This is a 1954 Jaguar XK120 Roadster Convertible. This original body with the stunning red paint gives this roadster a unique and bold appearance. The engine is a Ford 351 Modified with approximately 400hp and the dual exhaust that gives it that muscle car sound. It has a 3 speed automatic with overdrive and a 3.08 gear ratio. The seats are leather which was completed by an interior master craftsman. The tonneau cover is leather and has a nice tight fit. The car has about 500 miles on it since restoration. The front brakes are original drums. There are several items included with the car: The hardtop, the original differential, 2 sets of original rear brake drums, side curtain brackets, roll of carpet to match the current interior and the original carpet is included to use as the pattern, spare tire and wheel. The car had some repair work done to the front lower body panel due to contact with the transport trailer rail and has primer applied and is ready for paint. The car is 95% completed and is ready for the new owner to take it to the next level.

Car returns to ebay 3/15/19
www.ebay.com/itm/1954-Jaguar-XK/283416172699
Current bid: $17,500.00 Reserve not met 1 bid 8 days left in auction, buy it now price $39,900, seller bodonaldson2exb, car now said to be in Statesboro, Georgia.
Seller's description:
I have known of this car for a while and eventually I was able to buy it from the second owner of 20 years.
The owner told me; he traded his 1967 427 Corvette and money for the Jaguar to the original owner that lived in South Carolina; so the car has always lived in a warm climate which explains the rust free body and chassis.
The roadster was painted over 10 years ago and it is showing some imperfections but nothing major. The paint is way above driver quality, the body is very straight; you can tell it’d always had a good life.
Now, …The reason this car is selling for a third of his value is that at some point; the Jag engine failed, and the owner was talked into putting a more reliable drive-train. Not, the greatest advise, anyway – he was smart enough to keep the original rear-end but not the drive-train; so it is now power by a Ford 351 matted with a 3-speed automatic transmission and Ford nine-inch rear-end.
The car runs, drives and shifts great. But this decision has affected the value, but the car still appeals to a number of different buyers. First, the guy that loves the look of a XK120 Roadster but does not have $100K to spent. Second, the Cobra guy that loves American muscle and classic styling. And third, the guy that wants to bring it back to its glory and originality.
The car does have a custom-made hardtop that was made using the original soft top frame that is the only top that car has and there are no side curtains.
The things that I know that are not factory to the car are: the engine; the transmission, exhaust system, shiftier, the rear-end; the gauges; and the seats.
So, drive the car for the next twenty years or more, the way it is or restore the car to factory specs and bring it to Pebble Beach; either way the value is there- at this price its money in bank at minimum.

Current bid: $12,000 reserve price not met 1 bid 9 days left in auction seller bodonaldson2exb, same location.
Seller's description:
We are helping settle an estate so we don’t know much about this car so this is what we were told, It is titled as a 1954 xk120 it does have a ford engine, transmission and rear end, cranks and runs motor sounds strong (we have heard run), we would assume that body parts have been replaced at some point so we don’t know what is original and what is not as we aren’t familiar with these cars at all, we encourage anyone to come and inspect in person or ask any questions as we will try to answer them some gauges work and some don’t. This 1954 Jaguar XK 120 is a modified vehicle. The owner has had it for 1 year. The vehicle is drivable and is not regularly driven.
