Vehicle Original VIN : 677663
Ok folks, what we have here is a really cool Jag. First off, its the last year of the XK120 which would then become the 140 in 1955. Also, this is an all original car with the exception of a newer exhaust system and newer front glass. Furthermore, this car has remained with the same family since atleast the mid-1970's....Atleast fifty years! We have quite a bit of service history with receipts and registrations dating back to that time along with many hand written notes to suppliers and repair shops. The patina on the body is incredible and there would be no way I would personally restore this car. The body # indicated on the cowl tag is also found hand written on the inner side of the factory rear wheel spats. The interior is 100% original and to be honest shows years of enjoyment. There is no body rot on this car and the underside looks like a 70 Year old original car still wtih the factory leather wrapped rear wheel springs. The XK120 was the fastest production car in the World! That is a strong statement.
The first 242 cars were all Aluminum but after that the bodies were steel but still retained Aluminum doors, rear deck lid and hood. Mechanically this car starts, idles and goes down the road so smoothly and very responsive. All of the exterior lights work, and with the exceptiion of the RPM guage the guages are operational. This would be an absolute killer car to do vintage touring in. There are many extras like gaskets, hoses, bulbs and many other assorted items along with manuals. We welcome any questions or inspections here in our Traverse City location.
