The Jaguar XK-120 is a British sports car built from 1949 until 1954. It is a front engine, rear wheel drive car that was available in three configurations. Fixed roof coupe, drop head, and like this car, an open roof two-seater. There were only about 7,600 of these open two seat (OTS) versions made. Rarest of all was the drop head configuration. This particular car boasts the original 4 speed manual gearbox, mated to the 3.4L straight 6 that is just amazing. Up through the gears, the exhaust sings and you are hitting speeds well above 100mph at the top end. The 120 in the name actually stands for top speed, but most all the cars built would go faster than that. Some details about the car include the exterior that was restored and repainted in Silver in 2004. The exterior, done in red, matches. It was restored with new carpet and recovered seats in 2016. All in all, this car is simply beautiful. From the body lines to the amazing sound of the engine. The car needs to be seen in person really see just how great a car it is.
