289-Powered 1955 Jaguar XK140 Roadster Project

This 1955 Jaguar XK140 Roadster is a charming British classic powered by an unusual yet distinctive feature - a robust 289ci Ford V8 engine installed in the 1970s. Manufactured in 1955, this roadster was once finished in metallic maroon with tan leather interior, though its color may have changed over time. It has undergone various modifications such as the installation of a C4 automatic transmission, 16-inch wire wheels for a touch of vintage charm, Wilwood front disc brakes for enhanced safety, and wood interior trim along with adjustable seats to ensure passengers' comfort during cruises through the scenic roads of Chico, California. Currently residing in the United States, this unique XK140 is now actively sought on Bring A Trailer as a premier project car, with its current bid standing at USD $6,350.
