Sellers description:
1953 Jaguar XK120 "S" drophead coupe. Rare. Matching numbers. "S" model with higher compression engine. Many chrome parts rechromed or new in bags. Most interior pieces in boxes. Engine complete, old whitewalls still look new with spare. Has been stored for over 37 years. Car needs total restoration but frame and sub structure in good original condition. I have restored much worse. Car is valuable once done right. Original color I believe is pastel green...

Car to be at auction 7/16
www.coys.co.uk/cars/1953-jaguar-xk120-se-drophead-coupe

Auction description:
ESTIMATE £27,000-£32,000
Auction 2016 Blenheim Palace
Lot Number 169
Reg. Number EU Taxes Paid
Chassis Number S677210
Year 1953
Make Jaguar
Model XK120 SE

Rolling off the production line in May 1953, chassis S677210, a matching numbers XK120 SE Drophead Coupe, was despatched on the 15th May 1953, heading for the US importer Hoffman's of New York.

The car was specified in the rather avantgarde combination of Pastel Green with a Suede Green interior, and a fawn coloured convertible hood. Pleasingly, the XK was fitted from new with the more desirable high compression engine, a useful upgrade.

This XK provides an excellent basis for restoration; the engine is said to turn over freely, the chassis is believed to be in excellent condition, whilst the car is offered with a number of spare parts supplied as part of the package.

Offered with a title document and relevant UK NOVA certificate, what a fantastic project for the next owner.
