A Heritage Trust Certificate confirms that this Jaguar XK120 Drophead Coupe 3.4 Litre was produced at the Brown Lane factory, Coventry in England on 15 June 1953. Chassis number: 677418 was then dispatched to the official Jaguar Distributor Hornburg, Los Angeles USA.
This iconic vehicle, boasting matching numbers with engine number W 8835-8, which has been completely overhauled, was imported to the Netherlands in 2006 and underwent an extensive, meticulous restoration. A wealth of restoration images and invoices verify the high standard of work completed. In May 2008, it was sold to its first German owner. A comprehensive insurance valuation conducted in July 2024 confirms the car’s Condition 2 status, which may even be underrepresented.
