Additional description from above auction:

This car, chassis number 670060, is one of only 184 examples with left-hand drive in the coveted alloy fraternity. It was completed on December 19, 1949, and dispatched on January 11, 1950, to Charles Hornburg, the Los Angeles importer. The Jaguar was then delivered to a Mr. J.L. Albert through Clayrich Motors in St. Louis. As delivered, it was finished in black with a Biscuit and Pigskin interior and a black roadster top.

The car's older, rotisserie restoration is documented in an accompanying pictorial history. It has recently been given a cosmetic touch-up by Muncie Imports and Restoration, Jaguar specialists in Muncie, Indiana. This freshening has restored its original beauty. Its Heritage Certificate from the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust confirms that the restoration colors are as original. The present owner purchased the car in Pennsylvania in 2001; its former owners have included the well-known enthusiasts Terry Larson and Mark Smith.

Performance aside, the car is, in short, absolutely beautiful. The distinctive pressed steel wheels and rear-wheel spats add to its sleek design and its air of simplicity, giving substance to the axiom that the initial version of any design is always the best.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
