AI Listing Summary

This 1955 Jaguar XK140 Drophead Coupe, owned for 24 years, features a Cotswold Blue repaint, Biscuit leather interior, and a rebuilt 3.4-liter inline-six with a four-speed manual transmission. Although refurbished in the 2000s, the odometer and fuel gauge are inoperative, and true mileage is unknown, potentially affecting its value.

Condition 

7

The car underwent a refurbishment that was completed in 2008, including rust repair, a repaint, interior retrimming, and mechanical rebuilds. While the refurbishment suggests a solid condition, the presence of an inoperative odometer and fuel gauge, along with the seller's statement that the odometer reading is inaccurate, indicates some existing issues. The overall description points to a car in 'Very Good' condition, with some wear but no major damage.

This 1955 Jaguar XK140 Drophead Coupe was purchased by the seller as a project from the reported original owner in 2001, and a subsequent refurbishment was completed in 2008.

Work involved repainting the car in Cotswold Blue, replacing the Sand soft top, retrimming the Biscuit leather upholstery, refinishing the wood dashboard, rebuilding the 3.4-liter inline-six and the four-speed manual transmission, and overhauling the chassis.

Features include 16″ wire wheels, dual SU carburetors, a dual exhaust system, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and lap belts.

This XK140 is now offered with refurbishment records and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The car was stripped, rust was repaired, and the body was repainted in Cotswold Blue during the aforementioned 2000s...
