    Sellers description:
    The 1956 Jaguar XK140MC Roadster featured here with matching numbers and a C-Type head is available in an extremely desirable black with red interior. A gorgeous and coveted color scheme. It comes equipped with a manual transmission, dual carburetors, wire wheels with white wall tires and includes the soft top and side curtains. Excellent original car. Same owner since 1963. Excellent candidate for a light restoration. For $69,500

    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?
