Red with black top and tan interior. Originally a CA. car. This is a solid running and driving car. I have owned for 19+ years. During that time the car has always been garaged when not in use. It has a 1600 cc engine that has been rebuilt, including installation of hardened valve seats. Transmission has been rebuilt including replacement of the second gear synchronizing hub. Many hours of work have been spent replacing/refurbishing parts. Too many to list here. Call for a complete list. I’m not sure about the mileage on the vehicle. The odometer shows 6015. I have to believe the it has rolled once. Vehicle to be sold “as is”.

An Aston In Driver’s Condition

Posted on June 3, 2016 by Jeff

8 When it comes to old cars, there are usually only two states of condition: rust bucket and concourse ready. The rust buckets are old barn finds that have been decayed by nested rats and acid rain and can’t move under their own power. The concourse cars are restored above and beyond factory spec, and […]

Year: 1957 Make:Jaguar Model:XK-Series Trim:XK 140 FHC Mileage:14,366 Stock #:5740BW VIN:S5815740BW Trans:Automatic Color:White Vehicle Type:Coupe State:MD Drive Train:RWD Engine:3.4 Liter DOHC Notes Very solid restoration candidate of the timeless XK 140FHC. Just bought out of large private collection where it has been stored inside since 1988. Good history, showing car came from second owner who had since 1975. Matching # engine and transmission that we got started in a few days. Does need major service of course but excellent compression. Looks to have always been white with very straight rust free body and decent trim and glass. Car looks to have started restoration many years ago then owner just had too many cars to keep up and eventually passed away leaving several of his collection midway restored. Interior is all there except door panels but needs to be redone of course. All rockers and jams are solid as well as the trunk and floors. Engine compartment is decent but once gain needs finishing. Brakes had started a service then stopped but all parts are there. Underneath is very solid with pictures available upon request. Overall a good car that needs to be brought back to its former glory.
