*** NO RESERVE *** In 1997 our consignor purchased this 1957 Jaguar XK140 MC from the original owner. The car was ordered new with automatic transmission for the use of the original buyer’s wife. The wife used the car only locally as a shopping car until 1963 when someone hit the right-hand fender in a parking lot. At that time, the actual mileage was 5,430. The fender was poorly repaired using bondo and from then on in was parked in storage until my purchase. I decided to undertake a total restoration on the very low mileage vehicle. This restoration took 6 years. I then drove the car approximately 1,000 miles until having a stroke, which stopped my driving. The car, once more, was placed in storage. I moved to Palm Springs, California and had the car trucked to my new home. The car now has only 6,568 original miles.
