Built in July 1951, this XK120 roadster was delivered new to the USA, like most XK120s, but was not registered (and titled) until 1952. The car left the Brown's Lane factory finished in black with a biscuit and red interior, as it is today, although the interior has since been re-trimmed in all-red. This XK120 is a matching-numbers (chassis and engine) example; the cylinder block and head both stamped 'W3376-8' as per the accompanying Jaguar Heritage Certificate.
The Jaguar later returned to Europe and was in Milan, Italy in 2000 (copy old Italian Libretto on file) where it was extensively restored. It stayed in Milan until 2013 and subsequently was sold to Belgium where it has remained ever since. An older restoration that holds up very well, the XK was last serviced in April 2023 by marque specialist Paul Soret in Brussels (see invoice for €3,500 on file). Beautifully presented in a stunning colour scheme, the car is offered with Belgian registration documents and is ready to be enjoyed.
