Seller's description:
FOR SALE IN THIS VERY SPECIAL XK140.
FULLY MATCHING NUMBERS AND REGISTERED AS AN HISTORIC VEHICLE, SO TAX AND MOT EXEMPT.
THIS IS THE TOP OF THE RANGE SPECIAL EQUIPMENT MODEL, WITH THE C TYPE ENGINE AND ALL THE AVAILABLE OPTIONS AVAILABLE AT THE TIME.
ITS BEEN A CALIFORNIA CAR ITS ENTIRE LIFE BEING SOLD BY HORNSBURG JAGUAR LOS ANGELES IN 1955.
THE DEALERSHIP WAS IN HOLLYWOOD AT THAT TIME.
THIS CAR WAS PUT AWAY IN THE LATE EIGHTIES WHERE IT SAT UNTIL IT WAS DISCOVERED IN AN ESTATE SALE.
IT IS ROCK SOLID WITH NO STRUCTURAL RUST OR ANY NEED OF WELDING.
ITS NEVER BEEN DAMAGED OR RESTORED, SO A SURVIVOR CAR.
I THINK IT SHOULD REALLY BE RECOMMISSIONED AND USED AS IS RATHER THAN RESTORED .
I HAVE A V5 REGISTRATION LOG BOOK IN MY NAME.
WE HAVE HAD THE ENGINE RUNNING FROM A FUEL CAN AND PUMP AND IT SOUNDS GOOD.
