1953 Jaguar XK120 DHC

This 1953 Jaguar XK120 is a left-hand-drive Drophead Coupe that was completed on September 9, 1953 and dispatched on December 14 from the factory to New York distributor Max Hoffman. The work reportedly included refinishing the body, powder-coating the frame, new tobacco interior upholstery, reconditioned wood trim, a replacement brown convertible top, and more. Power is from a 3. 4-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual gearbox, and equipment includes a set of chrome wire wheels. This XK120 DHC is offered in Linköping, Sweden with a Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate, refurbishment invoices, and Swedish registration. The car was originally finished in black and has since undergone a color change to pale yellow. Braking is managed by four-wheel hydraulic drums. The interior is trimmed in tobacco upholstery over matching carpets and features lap belts for both driver and passenger. The burl wood on the dashboard, door caps, and windshield surround has been refinished. The cabin also features a factory steering wheel and Smiths gauges, including a 140-mph speedometer and a reverse-sweep tachometer.
