 This historic race prepared car, with Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate, is to all intents and purposes a brand new car with no more than shake-down mileage on the clock and registered 4264 WK – the works number issued to the original car when was built in March 1963.
4264 WK, a semi-lightweight, was originally a left-hand drive Flat Floor Coupe and the original body, cut back to bare metal could be restored as a spare or retained as an historic item in un-restored condition. The original owner was Dr. Woody Heron of Mississipi, USA, and a copy of the original registration from the Coventry City Archive comes with the new style DVLA V5C certificate. See www.xkedata.com car no: 888401 The car, painted ‘race weight’ light blue, is now rebuilt and weights (Oulton Park Gold Cup scrutineering weighbridge Aug 2006)just a shade under 1,000 Kilos dry weight with a brand new Martin Robey steel body and an array of modern fast road/race upgrades which include: - • All new body shell and front frames

The car could quickly and simply be modified to full FIA spec. This car is without doubt a potential race winner tomorrow at a completely sensible price – in fact half what it would cost to create today.
