Description
This 1953 Jaguar XK120 roadster was completed on November 4, 1952, and was originally distributed in the US through Hoffman Motors in New York. Power is provided by a numbers-matching 3. 4L inline-six mated to a four-speed manual transmission. Modifications include a color change to metallic silver over tan leather with burgundy piping, a burgundy soft top, an aluminum radiator, an electric cooling fan, a walnut dash, wire wheels, and an electrical cutoff switch. It was refinished in its current shade of silver metallic during the restoration carried out in Poland. 16â? wire wheels secured by two-eared knock-offs were added during the restoration in place of the original disc wheels and wear Michelin Pilote X tires. A burgundy soft top was fitted in lieu of the original black top, and matching side curtains can be seen in the gallery. A walk-around video can be watched above. The cabin has been re-trimmed in tan leather with burgundy piping and matching wool carpeting with burgundy leather binding. A burl walnut dash has been added, and a black four-spoke steering wheel has been retained.
