    The Jaguar XK140 Drop Head Coupe upgraded to 3.8 litre offered here at Autostorico was first registered on 14th December 1955 as 156JRF ‘Chassis No: 807248.’ Supplied new by Hewitts Garage, Stourbridge to its first owner Mr Thomas Nicklin of Stourbridge, Worcestershire, this genuine home market car is finished in Regency Red with Tan leather interior.

Works included a bare metal respray, mechanical overhaul along with fitting a five-speed gearbox for more relaxed high speed touring. Other features include an Alloy radiator along with header tank, Kenlowe fan, upgraded starter motor, 16” chrome wire wheels, Nardi wood rim steering wheel with power steering, front and rear disc brake conversion, Unleaded fuel cylinder head ported and polished, alternator conversion, battery cut off switch, full stainless steel exhaust system and fitted luggage.

    Boasting an extensive history file including a Jaguar heritage certificate, original buff logbook, previous MOT’s, and numerous invoices.

    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?
