    Delivered to Hoffmans in New York on the 30th

    September 1952.

    This is an unrestored example, in excellent condition mechanically, having had over £15k Spent recommissioning it and fitting sensible upgrades ensuring totally reliable motoring. These include, electronic ignition, High output alternator, Positive earth, new Aluminium petrol tank, new fuel pipes, rebuilt brakes, Aluminium radiator, new coolant pipes, new facet fuel pump, fully rebuilt 2" SU Carbs, not the standard smaller carbs, this give a big increase in torque and midrange. Re-trimmed cockpit roll, new tonneau cover, new radial tyres, electric fan, Stainless steel exhaust, heater drained and serviced and works perfectly. Bills for all work provided and work done by the leading XK Specialist.

    This example drives beautifully, sounds wonderful and is structurally perfect. Paintwork is crazed and aged.

    This car is ready to get in and drive anywhere and enjoy. It is not a perfect restored car. But it retains ALL of its original numbered parts, has the all important Heritage Certificate confirming this. This is U.K, registered car.

    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?
