Car has a buy it now price of $115,000 for 8 days. 25k miles.

Sellers description:
This 1952 Jaguar XK120 Roadster has been built and improved to be a reliable event and tour car. The owner started with a low mileage, very original and rust free disc-wheeled example and performed the following. He had XK's Unlimited add power disc brakes, an alloy radiator, a new five-speed gearbox, new hubs, wheels, and tires, new rear springs, rebuilt front suspension, poly bushings and GAZ shocks. He then had us do a full engine rebuild in addition to a dual stainless exhaust. Both the block and the head carry the original engine number W5597-8. The seats are alloy buckets covered in red leather. The carpets are black Wilton wool. An intercom system is fitted. All receipts are available. There is no top, as it was removed to allow the seats to be positioned for extra legroom. There is a tonneau cover. None, I repeat none, of the original parts are available. The body and paint work are consistent with the cars purpose; very presentable but not Concours. There is the odd minor wave, ding, and chip but overall it is very attractive. There is no evidence of rust, ever. The chassis is typical of a lifelong California car.

All the above work was performed within the last four years. Only a few thousand miles have been put on the car since. The mileage shown on the odometer is obviously not the true mileage.

The car recently completed the Colorado Grand without incident. It runs, brakes, shifts, steers, and handles fantastically. This is a car you can use in confidence.
