My "Hemmings" catalog came at 3:00PM today, looked in Jaguars. 57 XK140 Roadster, mint condition 21,000 miles, $18,000. Dropped everything. Too good to be true????? Backed up to trailer and called. Yep! Already sold for $150K two weeks earlier by on-line catalog, misprinted in printed catalog. OOHHH! WEELLLLL! 4-letter word.
