The most desirable XK120 body style
Presented in Olde English White over a Burgundy and Biscuit leather interior
Original matching-numbers engine

Currently finished in Olde English White over Burgundy and Biscuit leather, a popular color combination for the XK120, this 1953 Roadster is said to be an excellent driver. According to documentation supplied with it, this XK120 resided in La Canada, California, under the ownership of Joan Marilyn Piddington, who placed the car in static storage in 1968. After being removed from storage in the late 1980s, it was sold from California and purchased by Bud Morrison, of Tempe, Arizona, who restored the car to its former glory in the early 1990s. Mr. Morrison kept the car for nearly 25 years, finally parting with the Jaguar in 2013.

Even 60 years after the last XK120 left Jaguar's facility, the model is still adored by enthusiasts and remains one of the most beautiful production cars ever built. This XK120 would make for a wonderful driver for the enthusiast looking to enjoy the thrill of open-air motoring in great style.
