Car offered at:
www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/jaguar/xk/2317349.html

Seller's description:
Auction: Oct 12, 2019
Location: New York, New York, 10016
Stock #: 138
VIN #: S811599
Condition: Excellent

This particular XK 140 is called the MC (Modified Competition) Model or the SE (Special Equipment). It has the C-Type head, high-performance cams, uprated suspension, special driving lights, and chrome wire wheels. The paint is bright red and the leather is tan. This car underwent a most thoughtful & comprehensive restoration. Included are invoices for 1,234.25 hours of frame-off/ground-up restoration from The Classic Car Co.of Tennessee, which does not include a documented engine re-build by XKs Unlimited of California. All aspects of this fine motorcar are original and or period correct. This restoration was completed in 1991 with very few miles added since, mainly because the owner of this car had four other classic British sports in his collection to drive! The odometer shows 76,840 miles.

This XK 140 car is in excellent overall condition and has not been offered for sale for many years. It was entered into the Shelter Island Car Show in 2018 where it competed against one hundred other collector cars and won ''Best in Show''!
