Car History

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

HD Morocco, USA, Holland

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.

Features donnington steering wheel, brass plate on radiator stating that it was once repaier ( summer 1957) in Little Rock Ark. Is assumend to be sent to marroco before the states. It returned to europ in 1985 and was bought by me in jan 1996 ( nothing was done to it in the mean time. The body was ok, I spent 5 years rebuilding it and you are never ready. I do not have a sert. but know that the care was produced in the second half of august 1953. Dutch plate AH-17-45. driven about 9000 miles since rebuild ( dec 06). Longest trip:. Mid France. participated in several tours by the XK club
