The XK140 drop head coupes are only going up in value and this 1956 XK140 DHC is fully matching number car, it has the C-type head, the twin exhausts, the fog lamps, the window washers and the high performance engine. It is red with a black interior, the same as it was from the factory. The gentleman we obtained the car from had owned it for 45 years. One of the valves went on the original C-type head. Instead of rebuilding the head the owner installed another head from a late XK120 and it is very similar to the original head, as it was a special equipment head for a high performance engine. The owner did save the original head and we have it and it will be included with the car when sold. About 10 years ago the owner had the engine rebuilt with the XK120 head on it. The car can be used the way it is or you can rebuild the head and install it down the road. The car is very complete. The only thing that appears to be missing is the tools and the jack. We have the Jaguar Heritage Certificate for the car in hand. Since these cars are getting very difficult to find this is a great opportunity to obtain one at reasonable price for restoration. We ship world wide and can assist in finding a shipper if needed. Transportation to the nearest port, Elizabeth, NJ, is $400.00. If you have any questions, call Dan at 001-781-630-0185 or Ray at 001-617-838-3728.

Jaguar F-Type Project 7 takes the D-Type to the 21st Century
Sat, 16 Aug 2014One of the many big name debuts during the 2014 Monterey car week is this, the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, a stunning roadster inspired by Jaguar's legendary, finned D-Type sports car.
The Project 7 expands on the already appealing F-Type Convertible formula, further boosting the Jaguar Land Rover 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 to its most potent form yet - 575 horsepower - making this the most powerful production Jag in history. So equipped, the Project 7 is more cheetah than jaguar, roaring to 60 miles per hour in a rapid 3.8 seconds before reaching its electronically limited peak speed of 186 miles per hour.
Prices for the F-Type Project 7 start at $165,000, with customer deliveries slated begin in spring of 2015.
Lapping Le Mans with 1956's version of a dash cam
Wed, 01 May 2013Mike Hawthorne and Ivor Bueb won The 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1955 driving a Jaguar D-Type. The following year, a few days before the race, a British broadcaster put cameras on Hawthorne's car, hung a mic from a plate on his race suit and had him narrate a lap of the Circuit de la Sarthe.
It is compelling viewing. A new pit complex was built after the massive accident on the front straight in 1955, but this was still a time when crews prepped for the race on roads that were open to the public. Hawthorne's lap includes maneuvers to avoid bicyclists and cars, and gems like letting us know that doing 185 miles per hour down the Mulsanne Straight was where you could "relax a little, recover your energy." Watch him work it like the men of old in the video below.
2019 Jaguar XJ Collection Special Edition is a 300-unit curtain call
Tue, Nov 19 2019The current 2019 Jaguar XJ is effectively a lame duck, as we have previously reported production ended in July, 2019, and a new all-electric model is on the way. But before it's sent into the archives, Jaguar designed one last special-edition variant to celebrate the luxury sedan. It's called the XJ Collection Special Edition, and it's limited to 300 examples exclusively for the U.S. market. Matching the car's personality, the overall package is quite low-key. The exterior of the XJL can been draped in Yulong White, Santorini Black or British Racing Green (the obvious choice) and wears 20-inch five-spoke wheels with a satin gray finish. A "Collection" badge on the rear deck lid signifies the limited nature of the vehicle. The white or black models can be paired with Ebony/Ebony or Mineral/Ivory interiors, while the Green models can only be paired with an Ebony/London Tan interior. All examples will have door paneling in a gloss rich oak veneer with exclusive linear laser inlay. Jaguar also used "XJ Collection" branding on the metal tread plates, and an "XJ Collection One of 300" "intaglio" tags the dashboard. All 300 units start with the rear-drive long-wheelbase XJL Supercharged. That means all 300 have 470 horsepower and 424 lb-ft of torque, so its sleeper status remains. The XJ Collection Special Edition lists at $86,025, including destination.
