Listing this 1953 Jaguar XK120 for a good friend. This XK 120 sold new to a buyer in Hudson, NY in 1953. Car was bought by present owners husband in 1960. The ownership was transferred to his wife in 1964. Car has a clean transferable registration and was only used for personal use. This Jaguar has only 43,666 miles on odometer and has been stored in modern garage since the mid 1960's. Last registered in the mid-1960's. Interior was removed and car repainted 10 years ago by local body shop. Chrome parts, bumpers, taillights, windshield, etc. send to shop in Connecticut shop and re-chromed. Car presently not running and needs some electrical work. Also needs some reassembly, such as tail lights, windshield, and convertible top. Have most all original interior parts but some parts like the inner door panels and soft top would need replacing. Two extra spoke wheels and also have the original steering wheel. Also some extra parts. Nice clean, unaltered, rust free body XK 120 and should be desirable to right buyer. Expensive body work and re-chrome work already completed. Reasonable reserve and good luck bidding.

Questions on the VIN for this listing. Getting the same question from all over of course. We have to list by how the car has been registered in New York State in the present owner's name for almost 50 years. But as you state this VIN # is different from the Chassis #s for XK120 Jaguars. Only other number we have in paperwork is #673048 and I will add that to car description for all bidders today. However, Anders Clausager's Jaguar XK120 in detail, has OTS LHD Chassis #673048 as a 1952 calendar year model and/but that could also possibly be correct. Confusing but this may have often happened with all the different numbers on these cars when they were originally registered in the states and the calendar year could also have been mixed up, depending on when the vehicle was sold, etc. Car is not located close by but will look again as soon as possible for all numbers. Hope this information will assist you and all future bidders and thanks again. RiK

Jay Leno's Garage features funnyman's 1963 Jaguar E-Type
Thu, 25 Apr 2013Jay Leno looks inward on this episode of his eponymous garage, checking out a 1963 Jaguar XKE that he bought earlier this year. It is an example of his favorite kind of car, that being original and unrestored. He bought the E-Type from its first owner, a woman who purchased it new, held on to it for 50 years and took excellent care of it. Having never been in an accident, Leno says even the paint is 85- to 90-percent original.
In the video, the XKE sits in front of two heavily modded XK120s and another '63 XKE, but Leno said all he's done - and all he plans to do - is clean it up and put on a modern set of wire wheels for safety.
He's not on any junket and there are no guests, it's just a guy talking about an object dear to his heart. If you need a refresher on the excellent genes of the new F-Type, check out the video below.
Playmate of the Year Raquel Pomplun gets a Jaguar F-Type
Sun, 12 May 2013The Jaguar F-Type is slinking its way into vastly divergent corners of the celebrity world. Lana del Rey is its songstress, Englishman-playing-American-terrorist Damien Lewis lead its cinematic debut in Desire, San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick gets the athletic endorsement, and now it's just been driven behind the "Adults Only" doors at the Playboy Mansion: Raquel Pomplun was gifted a year's use of an F-Type for being named 2013 Playmate of the Year.
There's a video below of Pomplun and her F-Type getting 'camera ready,' and a press release below that in case you want to, you know, "read the article."
Jaguar Project 7 concept is an F-Type in a D-Type mold [w/video]
Wed, 10 Jul 2013In addition to the XJR, XFR-S and XKR-S GT models Jaguar is bringing to the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, the manufacturer announced that the F-Type-based, D-Type-inspired Project 7 design study will make its "dynamic" debut at the festival, with driving duties assigned to Mike Cross, Jaguar's chief engineer of vehicle integrity. Here's the cool part: With Jaguar's Director of Design, Ian Callum, leading the team responsible for Project 7, it went from the drawing board to track testing in only four months, Jaguar states, with a claimed 0-60 time of 4.1 seconds and top speed of 186 miles per hour.
Project 7, which was named in honor of Jaguar's seven wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, will be making runs up the hill at Goodwood over all three days of the festival, which starts at the Goodwood House in West Sussex, England, this Friday.
Far from a fragile concept car, Jaguar says, the single-seat Project 7 is a fully functional sports car. It uses the all-aluminum chassis and body of the F-Type, retains that car's 550-horsepower, supercharged 5.0-liter V8 and eight-speed automatic transmission but features lots of bespoke carbon fiber aerodynamic bits, some of which were inspired by the Le Mans-winning D-Type of the 1950s. The most obvious nod to that classic is the rear fairing with integrated rollover hoop - the F-Type's convertible top is gone. The windshield was also lowered, giving the roadster a more rakish silhouette as it sits on 20-inch forged-alloy wheels with carbon fiber inserts.
