From The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere (2009) by Elmgreen & McGrath
Brazil, fate unknown
John Elmgreen (from Sydney, Australia) and Terry McGrath (Perth, Western Australia) have been extreme XK enthusiasts since the 1970s if not before. In 1985 they published "The Jaguar XK in Australia". It was described by Alan Clark (Jaguar expert, historian, Minister in the UK Thatcher government) as amongst Jaguar books "my own personal favourite" and by Jaguar automobilia expert Ian Cooling as a superb book standing "supreme in the Jaguar library as a testament to years of diligent research and scholarship". Terry McGrath is also co-author of the monumental "Forerunners of Jaguar in Australasia and SE Asia". The new book "The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere" is to be followed in due course by XK140 and XK150 volumes.

Is this not an international forum?, like the understanding that internet is not national?
Why post if not in english? hot tip, just call each other next time...

Yes this is an international forum, so what is your problem?
This forum is about XK models and any information I can give or receive furthering my restoration no matter what the source is welcomed.
Hot tip, the whole world is not in your time zone, so make sense when you post and maybe learn to use a translator.
