This review is from: Original Jaguar Xk: The Restorers Guide to Jaguar Xk120, Xk140 and Xk150 (Hardcover)
Phillip Porter is a recognized expert on the Jaguar XK series. His book, suplemented by excellent photos, details each version of the car with text and photos. For anyone restoring an XK series Jaguar, the photos are a rich source of originality information highlighting differences between the various models. This book is well worth purchasing.
