Vehicle Description
Ahead Of It's Time... and A Red Hot Ride! This 1934 Ford "Jag-Rod
Show-Custom" coupe was originally designed, built and completed in
1982 by renowned and innovative custom car builder Ben Diener of
Dienerbilt Corp of Davie, Florida. Requiring over 7,000 man hours
of assembly, it's custom hand-built tube chassis, suspension,
braking, 1982 Jag 326cid V12 fuel injected power-train and cockpit
instruments were designed utilizing many of the components sourced
from a Series III Jaguar XJ-12...
Fast-Forward to 1995-96, this Award Winning show car was captured
by the team at Harbor Auto Restorations and was respectfully
transformed during a professional refurbishing. Tasteful body
modification's included shaving the Dienerbilt designed hammer-head
front spoiler & rear deck lid whale tail, installing modernized
chrome Halogen headlights and complete show quality Harbor Red
urethane paint re-finish. This re-tamed feline powered 34' Ford was
ready for the show circuit again!
In conclusion, the Jag-Rod, a Jaguar V12-Powered Ford 3-Window
Coupe, is a glorious amalgamation of British engineering and
American design. It's a car that would turn heads and set hearts
racing-a perfect example of the passion and ingenuity that drives
the world of automobiles. (Note: This closing paragraph's
