My dad once had a Corvair Monza with the 180HP turbo charged engine, and he swears it was the best handling and most fun car he had ever driven. BUT, coming down a long hill, in the rain, it wouldn’t stop soon enough to miss another wreck in front of him, and it was totaled. But he kept the drivetrain. Being an engineer, and Army officer, he had the means to do something cool with it, so he ordered a dune buggy kit and put that 180HP engine in a car that ended up weighing a little under 1500lbs! That’s one helluva power to weight ratio! As far as wheelies, well my older brothers had to put broken up cinder blocks in the tiny front compartment, and they even put heavier front wheels and tires in the front to keep it down. I remember hanging on for dear life sitting on a life preserver cushion and holding onto that roll bar while the front end bounced around under hard acceleration. They really started out in second gear most of the time, and the exhaust pipes would always get kinked acting as wheelie bars. It was never street legal, no blinkers, and the headlights rarely worked after so many hard landings. That car was nothing but hysterical laughs driving around on property we had out on Wadamalaw Island here near Charleston, SC. Since we moved a fair bit, it sat a little too long and the engine got frozen by rust, as the salt marsh was very close by. A sad ending, but fun while it lasted! Imagine 180HP, rear engined, and less than 1500 pounds on the street. It was white, never properly painted, fiberglass bucket seats with no cushions, barely stopped, with first gear working better, and was always sideways or wheels up. Crazy times. I swear I had more insane adventures by the time I was 13 than anyone else I’ve very met! It’s in the blood, for sure.

The first time I saw the XKE was as a kid when I moved into CT back in 1974. The father of who would become my best childhood friend owned a powder blue/black/black 12cyl. convertible. As a kid it was the first time I saw a car that I could call beautiful. To this day there is no other car that to me is as strikingly beautiful no matter what year model XKE I’m looking at. They are gorgeous from literally every angle. What really tells the tail of its genuine beauty of design is how many other car company owners/founders/designers historically, even the likes of Enzo Ferrari himself the producer of some incredible designs, agree that it’s the most beautiful car ever made. That includes all the one off “special” designs. Just an amazingly timeless definition of genuinely functional automotive artwork. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

I’m glad they showed his dune buggy as much as they did. I remember those when I was younger. We sat at the same intersection downtown and looked at Dotties about five days ago. I’ve never been there before and I said to my wife I’d like to buy the neon sign off the front of it. Only about a half an hour away is Galena Illinois, which is famous for being general grants town, where he owned a store. It is a hilly part of north western Illinois that is jaw-droopingly gorgeous. Only 10 minutes away is an area called the territories that is a development for people with money. A lot of golf courses on the rolling Hills and something for everybody to experience there.

Our next door neighbor, Bill Willer (long since deceased) had two cars he constantly worked on. Our driveways were connected. He used both cars for drag racing. He had a yellow 67 Camero and a 69 Jaguar XKE. The Jag had a 6 cylinder and the Camero had a high rise on top of a 454. I never saw him race, but he said the Jag was much faster. He was always wrenching on both of them. My brother married his sister.

Sedan means that there are B pillars, and convertibles don’t have B pillars, generally. A four door without B pillars is called a hardtop, and those are quite desirable, A two door without B pillars is a two door coupe, and a two door with B pillars is a two door sedan. A four door with B pillars is a four door sedan. FYI, the roof supports at the windshield are A pillars, the ones at the back of the front doors would be B pillars, and the ones at the rear of the roof would be C pillars, and on a wagon, the most rearward ones would be, you guessed it, D pillars.
