 European Collectibles is pleased to offer this fully restored and matching numbers 1954 Jaguar XK120 Roadster.

This beautifully restored Jaguar XK120 was sold new to a doctor in Michigan who owned it for over forty years.  After his death in 1995, it was sold to a dealer who sold it in 1996 to a gentleman who used it during the summer months for the next ten years.  When, in 2006, a new clutch was necessary (which requires removal of the engine) the decision was made to do a full restoration.  The work was carried out by noted Jaguar specialist, Piscazzi Auto Body of Akron, Ohio.  Mr. Piscazzi is well-known among Jaguar enthusiasts for building some very high scoring JCNA concours cars.  In fact, Mr. Piscazzi embarked on the restoration of this car right after finishing the restoration of his own personal 1952 Jaguar XK120.  Although not originally Jaguar Bronze, a similar shade was chosen for this car.  The original Suede Green interior color was chosen when this interior was replaced by Frank Konkoly of the Upholstery Shop in Akron, Ohio. The top and original side curtains are black, and the toneau cover is Suede Green.

The list of mechanical work performed includes, but is not limited to: rebuilt  - cylinder head rebuilt, - new valves, - rebuilt carburetors, - restored intake manifold, - new clutch, - “custom” heavy duty shifting fork, - new throw out bearing, - new water pump, - new belts and hoses (all), - thermo electric fan, - new brakes and wheel cylinders, - completely rebuilt front end, - new oil seals, etc., etc. Electrical - complete new wiring harness, - rebuilt generator, -rebuilt voltage regulator, - new improved gear reduction starter, - new fuel sending unit, - new batteries, - new coil, - new points, - new condenser, etc., etc. Miscellaneous - new wood floorboards and trunk boards, - five new radial tires and tubes, stainless steel exhaust, rebuilt rear shocks, - new front shocks.  The chrome was plated by Custom Chrome.  Since the restoration, this fine Jaguar has been used sparingly and has always been serviced.  A recent rebuilding of the brake master cylinder has just been completed along with several test drives by the mechanic to ensure proper sorting. 

Please note that although not restored to its original paint color, this Jaguar has all of its factory numbered components in place - engine block, cylinder head, transmission and body.  Receipts and photos from the restoration are also included in the sale.

We welcome bidders from anywhere in the world.  We are happy to arrange shipping on your behalf, but all associated charges are the responsibility of the buyer.  CA residents are required to pay sales tax, license and registration.

Ian Callum says Jaguar could do new wagon after all

Wed, Apr 27 2016

Just the other day we brought you a report from Automotive News Europe that indicated that Jaguar was getting out of the wagon market. Now it turns out that may not actually be the case. Following the ANE report, Jaguar design boss Ian Callum tweeted out that he had been misquoted. "I said there would be no XE Sportbrake," wrote Callum. "Nothing more!" While stopping short of spelling out what the British automaker has in the pipeline, Callum's implication (by process of elimination of other Jaguar models) is that the new XF could still breed a wagon version. The previous XF Sportbrake, which also came in XFR-S performance spec, was only the second wagon Jaguar had ever made. The first was based on the X-Type that preceded the new XE; offering a long-roof version of that new sports sedan is apparently off the table, but even with the new F-Pace crossover ostensibly filling the role, a new XF Sportbrake could yet become a reality. Of course none of that means that such a wagon would make its way to North America. But we take a great deal of stock in what Callum has to say on the subject, seeing as how he designed every one of the models in question. The X-Type Sportwagon was offered Stateside, however the XF Sportbrake never was, and in addition the F-Pace promises to be a big player for the automaker on this side of the Atlantic. Do you think Jaguar should make a wagon out of the new XF, and bring that wagon to these United States? This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Jaguar designs Tour de France racing bike [w/video]

Sun, 01 Jun 2014

Jaguar is known for designing luxury sedans, and it's known for designing GTs. But once in a while it dabbles in a new area of transportation design. It's working on its first crossover at the moment, and even did a speedboat concept a couple of years ago. Now it's turned its attention to bicycles.
While many automakers have designed bikes in the past, Jaguar's project has a bit more of a direct correlation. It's been working with Team Sky - the outfit that has won the Tour de France two years running now - since 2010, furnishing the team with support vehicles for bicycle races around the world. But now it's stepping its collaboration up a notch by redesigning the team's bike.
Working with frame manufacturer Pinarello, Jaguar took the existing Dogma 65.1 racing bike design back to the drawing board. Jaguar's designers and engineers reshaped the frame tubes, seat post, front fork, derailleur and all the components attached to the frame, each part streamlined for aerodynamic efficiency. They ran it through Jaguar's Computational Fluid Dynamics processor 300 times then verified the results in the wind tunnel.

Jaguar lifts the tailgate on XFR-S Sportbrake

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

In the market for an amped-up Jaguar? Look for the letter R, adorning such performance models as the XFR and XJR sedans, the XKR coupe and convertible and the new F-Type R. But if it's bonkers performance you're after, you'll want to add the letter S into the mix as well. Jaguar uses the letters to connote its most hard-core performance variants like the two-door XKR-S and four-door XFR-S. And now it's applied them to the XF wagon as well, skipping the R treatment and going straight for the new XFR-S Sportbrake.
Leaked just the other day and headed for the Geneva Motor Show, Jaguar has now revealed its new power wagon in full. The XFR-S Sportbrake packs Coventry's ubiquitous 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine boasting 542 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque. That's the same version that powers the XKR-S and XFR-S sedan (not to mention the F-Type R and XJR), and drives the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic to rocket the estate to 60 in 4.6 seconds and on to an electronically limited top speed of 186 miles per hour.
That may be pretty quick, but doesn't quite stack up to the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model 4Matic Estate whose 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 offers up 577 hp and 590 lb-ft for a 3.6-second 0-60 time, or to the Audi RS6 Avant whose 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 churns out 552 hp and 516 lb-ft for a 3.9-second 0-62 sprint. Though the Jaguar is only a little behind in output, it's a good second slower where it's measured. Granted that the Benz and the Audi are both all-wheel-drive where the Jaguar powers the rear only, but if four-wheel traction is how you get the power to the road, we wonder why Jaguar wouldn't fall in line. Particularly when the Jag's starting price in the UK (don't expect to see it imported here) is quoted at £82,495 - several grand more than the £76,985 RS6 but just shy of the £85,880 Mercedes gets for the E63 S-Model wagon in the UK (where the less potent 'base' version is also available as the cheapest in the bunch at £75,885).
