And the car's improvements didn't end at the engine's specs. There's also the entire front clip out of a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro and has a nine-inch rear end. The XJ6  got his coilovers adjusted, a specific request from the future owner, who enjoys the racing.  AutotopiaLA shared a video with the owner to ask for a review of the Jaguar's performances, and the owner says that he reached his personal best quarter-mile time in the car in a 9.85-second run. That’s the "more than you think is capable of" about - supercar levels of performance in an XJ6.

Bigger modifications have been made to the front end of the car, where the standard hood was cut. The massive bulge you see was hand-fabricated to sit above the engine. Other special work has been done to the XJ’s cabin accordingly with the customer's desire. The Jaguar XJ6 features a bespoke leather-trimmed wheel and its entire new dashboard has been associated with bespoke gauges. Also, you can definitely notice racing harnesses and a full roll cage.
