    Seen in eBay auction paired with OTS #672950. Ad reads:

    The second Jaguar is a 1952 Coupe chassis #679078. This car has far less rust than the roadster as you can see in the rockers and door sills. This car would be a prime candidate for restoration. This car is also sold with a Bill of Sale. As with the other car, what you see is all there is.

    Sellers description:
    1952 XK120 LHD Coupe. This jaguar is a restoration project, this car is all matching numbers and comes with a clear florida title and a heritage certificate. This jaguars vin plate numbers are as follows: chassis#679078 engine#w3625-8 body#J1076 gearbox#jh7502 Jaguar Produced 2,680 units between 1951-1954. Starter, Amp gauge,Front and rear bumpers and bumper brackets,front grill,rear taillight housings,rear taillight lenses,rear window glass,interior seats and seat frames.all interior(door panels,carpet,chrome knobs etc,exhaust system,front headlight chrome trim,headlights,rear decklid chrome handle. This car is very solid with only a couple of places that will need some metal repair. The first place is on the right front fender near the front in the middle of the wheel well opening. The second place is on the front drivers side fender, I have included two pictures in the picture section to show the two problem areas. The bonnet and the decklid and doors are in great condition. The body shell is in good condition with only surface rust present. The rear quarters aren't installed on the car at the moment, but they will be when the car is sold. The rear quarter panels are in grey primer and are in great shape with only a few minor surface rust present. The body shell was stripped to bare metal at some point, and then it started to get surface rust. The battery box area is solid with no rust holes, and the trunk floor is there but it will need to be beat out because the spare tire floor is bent upwards, the d posts and door sills are solid and wont need to be replaced. The wood flooring is gone, and somewhere along the way some put in metal floor pans. The glass on this car is crackfree except for the front windshield driver side piece which has a small crack line. The engine and transmission are currently not in the car. The engine will be wedged on the chassis for transport. The transmission will not be installed and will be placed on the metal seat floors. The engine is all complete, but hasn't been run in years, the engine isn't frozen. The transmission shifts into each gear fine,but it will also need to be checked. The bonnet isn't currently installed but it will be for transport. The doors and bonnet are in red primer and the decklid has red paint on it.

    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?
