Car History

From The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere (2009) by Elmgreen & McGrath

USA, Singapore, France

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.

This car is mentioned in "XK Bulletin" September 1973, Vol5 No 9 with information from the then owner, Christopher Lister from New Jersey USA. He had just bought the car from Don Nattrass and mentioned that it was in superb condition having won the 1972 North American Concours with the highest points ever obtained. Don Nattrass had owned the car for 13 year and there had been one previous owner. There is a photo of the car accompanying the article.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
