It was bought in 2014 by a private collector who then spent the next seven years restoring the car alongside a fleet of other cars and various projects. The benefit of buying a car from Brazil, was virtually no rust damage. However, the current owner stripped everything back to bare metal then repainted, re bushed and rebuilt all of the suspension with new shock absorbers. A rebuilt engine was bought and a close ratio gearbox was sourced from the US and rebuilt along with a rear axle, new wheels, hubs, high power electronic ignition, refurbished radiator, new alloy petrol tank and pipes for petrol and brakes. The body was resprayed in a dark metallic blue and refitted to the chassis and rewired with a new loom and new interior., The XK120 was ultimately available in three body styles, all two-seaters and available either as a (LHD) or (RHD), an open 2-seater described in the US market as a roadster or a fixed head coup (FHC) from 1951 as this model is., A lovely example being restored some years ago to a good standard it makes for the perfect usable classic XK120! Not in concours condition but not far off., The Jaguar XK120 holds a special place in automotive history as one of the most iconic and influential sports cars ever produced. Born out of Jaguars racing heritage and unveiled to the world in 1948, the XK120 captured the hearts of enthusiasts with its stunning design, impressive performance, and accessible price tag. Today, it stands as a symbol of British automotive excellence and a timeless classic that continues to captivate car
