Sellers description:
This beautiful black plate car is being offered as a totally ready to go, wonderful vehicle. We have restored and owned over 40 XK120's, and this is without a doubt, the best driving XK I have ever been in. The clutch is smooth and soft, and the transmission shifts like butter. Engine is incredibly smooth and powerful, with no smoke, no noises, and excellent oil pressure achieving 185 degrees, and then staying there like a rock. This car has obviuosly never been left outside in a field. There is a tremendous amount of parts on this car that are original and excelelnt. The engine bay is beautifully detailed and porcelain on the exhaust manifolds looks to be original and excellent. The original data plate matches the engine number, and it would appear there has never been any accident damage, further verified by the excellent fit of the bonnet, doors, and trunk. This car is fitted with the original spats, which creates a swoopy body design that has been imitated, but never equalled. Just closing the doors lets you know how incredibly solid and how good this car is. Turn the key, and it does not even go over a full turn before it fires off and idles like a kitten. Everything electrical works on the car, and I don't know of anything I would do to improve this. An extremely wonderful sorted out car that I would feel very comfortable driving on a daily basis, and i don't say that lightly. The car has both side curtains and soft top, as well as a full set of tools, and all jack, jack handle, coach key, and even original tire pump all clipped in their original places. A more complete XK120, I have never seen! This is the type of car that you could purchase, and with confidence drive across the country to take home. We are very pleased to offer this. If you go to our website, www.GassmanAutomotive.com, you will see the many Jaguar restorations we have completed, including several alloy cars, and 2 XK120 coupes, one of which set a world's record at the RM Auction in Monterey. We are highly regarded amongst the XK world, with JCNA wins, Amelia Island entry, and Hilton Head entry. While we did not do the restoration on this car, we would be very pleased to say we did. Black plate is included with the car. The values of these cars have started an upswing at a steep level since February of 2013, with no end in sight. While Hagerty shows a number 1 car at $155,000, I am aware of multiple cars in the private sector that have sold for much greater. The 1951 XK120 Coupe with spats and steel wheels that we restored on our website brought over $195,000 7 years ago. Many of these cars are out there, but very few are this good. Buy with complete confidence from a well known Virginia dealer, #0727, who has worked very hard to achieve the reputation we have.
