1952 Jaguar XK British Racing Green paint over Old Biscuit leather
This is a gorgeous 1952 Jaguar XK120 OTS ("Open Two-Seater").
It is finished in iconic British Racing Green paint over an Old Biscuit colored leather interior and has undergone a total body-off restoration. This legendary Jaguar is stunning in person and looks as though it has just rolled off the assembly line in Coventry. Perhaps as important, this is a tour ready Jaguar needing nothing to be enjoyed.
This painstaking process of body off, nut and bolt restoration took three full years to complete. The result is excellent. The British Racing Green livery on this car is in excellent condition with very few minor blemishes. In direct sunlight, it shines beautifully and has the wonderful deep luster that this color is known for. The chrome trim pieces are in wonderful condition (as to be expected after such a restoration) and highlight the details of this beautiful car. This example also comes with its black canvas convertible top and side curtains that look great and are easy to attach. There are some expected scratches on the side insert windows due to storage. The split-windshield creates a cool, period-correct look to an already sexy car and creates an undistorted, commanding view of the road ahead. The "Old Biscuit leather interior is in overall excellent condition. The leather is soft and supple and is complimented with deep, soft matching carpets. The light and elegant looking interior creates a stunning contrast to the more understated exterior. The factory steering wheel comes complete with the original Jaguar logo encased in an orb that immediately demands your attention while every other touch point, such as the gear lever and hand brake, work well with excellent engagement feel. The 3.4 liter inline-six starts right up hot or cold and idles smoothly. The bellowing, deep growl that these engines are so revered for is omnipresent and it is particularly amplified higher in the rev range. Delivering 160 hp complimented with excellent midrange torque, it is an absolute joy to drive. There is an inherent, awesome mechanical feel to this car that needs to be experienced. The four-speed transmission engages into every gear easily and faithfully, and clutch operation is exceptionally smooth and progressive. At speed, this Jaguar is stable and confident making the 120-mph top speed claim by Jaguar themselves (hence XK120) easily believable. This car comes with the factory Black canvas top, side curtains, and tan canvas tonneau covers as well as a custom ordered car cover.
