Sellers description:
1956 Jaguar XK140 MC Fixed Head Coupe

Excellent Candidate for full Restoration. Ready For Sale, Title in Hand.

-- Chassis No. S815503DN
-- Engine No. G7382-8S

This is an original barn find near Chicago, Illinois. The original owner is unknown, yet since it's find in the early 1960's only three owners have had the car titled in their name. All are from the same family. The car has resided in Idaho since the early 1990's and was once owned by Orrin B. Cox. Cox served in WWII, went on to work in the FBI, Secret Service, then became an influential figure in the Idaho State Judicial Branch serving as a Judge for Canyon County in Southwest Idaho. The current owner and relative inherited the car in the early 2000's, enjoys driving it on occasion and has kept the vehicle well stored in covered, secure garage parking.

Car Plus Points:
This is the original paint job which has survived the decades with only a few minor abrasions. It is the very popular Jaguar Racing Green, which is still a classic shade and color today. Many of the original accessories are on the car. Even the original spare tire is in the trunk with the original spoke rims. Add to that a worn, but original owner's manual and original tool kit. It is very fun to drive and is always an attention grabber. The engine is in good shape, it runs fines.

Car Restoration Needs:
To bring this car up to mint condition the following points should be considered.

-- Electrical wiring, some things work, some don't
-- Minor abrasions on body paint, some touch up work only
-- All window molding needs replaced. It's currently worn and cracked
-- Small rock chip on front window, lower right side
-- Some service rust on floorboards under upholstery
-- Brake work. Brakes tend to pull to the left.
-- Possibly needs new alternator, although that could be electrical
-- Original wood dashboard is somewhat weathered
-- Under carriage needs cleaning, some, but has only a little rust

If you are willing to put some time, plus a bit of money and elbow grease into the car you can very easily bring it up to mint condition and have equity in the vehicle.

Priced at: $75,000.00

The car resides in Eagle, Idaho.
