Sellers description:
The Classic Car Gallery is proud to offer this beautifully restored 1953 Jaguar XK120 SE Roadster. This blue chip investment grade car was restored in 2006, and is in absolutely immaculate condition. This car was restored by Dragone Classics of Bridgeport, Ct. At a documented restoration cost of more than $100,000, this car is near perfect, and needs nothing. The matching numbers original engine and transmission were rebuilt, and run like new. The exhaust system from the manifolds back is new. The bodylines are extremely straight and the Bentley green paint finish is magnificent. The saddle interior is all new and extremely clean and correct. The braking system is all-new, and the original wire wheels have been refinished, the tires are new. All of the chrome is new and unblemished. The wiring harness is new. This car came equipped from the factory with the rare SE package, which includes factory original high lift camshafts, dual exhaust, wire wheels with knock-off hubs, and stiffer front torsion bars. Extensive documentation of the cars history as well as the restoration receipts and records are available. Photos of the car before the restoration are also available. The car comes with a new black soft top, side curtains, original tool kit, jack, and full size painted wire spare. This is a ground up, frame off body, restoration of a legendary British sports car. With less than 1000 miles on the restoration, she is ready for show or pleasure. This is one of the finest investment grade XK-120s on the market today.
