Jaguar XK 120: The Remarkable History of JWK 651
Jaguar XK 120: The Remarkable History of JWK 651
This book tells the story of one of the six alloy-bodied XK 120s that were prepared by Jaguar in 1950 for racing and rallying. This one, known as JWK 651 because of the registration number, was owned by Leslie Johnson and raced by him in some of the most prestigious events of the time, including the Le Mans 24 Hours, the Mille Miglia (twice) and the Tourist Trophy at Dundrod. Beyond that, Johnson and up-and-coming racing driver Stirling Moss visited the speed bowl at Montlhery for a record-breaking attempt, and Johnson also took part in the RAC Rally. In 1950, the car lay in second place in the Le Mans 24 Hours after 15 hours and was gaining on the leaders when the clutch failed. Besides this diverse and distinguished period competition career, the book tells the story of the later life of this most significant XK 120. The book includes a wealth of period photographs as well as a portfolio of magnificent studio images

Jaguar XK120, XK140, XK150 Sports Cars
Jaguar XK120, XK140, XK150 Sports Cars
No sports-car introduction in history has had the impact of Jaguar's XK120 in 1948. Thrust into a dreary post-war world was a stunningly gorgeous roadster, its styling inspired by the best pre-war Italian design, powered by a magnificent 3.5-liter in-line six developing 160 horsepower. Its twin-cam hemispherical-chamber head was a dramatic advance for British production cars. Exotic cars all, the XK-series of sports Jaguars are among the world's most glamorous. Rare photos from the Ludvigsen Library trace their history on road and track and give an intimate portrait of the sports cars that raised the bar for Jaguar's opposition and cemented the company's reputation for fast, stylish cars that were also remarkably affordable.

Jaguar XK140/150 In Detail
Jaguar's series of XK sports cars used the remarkable twin overhead camshaft engine that was first exposed to the public in 1948 in the new XK120, which took the motoring world by storm. For 1954 the XK120 was replaced by the XK140 model, with an increase in power, optional overdrive and a roomier cockpit. The XK150 arrived in 1957 - with disc brakes on all wheels, up to 265bhp and a completely new body. This book opens with an exposition of the background to the introduction of the XK140. Then comes a technical analysis of the new car. This sets the scene for the coverage of the XK150. Major production changes are recorded, and production and sales worldwide are analyzed in depth.

Jaguar/Daimler XJ40: The Essential Buyer's Guide
Jaguar/Daimler XJ40: The Essential Buyer’s Guide
The XJ40 had a long development history and underwent sophisticated and thorough testing on several continents. Featuring an array of high-tech features such as a digital dashboard, it drove superbly and won the UK's prestigious 'Car of the Year' award. Most early cars have gone to the crusher by now, and those that remain are of variable quality. Even the last XJ40s are now 14 years old and can suffer terminal decline. For the careful buyer, however, they represent true bargain luxury cars, provided you buy a good example. This book will help you pick a sound car and avoid the depressing experience of buying a superficially pretty XJ40, which turns out to have serious problems through neglect or wear. It takes you step by step through your initial viewing and a more detailed inspection, where each aspect of the car is given an objective numerical score reflecting its condition, with the total overall score supporting your decision to buy or walk away. There is no safer way to avoid buying a bad car short of paying for a professional evaluation.

Jeep CJ 1972-1986: How to Build & Modify
Jeep CJ 1972-1986: How to Build & Modify
Identifying the Jeep CJ series vehicles as the most popular off-road vehicles of all time may actually qualify as an understatement. They really are that popular. The CJ series arguably started after World War II with the CJ-2A being introduced to the masses, and while the early CJs have their share of enthusiasts, the largest group of enthusiasts began their love affair with the AMC-powered Jeep CJ-5s beginning in 1972. Joined by the longer-wheelbase CJ-7 models introduced in 1976, the CJ models were wildly popular through their discontinuation in 1986, when the Wrangler was introduced. These were the only models originally equipped with V-8 engines in any meaningful way. This era combined the ruggedness of the early Jeeps with some of the advancements and horsepower of a more modern era; it makes a platform that is both fun to own and to modify. In Jeep CJ 1972-1986: How to Build & Modify, Jeep guru Michael Hanssen covers all of the systems that can be upgraded to improve your Jeep's performance. Upgrades include suspension components such as springs, shocks, and steering modifications; driveline components including differentials, transmissions, transfer cases, and axles; engine upgrades including engine swaps; wheel and tire upgrades; aftermarket accessories; armor such as skid plates and bumpers; brake upgrades; and more. Whether you are looking to get into serious off-roading or just want to make your classic CJ a little more fun, this book will be a valuable tool in your shop or library.

Jeep CJ-5 & CJ-7 4x4 Performance Portfolio 1987-1999
Jeep CJ-5 & CJ-7 4×4 Performance Portfolio 1987-1999
The 4x4 market changed in the 1960s, from utility to one with an increasing emphasis on the leisure market. In the 1970s the CJ range was aimed more at the recreational sector and the CJ-7 was designed with more room, simpler transmission and an automatic gearbox. The CJ-5 took on some of these extra features and until 1983 the two models were developed very much in parallel. Special package versions were issued to please buyers. The Wrangler took over from the CJ in 1986. This is a book of road and comparison tests, specification and technical data, new model intro's, off-road reports. Jeep models covered include: 4, 6, and 8-cylinders, Renegade, Golden Eagle, Diesel, Limited, Overlander.
