Description
This is an incredible, mostly original 1955 Jagar XK-140 MC/SE Open Two Seater / Roadster. This car was delivered in 1955 to the first owner in Pacific Palisades, CA. I am the second owner and purchased the car from the original owner in 2012. The car spent its entire life in California until I moved it to NY. The original 1955 california black plates are included. The car is meticulously documented. I have every service record, every registration, every receipt - since 1955. It has the original manual, tool roll, cockpit cover, top, spare, windscreens. I also have the COA from Jaguar confirming its numbers matching.
The MC/SE package includes wire wheels, the Jaguar C-type racing head, dual exhaust and windshield wipers and squirters.
The car was painted in the late 80's in the original black. Its a really nice paint job but is nearly 30 years old so it has the expected light scratches and a few very small dings. A professional buffing would make it look like new.
The seats were recovered by Basset's and the carpets were done but the rest of the interior is totally original. Everything else is original. I have, but do not run the original wire wheel. I run Dayton's replicas which are great - the original wheels are of course included in this auction. I also do not run the original radiator - I run an aluminum radiator, but the original radiator, hoses and clamps were all functioning fine when I removed them and they are included in the auction.
The car was extensively serviced mechanically by Donovan's Motorsports in Lennox, MA and I have more than $10,000 in receipts from them. Donovan's does all of my service each year and has since I bought it.
Everything on the car works except the clock and I have never put windshield washer fluid in it, so I dont know if the squirters work. All other gauges and lights work as they should.
Car has new radial tires. Runs and sounds fantastic. Rides smooth, brakes strong. Comes with a couple Simpson Lap Belts that are quick release removable with no visable hardware. The car has a dealer installed antenna, but the stereo it had when I bought it was a modern, inapproapriate thing so I removed it. Has no radio/stereo at this point but has the mount/wiring for it.
The boot area is in fantastic original shape. As is the spare wheel adn it has the orignal spare tire.
I have a clear title and it is currently registered and insured in NY.
If you are looking for a beautiful, well maintained and wonderfully running Jag that you can drive - This is the one. It's nearly original condition is one of the most incredible things about this car.
The auction includes all of the original documentation, receipts, registrations, etc Also includes the radiator and wheels as I mentioned above. Car is available to test drive by appointment only in the Albany, NY area.
