Sellers description:
1952 Jaguar XK 120. I am listing this for a friend who's father just passed away at age 98. I am sorry that the photos of the car are not better. It is in a storage shed and the lighting was poor. We believe that ever part is there to due a full restoration. As you can see in the photos each box is labeled. He saved the leather so new pieces could be cut. The windshield is there but it is cracked. You can use it as a pattern. Below is the description that the son in law wrote up.

This XK 120 was bought new 8/15/1952 by its current owner and is original with all matching numbers and the original title. The car was driven regularly until the early 1970's when it was placed in covered storage awaiting restoration. In the mid-1980's the owner, a retired engineer at Fairchild Aircraft Manufactures, began restoration. The goal of the restoration was to return the car to driving condition and resume regular use.

The car was disassembled and the work on the mechanicals was undertaken. The engine and transmission were overhauled and returned to full working condition. The brake and suspension were overhauled. All body rust was repaired and the door sills on both sides were replaced. The drivetrain was reinstalled in the body. At that point, in the early 1990's, work was halted due to various personal reasons and the car was returned to covered storage where it has remained until now. The owner has recently died at age 98 and the car is being offered for sale by his estate.

The car is believed to be 100% complete, and except for the replaced sills, is completely original. The body is in excellent condition with most of the original paint mostly intact. While still being driven, the car suffered a minor fender bender and there is damage to the left front fender and front valance. The convertible roof framing is complete, but the canvas has rotted away. The car has the original steel wire wheels but the tires are rotted. The original wooden floor boards are available, along with a new replacement made from epoxy coated marine plywood. A number of reference materials are also available, including shop manuals.

There is also a manual that the owner made up that has drawings of many of the parts on the car and how they are installed. From my observation the floor of the trunk was replaced. I do not know if the car will roll. I would suggest bring wheels with tires and maybe it will roll without much problem.

The car is located in Hagerstown Md.
