1956 Jaguar XK140 MC Drophead Coupe 5-Speed

This 1956 Jaguar XK140 MC Drophead Coupe is finished in burgundy with a beige soft top over a beige leather interior and is powered by a 3. 4-liter inline-six paired with a replacement five-speed manual gearbox. The Drophead Coupe features an integrated windshield frame, roll-up side windows, exterior door handles, and an insulated convertible top with a plastic rear window. Braking is handled by front discs and rear drums. Beige leather covers the seats and door panels, while burgundy carpets line the floors. Lap belts have been added for both front occupants, and burled walnut dash and door caps are fitted. Cracks in the wood finish can be seen up close in the gallery. The four-spoke steering wheel fronts Smiths instrumentation including a reverse-sweep tachometer with a 5,500-rpm redline and an inset clock, a 140-mph speedometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, amperage, and fuel level. Just over 70k miles are shown on the five-digit odometer. Total mileage is unknown.
