1954 Jaguar xk-120 green w/red interior 61000 miles. This car has been in our family since 1961. When my father purchased the car it was white with red interior. Some years later after the car sat in the garage for a while he decided to have it restored. In the early 80`s he sent it to Kane Motor Cain North Kingston,R.I. for a chassis on restoration. I have many invoices to show the work done. The Interior, trunk and top were done by Bill Bassett Jaguar of Wyoming R.I..Since then the car has been in a heated garage. We would use the the car occasionally car shows, sunday rides, etc. The car is in excellent running condition.The body has some imperfections the hood has paint that has sunk into the body work and a few bubbles. The fenders, doors, rear quarters and trunk are fine.The front right fender under the side vent where the body rolls under is scraped, but can`t be seen unless you get under the car to see it. All the chrome is in good shape . The interior has almost no wear, just where the ignition key sits the key chain rubbed the leather bead a little. The leather on top of the two doors are a little dis colored. Last year the car had a small anti freeze leak so I went to Bill Bassett and purchased a new water pump,hose kit, original rebuilt radiator and installed them. While installing the water pump I noticed the motor mounts were a little worn so I replaced them and the ground strap also. One of the carburetor had a bad float so I replaced it. Also there is a tonneau cover and floor mats that Bill Bassett did. There is the original manual with a few pages missing, also the full service manual. The car has 15 inch wire wheels on it now. I have the original 16 inch painted wire wheels mounted on an old set of tires. My name is Orlando, cell phone # 401-523-5738 you can call if you have any questions between 5pm and 8 pm Monday thru Friday and 10am and 5pm Saturday and Sunday Eastern Standard Time.

Jaguar F-Type Project 7 takes the D-Type to the 21st Century
Sat, 16 Aug 2014One of the many big name debuts during the 2014 Monterey car week is this, the Jaguar F-Type Project 7, a stunning roadster inspired by Jaguar's legendary, finned D-Type sports car.
The Project 7 expands on the already appealing F-Type Convertible formula, further boosting the Jaguar Land Rover 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 to its most potent form yet - 575 horsepower - making this the most powerful production Jag in history. So equipped, the Project 7 is more cheetah than jaguar, roaring to 60 miles per hour in a rapid 3.8 seconds before reaching its electronically limited peak speed of 186 miles per hour.
Prices for the F-Type Project 7 start at $165,000, with customer deliveries slated begin in spring of 2015.
Jaguar hints at what might become of XK after F-Type's arrival
Wed, 02 Jan 2013Jaguar may move the company's XK further upmarket following the introduction of its forthcoming F-Type. The newcomer to the range easily shoulders the burden of carrying the Jaguar sportscar mantle, freeing up the XK to evolve in another direction. While speaking with Autocar, Jaguar Design Director Ian Callum said there's an opportunity to grow the grand tourer both in size and luxury.
Whether that means the vehicle will retain its two-plus-two seating configuration or swell to offer buyers even more space remains to be seen. Either way, the future will likely see the XK soften its claws moving forward. And that's no bad thing. Jaguar has a long history of building luxurious grand tourers more content to soak up miles of highway than bounce from apex to apex.
What else is in store for the brand? Callum seems to have kept his cards close to his chest, refusing to acknowledge ongoing rumors of a Jaguar crossover beyond saying the brand "had to take notice" of the popularity of the luxury SUV market.
Evo pits Jaguar XKR-S vs. Mercedes SL63 AMG in heavyweight droptop fight
Wed, 12 Mar 2014We recently received the sad news that the Jaguar XK is ceasing production by the end of the year, but what better way to bid it farewell than with some big, smoky powerslides? The retirement of the sporty GT isn't actually the topic of the latest video from Evo - it's on hand to compete against the Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG to see which is faster around a track. Still, we can think of it as a wonderful sendoff for the Jag.
Both convertible grand tourers get their laps around the course, and they couldn't be more different. Driver Jethro Bovingdon gets some grins out of them both, but absolutely giggles while behind the wheel of the XKR-S convertible. The SL63 AMG is the more powerful of the two, but as we know, that doesn't always matter at a racetrack. You'll just have to scroll down and watch the video to see which of them is actually the winner.
