This 1956 Jaguar XK140 Drophead Coupe, painted in Old English
White, exemplifies British automotive craftsmanship. A production
record trace certificate accompanies this XK140, confirming its
authentic heritage. The sleek body lines flow gracefully from the
iconic Jaguar grille to the sculpted rear, accentuated by chrome
bumpers and wire wheels wrapped in 6.00-R16 97Q tires. The tan
cloth convertible top provides versatility, allowing open-air
cruising or enclosed comfort.
Inside, the tan leather interior exudes luxury. Bucket seats with a
floor-mounted shifter offer a driver-focused layout. The Moto-Lita
wood-rimmed steering wheel adds a touch of sportiness while
maintaining the classic aesthetic. Custom floor mats protect the
carpeting, blending practicality with style. The simple yet elegant
dashboard houses essential gauges, keeping the driver informed
without unnecessary clutter.
The 3.4-liter inline-six engine matches the data tag and Production
Record Trace certificate. This powerplant breathes through twin SU
carburetors, delivering smooth acceleration. The four-speed manual
transmission, numbered JL34422CR, also aligns with the vehicle's
documentation. Performance upgrades include Wilwood front disc
brakes for improved stopping power, electric power steering for
effortless maneuvering, and an electric cooling fan with an updated
radiator to maintain optimal operating temperatures. The dual
exhaust system provides a fitting soundtrack for this classic
Jaguar.
