    Lot 7

    1956 Jaguar XK140

    Chassis S 818123 DN

    Engine G 6411 8S

    Remarkably Original and Just Two Long-Term Owners from New

    Desirable High-Performance SE Model in Distinctive Colors

    Offered with Extensive Service Records and Purchase Documents

    Benefits from a Recommission by CKL Developments in 2021

    Retains Matching-Numbers Engine per Accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate

    Accompanied by Rare Factory Spare Parts Kit

    According to its accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate, this XK140 was completed on November 9, 1956, finished in Pastel Blue with a red leather interior and equipped with a French Grey soft top. An SE model, its options included the competition-inspired C-Type head, twin exhaust system, wire wheels with knock-offs, and twin fog lights. Sold through Jaguar Cars New York, the car’s first owner was Earl R. Lawson from Rochdale, Massachusetts. Through Jaguar specialist “Doc” Scadron, it was then sold to its second and current owner in 1994.

    Never fully restored and retaining a high level of originality, it has formed part of a fabulous collection of Jaguars. Preserving its remarkably original condition, the XK140 was recommissioned in 2021 by marque experts CKL Developments at a cost of approximately £45,000. For the collector searching for a high-performance SE model in original condition, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

    1956 Jaguar XK140 SE Drophead Coupe

    Chassis S 818123 DN

    Engine G 6411 8S

    According to its accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate, this XK140 was completed on November 9, 1956, finished in Pastel Blue with a red leather interior and equipped with a French Grey soft top. An SE model, its options included the competition-inspired C-Type head, twin exhaust system, wire wheels with knock-offs, and twin fog lights. Sold through Jaguar Cars New York, the car’s first owner was Earl R. Lawson from Rochdale, Massachusetts. Through marque specialist “Doc” Scadron, it was then sold to its second owner in 1994, a prominent Swiss collector with a passion for original Jaguars.

    Unrestored and retaining a high level of originality, this XK140 was displayed in the Postwar Preservation class at the 2023 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance® after being reliably driven by the consignor on the California Mille earlier that year. For the collector searching for a high-performance SE model in wonderfully original condition, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

    SOLD $84,000
