I have a 56 Jaguar XK140MC FHC with an automatic trans that was originally sold in Beverly Hills. I'm trying to find about its history - any suggestions.
Larry,
Welcome to the group. The Classic Jaguar Association has an XK-140 Register, and the Registrar keeps track of all -140's that register with him. You can find the website at "http://www.classicjaguar.org/">http://www.classicjaguar.org/(You'll see my red XK-150 on the home page.) Join if you see fit!
You can contact the XK-140 Registrar, and either get information on your car, if he has any information, or give him your information to get you car on the Register. I hope this helps, Bob Gillette
