Presented before you is a stunningly restored 1956 Jaguar XK140 Drophead Coupe. This meticulous restoration encompassed a comprehensive mechanical overhaul, coupled with a full-body and interior restoration. Notably, the engine underwent a rebuild by a distinguished Chicago engine builder, whose expertise contributed to the car's remarkable condition. Unfortunately, we lost this talented builder a few years ago.

This XK140 Drophead Coupe serves as a fantastic example of the model, showcasing a largely complete and correct configuration. The restoration efforts have resulted in a car that not only impresses in its completeness but also stands out for its exceptional visual appeal. We have made every effort to present this early Jaguar transparently, allowing its true beauty and quality to shine through.
