No, 87 with the Pininfarina-tweaked styling on the long wheelbase. The short wheelbase went away in 1978 for the sedans.

The short wheelbase chassis is what underpinned the XJS and in heavily modified form is under the XK8/R.

This one's mine:

I've currently got it apart to replace the transmission with a 700R4. I kind of blew up the Borg Warner M-66... one too many neutral drops shattered the input drum. :P
