Hello everyone,

Recently I have uncovered an XK 140 OTS vehicle that has been off the road for twenty years, the latter part in the proverbial farm shed.

It's chassis is S800040 and it is an original right-hand drive. Only 74 of these vehicles were ever made and this one was an original delivery to Sydney. It was configured with a 9:1 compression ratio, only one of two RHD with that ratio, and has a C-head and sandcast carburettors.

Most of this model made were LHD for the American market but some of the RHD did find their way to America.

If anyone can tell me of any of the 74 original RHD models they know of I would be very appreciative.

Many thanks,

Ken
