This 1955 Jaguar XK140 roadster was the recipient of a high-quality restoration in the early '90s. It benefited from an up-rated 3.4-liter 190hp DOHC inline-6 engine with rack & pinion steering in place of the 120's recirculation ball system, along with even more robust safety bumpers and increased interior room. It is finished in Silver over a black leather interior with red piping and rolls on correct knock-off wire wheels that have been chromed. The look is further complemented by period Lucas driving lamps. Considered by many to be the ultimate XK, this XK140 blends the lines of the original 120 with some of the increased performance and improved real world usability found in the later 150, but not as stylish. From The Bill Barker Collection.
Powered by a 3.4-liter 190hp DOHC inline-6 engine and 5-speed manual transmission. Restored in the early '90s. Has rack & pinion steering, telescopic shock absorbers at all four corners, black leather interior with red piping and knock-off wire wheels.
Sold $79,200
