    one of the finest examples of a completely restored 1957 Jaguar XK140 DHC vehicles available today. This vehicle literally has had every nut and bolt restored to as new condition. It only has a couple of miles put on it from being test driven from the shop that restored it. The restoration started two years ago and was completed by one of the finest restoration facilities in the pacific northwest. This was a complete rotisserie restoration. All parts were plastic media blasted and inspected, then powder coated and painted to exacting standards. The frame, suspension and all of the undercarriage received the same attention as the outside of the car. The motor and Transmition were completely built using oem parts. The interior and top are completely redone to original specs using the finest in materials. All the chrome was rechromed and polished to mirror condition. This car is actually in finer condition now than the day it rolled off the showroom floor. More than $150,000.00 was spent in restoration. The vehicle recently appraised for more than $180,000.00. This is the car you have been waiting for!

    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?
