see if it’s better
every time I see those old jags, I think old man yuppie car. Or a those
nigger cars with big donk wheels .
