hello new to this  i thought i would share my jaguar ownership story 

i have recently purchased a s type  1999  year  3lt  that was in very good condition with service history  drove  it home £419 pounds off ebay  

the reason for my purchase was to cut the roof of and turn it into a luxury pick up truck that was in November  so two months into it  its looking rather good i have strengthened  it made all the panels and body my self in my workshop i l have got the  log book changed at dvla to read  jaguar s type pick up and color changed to black they were very helpful

when i was planning my project looked on google and could not find a stype to draw inspiration from so i think i may have the only s type pick up  with the log book saying stype pick up on it in the world  wow wee how about that 

unless any of you no different 

 a couple of pics it much further on now will post more if any ones interested 

That's different Tony! Would like to see more pics for sure 

Welcome by the way to JOC

Hi Tony

have you managed to squeeze 2 seats in the rear of the cab as well? I can't quite make out if possible or not. Is she going to be a working car?

clearly talented by the way 

Hi Tony--

Wow what a project it looks as though  you are making a really professional job of it 

looking forward to seeing more photo's  as you go along .

thanks for comments it only has two front seats and a bit behind seats for my dog i all ways have a winter project on as it keeps me occupied until race season starts  

pick up is now finished registered at dvla as  a jaguar s type pick up colour black so all done and on the road i think its the only legally road registered pick up in uk it drives like it did when i bought silky smooth as built of steel and weighs the same i shall use it for my daily works driver seats are original  have resprayed them with leather paint  i also put quad rear exhaust boxes on so sounds well also made induction kit and a Bentley style grill 

 

 

That's great Tony.

Quite a remarkable transformation.

I would like to bet yogurt some heads turing.

Regards,

Peter.

thanks jim and peter i do enjoy driving it
