    I know that this car was owned by Gerald and Kathy Nell of the Milwaukee area in the 1990's. Do not know if they still own it -- I see they recently sold XKC007 in California. I remember seeing this car in the early 1990's at the Chicago Jaguar Concours.

    Saw this car at the 2008 Going to the Sun Rally in Montana.

    As of the start of 2010 Kathy Nell still owned this car. Gerald passed away a couple years ago and Kathy has sold off his C type and D type at auction. She ran the XK-SS in the Colorado Grand, I believe, last year, so it is my hope that she hangs on to the car and enjoys it!

    The Nell XKSS was sold shortly after the C&D Tour in the spring of 2009

    Car owned by Peter Neumark of CMC. Nice article about the car in the May 2014 edition of the XK Gazette. Peter says it began life as XKD550.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
