Car description |

The XK 120 was Jaguars first sports car since the SS 100 was discontinued in 1940. It was offered in two versions, one being the open roadster also, known as the OTS and the FHC also known as the Hard-top. The designation of XK120 was XK being the engine lay out and the 120 being for the cars being tested at 120MPH. The XK120 was the fastest production car in the world for some time. It is also described as one of the most beautiful of the time period as well.
My 1952 Jaguar XK120 REPLICA is the next best thing to the original offering the panache of the real without the high price tag or the maintenance woes of the original. Vehicle is finished in a Light Gray exterior paint that is in wonderful shape and shines like it's still fresh. The Light Gray exterior is paired to a blue interior that is just as clean and free of any damage or issues. This Jag features original hardware, gauges, trim, bumpers, windshield, and many other parts. Vehicle is powered by a Ford 302 cubic inch V8 engine, features a custom 2â€x4" double run frame, Holley carburetor, aluminum intake, Tremec 5-speed transmission, Ford Mustang front suspension, Ford Mustang rear suspension, navy blue soft top, side curtains, windows, and Nardi steering wheel, full tonneau cover, new tires (radial tires that look like bias ply), new battery, new shocks, fresh fluid flush and change and much more. This vehicle won second place at Battle of Brits in Michigan and also has won multiple ribbons, trophies. A photo album of build, donor car, and comments from the original owner will come along with the car.
This Jag shows approximately 22K on the odometer. I purchased this car from a Michigan broker in 2018 - always wanted an XK 120 and I love this one. To my misfortune, I am 75 years old and a left leg amputee and I can not get in or out of the car without great difficulty. I hate to part with my dream but I have to put my head over my heart and do what common sense dictates - looking longingly does not justify keeping a vehicle I am unable to drive.
I will be glad to answer any questions about this lovely car.
