Ebay item 7/11/13
cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jaguar-xk-140-120-parts-car-frame-hood-/281134100194
Opening bid $3,995, no bids 6 days left in auction. Note, parts and photos for two cars are listed.
Sellers description:
Nice Jaguar XK 140 roadster hood 60" tall and trunk lid in very good condition, XK 140 front clip in fair condition needing some work, A rusty bulkhead, XK 140 frame in very good condition with number 807075, XK 140 rear section of frame in good condition. XK 120 rusty rear section, XK 120 frame in very good condition.The number on frame is half stamped so I have a hard time reading the number (I listed a picture). The XK 120 frame has a crossmember that was half cut out. You get all items sold as is. Please look at pictures I think that the parts listed are of correct models of XK's. Parts have no paper work. The items are located outside Buffalo, New York.

Sellers description:
1955 XK140 Drop Head Coupe. We purchased this car from a fellow in upper state New York, who had full intentions of restoring it. A familiar story. The car left the factory as right hand drive XK140, the chassis number is 807075 and as you can see it was converted to a left hand drive car. The chassis number is the 75th right drive XK140 drop head coupe produced. The engine number of the car is G2702-8. The body # is P3387 and the gearbox number is JL17806. The chassis of the car is very solid. The doors and the rear clip are solid as well. The front clip is going to need work on it. The aluminum bonnet is in good shape. All the instruments and gauges are intact and correct for the car. The hood frame is in good order. We don't believe the seats to be original. We have a box of misc. bits and pieces that come with the car not shown. The car is being sold for restoration. It steers and rolls fine so it can be transported easily. A clear title is in hand.
