Auction description:

1954 Jaguar XK120 Roadster

Timeless British sports car design

Matching-numbers engine

Excellent color presentation

Show ready and prepared for touring

This beautiful example is finished in Dove Gray and is complemented by a leather interior of dark red bolster with tan biscuits for the plush seats under a taut and fresh black folding top. This sleek roadster has been treated to several recent improvements including new chrome wire wheels and a fresh set of Vredestein Sprint Classic blackwall tires. Inspections have shown that this XK120 retains its original numbers-matching engine, by which this car is titled, and presents in splendid condition. This car is fitted with the improved Salisbury 4HA rear axle with the driver friendly 3.54:1 gears, as well as the later production-style rear springs originally found only on the SE models. At the time of cataloging, the odometer was showing just over 62,450 miles which are believed to be correct. As a competition vehicle, names like Sir Stirling Moss and World Champion Phil Hill were often found behind the wheel of XK120s, while celebrities such as Clark Gable, Humphrey Bogart and Tyrone Power all enjoyed some seat time behind the wheels of their own Jaguars. Featuring timeless style, proven mechanics, and an impeccable heritage of motoring magnificence, ownership of this iconic roadster will bring prestige and many happy miles of driving satisfaction.
