1955 Jaguar XK-140
Sure like all the posting you are doing, Did you do all these in 1 day, or has it rained a lot? Bob
There's no confusing the lines on the older Jags. Gorgeous car.
All of the photos in this series were taken the same morning. It was an all day, steady, soaking rain, heavy at times.

I have quite a few more cars & boats to go in the series.
Hi KYJohnson..... I for one, have enjoyed each image that you have posted from this series. Keep 'em coming!
I have a '69 XKE and she don't go out in the rain. LOL
What I really like about all these pictures is...no people. Rain must have scared them all off. I don't usually like people in my pictures which is hard to achieve at most car shows. Great pictures of some nice classic cars.

Great looking Jag and shots (my father had an XK150S and I had a 3.8 MKII). I didn’t know the XK140 had side curtains.

These are kind of unique in that respect, the parking lot for this event was almost empty when I got there in the morning (although it was full when I left a few hours later). Also, when I took most of these, they were lined up on three different streets waiting to be introduced into the staging area on the main street of the town.
I have never seen any other photos of these kinds of cars in the rain. Some of them are worth well over a million $ each and I was surprised the owners were allowing them to get not only wet, but absolutely drenched.
