  • To buy a little brother?

    Alright...I've decided I need to add to my collection....a 82 XJ550 Maxim

    It doesn't run and has been sitting. The clutch didn't budge when I pulled it in. It has 20,000 miles and looks half decent.

    Is it worth the initial 500 bucks to fix up my little brother?

    I could probably get the guy down to 350 cash, is it worth it then? What am I getting myself into?

    Make sure the engine will turn over. If it does do a compression test on it. If thats good the the pice might be woth it (its always better if you can get it for less).
