    1955 RHD Jaguar XK140 DHC
    We are pleased to be in the position to offer this beautiful Jaguar XK140 DHC for sale

    This car was produced in 1955 and sold in the US. In the late eighties it was shipped to Northern Ireland where the car underwent a full body off restoration which, according to the accompanying paperwork took three years and was carried out by Classic Marques N.I. Ltd. This process included the conversion to right hand drive.

    Over the years further upgrades where fitted to the car which include the following:

    Lightened Flywheel
    Fast Road Cam
    Light weight tappets
    Alternator
    Electronic ignition
    5 Speed Gearbox
    2" SU Carburettors
    Power Steering with electric power steering pump
    Kenlowe electric cooling fan and controls
    High flow oil pump
    Electric Water pump
    Pedal box
    All these upgrades make the car a very drivable car in today's traffic.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
