Auction description:
The Monterey Sports and Classic Car Auction
Friday, August 13, 2004 - Saturday, August 14, 2004 1956 Jaguar XK 140MC Roadster
ESTIMATE: $60,000 - $80,000
CHASSIS NO: 5811982

Three Owners From New offered here is one of the desirable XK 140MC models fitted with the competition C-Type heads, competition carburetor and dual exhaust. It has been part of the current owner’s collection since 1979 and is now just an impressive three owners from new. Fitted with the attractive Brooklands racing screens, louvered bonnet with leather strap and four Borrani wire wheels, this race inspired XK is a highly presentable example that shows quite well for a car that was restored over 25 years ago. While there is some blemishing in the paint, it is less than one would expect for a car restored so long ago. Additionally, the owner reports that the Jaguar has seen rain no more than two times since he assumed ownership and this has likely added to its overall presentation.

This lovely Jaguar is finished in a sleek silver and is trimmed in a handsome maroon leather interior. The dash and gauges all appear very presentable while the engine, bay and underbody are in tidy condition though displaying signs of road use.

Three Owners From New

Offered here is one of the desirable XK 140MC models fitted with the competition C-Type heads, competition carburetor and dual exhaust. It has been part of the current owner's collection since 1979 and is now just an impressive three owners from new. Fitted with the attractive Brooklands racing screens, louvered bonnet with leather strap and four Borrani wire wheels, this race inspired XK is a highly presentable example that shows quite well for a car that was restored over 25 years ago. While there is some blemishing in the paint, it is less than one would expect for a car restored so long ago.

This lovely Jaguar is finished in a sleek silver and is trimmed in a handsome maroon leather interior. The dash and gauges all appear very presentable while the engine, bay and underbody are in tidy condition though displaying signs of road use. This XK 140MC has a great look to it displaying both its stately British lines combined with a ferocious look of its racing heritage and it will undoubtedly prove itself on the road with ease and distinction.
