Lot 371
1957 Jaguar XK140 MC Fixed Head Coupe
Chassis no. S815179
Engine no. G6400-8S
• 3,442cc inline six-cylinder
• Four-speed manual gearbox
• Optional 'MC' model with C-type head
• Former JCNA show car
• Lovely patina inside and out
• Long-term ownership
The title of this numbers-matching, 64,000-mile XK140 MC fixed-head coupe displays names of the the original and second owners, plus it has a letter of authenticity from Jaguar (pre-dating Heritage Certificates) confirming the original owner. The most recent owner had this XK in his possession for the last 45 years. He used Connolly Hide Food "little and often," perfectly preserving the natural patina that cannot be duplicated with a restored interior. Included in the sale are the original keys with numbers inscribed, original tool roll, original owner's manual, original work order for the leaper, and original radio. With awards in both JCNA Concours 20 years ago and JCNA Best in Class Driven Class winner last year, you know this XK140 MC has the potential to be either driven or shown, offering the purchaser the best of both worlds.
Estimate:
US$ 65,000 - 75,000
£41,000 - 47,000
€49,000 - 56,000
