Your Jag is very close to my chass# 679876 / 1952 XK120m FHC
My original motor # Wf5541-8 but was changed to W3856-8 ( early 1951 )

I have not be able to drive the car for two years because of a over heating problem.
Any ideas on how to correct this engine concern. 240 degrees and the coolent shoots out of the radiator after
20 minutes.

Auction description:
Lot 126
1952 Jaguar XK120 Fixed Head Coupe
US$ 70,000 - 100,000
€51,000 - 73,000
Chassis no. 679874
Engine no. W 5540-8

*US-delivery, left-hand-drive XK120
*Best looking XK 120 variant
*Formerly owned by Jaguar club officer
*Matching numbers original engine
*Believed to be fewer than 44,000 original miles

This elegant XK120 Fixed Head was built during the summer of 1952 and was dispatched August 15th for delivery to the Hoffman Motor Car Co, New York. Originally finished in Battleship Grey with Red upholstery, the XK120 was just the type of sexy, sleek British sports car described by B.S. Levy in his 1950s American sports car racing fictional novel The Last Open Road.

Its early history and first owner are not recorded, however eventually the car came into the ownership of Mr. George Keller of Columbus, Ohio, an officer of the Jaguar Association of Central Ohio. No doubt enjoyed during Jaguar club gatherings, the XK120 eventually passed to a Mr. Charles Regester of Westerville, Ohio. At some point the XK120 was repainted in its present white color while the interior was retrimmed in tan leather with matching tan carpets.

Retaining its original matching-numbers engine and its tool kit, the Jaguar was acquired by the vendor last year and is described as being in good overall condition. The vendor describes the indicated mileage of under 44,000 to be original, and indeed this is supported by the previous title for the car which specifies actual mileage. It is believed that the original 3.4-liter engine was rebuilt at some point in the past. Looking quite the archetype of the XK120 Coupe, this Fixed Head is eligible for a number of vintage touring events and JCNA activities, where it can continue to provide enjoyment well into the future.
