This car was purchased in the early 2000's and built to compete on the track and all of the rally's that are around the world. It started out life as a 1954 Jaguar XK 140 Drop head coupe.When the car was brought to Minnesota it lookedlike it had chevy engine mounts but was without a motor. The history I have found about it says that it may have been raced in the Michigan or Ohio area.The color was red initially we believe but cannot confirm that. It was fully restored and converted to a right hand drive model here in the state of Minnesota. This car has a 3.8 Bill Terry competition dry sump Jaguar motor. It also sports a Jaguar transmission and differential. After completeion it was invited to attend the 60th Jaguar Anniversary at Monterey for the historics. As you can see from the pictures, this is a very well done restoration. Please contact me with any questions you may have. Thanks.
