    Does that hardtop survive by any chance?

    I owned the XK120 roadster, chassis # 670513, in the United States from 1963 - 1966. At that time it was equipped with a correct roadster top frame and a replacement vinyl soft top. Until seeing the photos of the hard top you've posted here, I knew nothing about its existence.

    You have a beautiful car! I'm very pleased to learn that it has received a recent ground-up restoration and I must tell you that it is a special treat to see such beautiful photos of the finished product!

    Best Regards, CC

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
