    Born in Argentina, living in France since 50 years, I'm a retired man and vintage car collector. I love my OTS and my FHC XK120 even if they have the big XK oily engine.

    Neither engine or head are the original. It is a non matching numbers car.

    Car has a buy it now price of $77,500 for 20 days. Seller is Cooper Classic Cars, New York City. 19k miles.

    Sellers description:
    Chassis Number: S672 811
    Engine Number: F3224-8S

    This 1952 XK120 M Roadster is Red with a Red interior. The car came as an original M (or SE) series from the factory, as indicated by the S in the serial number. The engine was recently rebuilt by Tom Jaycox, a well known Jaguar mechanic (he himself owns a C-Type.) Jaycox fitted a C-type head, two-inch SU carburetors and tuned the engine, resulting in a 25-30 horsepower increase over a standard XK120 M. The car has excellent brakes, steering and suspension. It is very fast and all the controls are tight and precise. The car was restored around 10 years ago and the paint has a slight patina. The interior is still in excellent condition. The owner has driving lights and new bumpers still in their bubble wrap. The car comes with a Jaguar Heritage Certificate.

    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?
