Sellers description:
Solid '55 Jaguar XK140 OTS Roadster finished in classic British Racing Green over Natural Tan leather interior with Green carpets, Beige soft top and side curtains, powered by its original numbers matching 3442cc DOHC I6, 4 speed manual transmission, dual exhaust, wire wheels and wide whitewall bias-ply tires. This XK140 is an unrestored, unmolested survivor and does show its age. The paint is less than perfect and is cracking in some areas, most notably on the rear trunk lid but overall it shows well and could be considered a solid "driver". For the most part the interior is in good condition with no rips or tears although the carpeting, albeit in decent condition, is faded in most areas. The Beige canvas soft top is in similar condition as the rest of the car, complete, but showing age. All of the hardware is there and complete. The soft top frame is in good condition and operates as it should. The Beige canvas side curtains are complete and in good condition showing no rips or tears. The glass is also in good condition. Overall this XK140 is a complete and original solid driver car that starts right up and drives great.
