XJ Restorations - Keith Parrington

[PJAB]

Hi

I watched fascinating video recently about a very early XJ Series 1. A lot of work had been done on it by a guy called Keith Parrington at XJ Restorations.

Are these guys still in business - and if not does anyone know where Keith is now working?

I tried to Google and called the number shown - but the line just rang off immediately - and there doesn’t seem to be a website any more.

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter,
I'm pretty sure he ran this business along side XJ Restorations,the web page seems to still be in use:

Good luck.

HI AJP

That would make sense - I know of that other business from the YouTube video that I referred to and from the Harry’s Garage videos about the restomod of his V12 XJC. I’ll call on Monday and see if Keith is involved - it’s good to know where these experts are ahead of when you desperately need them!

Thanks and all the best

Peter,

Keith is very much still around with his business as detailed above. I was talking with just this Friday. It depends in what context you want to consider his services. He very much focuses on bodywork and paint now and doesn't get involved in the oily bits of Jaguars these days. But if you want to talk about the bodywork on your car, it would be worth giving him a call.

Cheers

Hi PJTS

Cool - I will focus my discussions with him on bodywork then.

Thanks and all the best

Peter
