So you are saying this is an early 120?

a resto project with these chassis numbers is for sale on eBay, US .

It' chassis is declared with some modifications, and an american engine is fitted .

The US sale mentioned above Ebay item 173726965314 includes the correct data plate, however not attached to the car. No photo of the frame stamping has been provided so at the current time it can't be confirmed the US car is indeed 675242. An effort has been launched to contact the French owner for chassis number verification. As it is believed the French car originated in the US it's highly possible it got shipped to France without the data plate but until further data is acquired it will be a question. The US car is said to be Cherryville, North Carolina, and is little more than a body on a modified frame. The photo of the data plate included here is from the US seller. Experts that have examined the photo are quite sure it is original.

Car has a buy it now price of $11,000 for 6 days, seller davibea_84, said to be in Cherryville, North Carolina.

Seller's description:

1954 Jaguar XK 120. Condition is Used. Bill of sell only. 

The motor does not come with it. The frame can be put back to stock easily. 

I currently have all these as follows, all original; rear end, leaf springs, dash, a few gauges, front end including torsion suspension, radiator, trunk lid with new wood, steering column and box (still searching for it) and 3 rims, 4th is somewhere too.

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?
