Produced between 1948 and 1954, the Jaguar XK120 was a
revolutionary British sports car, named for its top speed of 120
mph (actually reaching over 126 mph), making it the world's fastest
production car at its launch. It featured a 3.4-liter, twin-cam
straight-six engine and was available as an Open Two-Seater
(Roadster), Drophead Coupe, or Fixed Head Coupe.
This 1952 Jaguar XK120 Fixed Head Coupe is powered by the legendary
3.4 liter inline-six-cylinder motor mated to a four-speed manual
transmission and is finished in a platinum silver metallic with
coordinating red leather upholstery.
Previously enjoying a vintage racing history with Mighty Roar
Racing for a ten-year period from 1990 to 2000 this Fixed Head
Coupe was then restored back to a factory configuration. This Fixed
Head Coupe's paint shows very well with some minor imperfection as
shown in the photographs and is accented by the brilliant chrome
front bumper and rear bumperettes. The original red leather
upholstered interior features the patina expected on a 74-year-old
vehicle.
This XK120 is equipped with rear spats and sixteen-inch steel
wheels with hubcaps and bright trim rings wrapped with Firestone
tires that should be replaced.
Turn the key and wait for the fuel pump to fill the SU carburetors
and this Jaguar will come to a quick start and produce a fantastic
rumble from the exhaust.
Now showing 19,758 miles, true miles unknown this well-maintained
Jaguar is ready for its next owner.
