1956 JAGUAR XK 140, Brighton Motorsports is pleased to present this elegant 1956 Jaguar XK140 MC Fixed Head Coupe. This classic Jag is equipped with the special, must desired C-Type cylinder head that enables the massive inline 6 to produce a strong 210hp. The XK coupe is a beautiful representation of the curves that were unique to that era of automotive design. The name XK140 was derived from the cars ability to reach a top speed of 140mph in 1956!!! This example is wearing a new coat of Olde English White paint that has been expertly applied at our restoration facility. The original interior has been re-dyed in the factory correct red and is in excellent condition. In the early 70?s this car was freshened, driven, and then relinquished to storage in the late 1970s, right after the owner at the time came out from a Christmas party in Dallas and found both sides of the car keyed all the way down. We acquired it last year after it was stored for 30 years and began a light restoration. Our freshening included re-chroming all of the bright work (at a cost of $7k), new paint with the clearcoat mixed in for a period correct look, new fuel tank and lines, new radiator, we re-built the carburetors, installed a new water pump, new hoses, all the belts, and the brakes at each corner are new. The motor, clutch and transmission operate perfectly but the gearbox syncros could use some attention. You can drive the car as is or we can offer a re-build of the gearbox for a reduced rate to the new owner. The new tires are the same exact make and model of Pirellis that originally came with the car. The radio is left over from when the car was being used regularly in the 70s. This Jag would be a great addition to any collection. It presents as an EXCELLENT driver quality motorcar that has the nicest re-chrome we have ever seen and near flawless paint. This XK will provide its new owner with endless driving entertainment and classy looks. With the value of these models steadily rising there is no doubt it is a good investment that will appreciate during ownership.
