Description

1954 Jaguar XK 120 Roadster s/n S674502, Engine No. F1420-8S Pastel Green with Suede Green Leather This late production, fully restored, matching numbers, XK 120 Roadster was sold new in Los Angles, California, and has been with the current owner for approximately 35 years. A complete restoration- both mechanical and cosmetic- has been carried out over the last 12 years. Well over $100,000 has been spent on a no-expense spared effort to achieve the highest possible results. It is finished in its original and period appropriate color combination. The odometer show just 95 miles, reflecting the distance traveled since the restoration was completed. With basically no miles on this high quality repaint, there are no rock chips or dings anywhere on the car. The only paint flaws of any significance anywhere on the car are where the top contacts the body. The body is extremely straight and was a rust free example at the beginning of the restoration process. Today, this car remains one of the most solid examples that we have seen in many years. The hood, doors, and trunk gaps are all excellent. All the exterior chrome; bumpers, window frames, and taillight housings, have been re-plated in recent years and are very good. The car sits on new chrome wire wheels with semi-restored chrome knock offs, and older Dunlop Road Speed tires with almost no miles on them. The interior is also fully restored with freshly reupholstered seats, floors, doors, and dash. The gauges have all been restored. Many of the knobs and switches have been left in original condition. The seats and dash have been redone in very soft leather, while the door panels have been done in matching green vinyl. The fit of the interior is outstanding, particularly the welting on the edges of the doors and dashboard. The difficult carpeting on the transmission tunnel is also superbly done. The tan convertible top is completely new with a new canvas cover and new support frame. The trunk is painted to match the body and fitted with matching green vinyl mat. The engine compartment and underside show almost no evidence of use since the restoration was completed. The firewall is clean, as are the chassis rails and suspension components. The wiring harness looks to have been replaced some years ago as part of the restoration. Mechanically, the car is strong. The engine and transmission have both been rebuilt. The engine sounds tight and is very responsive. It pulls cleanly with no hesitation and the brakes are effective and well balanced. With the car comes the unrestored spare wire wheel, and photo and written documentation for much of the restoration work carried out over the last decade, and the British Heritage Trust Certificate confirming this car is offered as a matching numbers example in the original delivery color combination.
