1954 Jaguar XK120 Fixed Head Coupe.

This example featuring an updated aluminum radiator, disc brakes, and a 5-speed synchro transmission. You now have a stunning world-class tourer with the reliability and comfort level that's hard to match, and it stops when it needs to. Cruise on the interstate at 85MPH with the engine barely over 3,000 RPM, thanks to the overdrive 5-speed, smoothly clicking into each gear. Stainless steel exhaust gives this cat a growl that must be heard, turning heads wherever you go. Drive it to dinner, across the state on a rally, or even in the Mille-Miglia, it will not disappoint.

This XK120 has a mile-deep black paint job on top of superb rust-free bodywork, excellent chrome, great original leather complete with the Jaguar aroma, and everything works as it should. Starts immediately with the help of electronic choke and runs very strong, new tires complete the package. This is a car you will cherish for the rest of your life.
