This is my favourite project. My aim is to make this old sports car go as fast as I can for as little as I realistically can. I had so much enjoyment with 'Project: Bratwurst' (see 'Past Projects' section of this website) that I wanted to build something else following the same ethos. But in order to be able to achieve this that heavy old Essex lump had to go! Hence the Jag V6 conversion.
The rest of the car needs work including a number of common repairs which I have detailed within the sections below so if you have a Scimitar that is suffering the more common ailments then take a look as you may find some useful info in there to help you.
