1954 Jaguar XK120 SE Roadster

This XK120 SE Roadster was dispatched to Charles Hornburg’s dealership in Los Angeles in 1954, and much of its early history is unknown. It was the recipient of an impressive restoration in the mid-1990s that continues to present very well. Originally green, chassis S674322 was refinished in Signal Red with a black leather interior. In 1997, the XK120 was sold to prominent Southern California collector Peter McCoy before joining another respected Los Angeles-area collection in 2016. This Jaguar benefits from well-documented upgrades that improve performance and driveability without disturbing its character. The four-speed gearbox was replaced with a five-speed unit, while the original front drum brakes were changed to discs. A high-torque starter was also fitted. The Jaguar’s original gearbox and front brakes are included with the car. As an SE model, the engine sports the high-performance cylinder head, which increased output not insignificantly from the model’s standard 160 hp to 180 hp. Under current ownership, the car has benefited from an over $30,000 mechanical refresh by Hammer & Dolly Auto Restorations of Traverse City, Michigan. This work included rebuilding the engine, rebuilding the suspension, addressing other driveability-related maintenance, and installing a new folding soft top. This handsome XK120 SE Roadster offers the best of both worlds: a thoughtfully upgraded classic Jaguar with all the style and beauty of a stock XK. car
