Product Overview
This is an original vintage operating, maintenance, and service handbook for Jaguar XK 140 models (c. 1954-1957), covering the Open Two Seater (Roadster), Fixed Head Coupe (Hardtop), and Drophead Coupe. Published by Jaguar Cars Ltd. (Coventry, England), this softcover manual provides comprehensive technical instructions, mechanical photos, chassis diagrams, and component service guides.
Crucially, this copy includes the rare, original fold-out "Jaguar XK140 Maintenance Chart" bound at the back, featuring a full chassis lube map, fluid capacity tables, and recommended lubricant specifications. Front cover bears a handwritten notation ("Side Curtain # 0708"). Condition shows authentic shop use, cover smudging, and water tide-marks along the lower/outer margins that do not obscure text or technical diagrams.
