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. |

Aston Martin DBX and the craziest car redesigns | Autoblog Podcast #716
Fri, Feb 11 2022In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. They chat about slumming it in the Aston Martin DBX, the brand's first SUV, which they didn't have terribly high expectations for yet utterly blew them away. Riswick in particular notes it's one of the best cars he's ever driven, describing it as a family GT car. They then switch to a very different family vehicle: the 2022 Kia Carnival, and the unique second-row seating arrangement we've dubbed the "Captain Kirk chair." Greg has also been driving the Chevrolet Tahoe Premier. They also chat about two of Riswick's recent features: the 20 craziest car redesigns of the past 20 years and the best cars for snow. Autoblog Podcast #716 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown Cars we're driving Aston Martin DBX 2022 Kia Carnival 2022 Chevy Tahoe Features 20 craziest car redesigns of the last 20 years Best cars for snow Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

2018 Jaguar XF Sportbrake Quick Spin Review | Special XF no more
Mon, Jun 4 2018The 2018 Jaguar XF Sportbrake is a wagon, and as such, one must praise its existence. We need more of them. It looks sensational in all its long-roofed glory, especially in Firenze Red and the gloss black exterior trim package — yowza. Plus, its cargo area is deep, wide and generally voluminous. It would be nice if Jaguar included a roll-up net partition for dogs or to prevent high-mounted cargo from flying forward (as Audi does in the Allroad), but nevertheless, the XF Sportbrake should be more functional than many crossover SUVs. It should certainly be more enjoyable to drive, as the XF delivers with Jag's usual steering excellence and body control. While other midsize luxury sedans have drifted away from the sporting realm (cough, BMW 5 Series), the XF maintains its engagement with the driver. As we discovered when driven back-to-back with the Volvo V90, it's one of the sportiest of sport wagons. It's definitely the sportiest of Sportbrakes. However, it's the "XF" bit that disappoints. The original XF was really something when it debuted, featuring seductively sleek styling in a segment of serious German sedans. The distinctive cabin put on a show with rotating air vents and a rotary shifter that rose into your hand upon pressing the start button. The fact that the XF was different inside and outside from its fellow Jaguars also differed from the Russian nesting doll design approach of its competitors. The original wasn't without flaws, but it was special. This 2018 XF just isn't. The cabin is the biggest problem, as it looks identical to those of the cheaper XE and F-Pace SUV, and is pretty unremarkable and, well, dull to behold. Even the "show" elements that have survived seem vestigial now, as only the outer air vents rotate and the shifter no longer rises into your hand since the starter has migrated elsewhere. More concerning, though, is that the materials are just not up to the segment standards, and certainly not in keeping with a test car that has a sticker of $84,815. For instance, the old XF could be fitted with soft leather covering the doors and the broad, downward sloping dash. The new one has coarsely grained pleather. Then there's the matter of functionality. The rotary shifter in the original XF was certainly part of the "show" but it also freed up significant space on the center console for three cupholders/bins. The new one resides in an expanse of wood trim the size of a shift boot, leaving no room for that third cupholder/bin.
Jaguar launches new classic racing series
Fri, 14 Nov 2014One-make racing series have become all the rage for customers who want to actually race their exotic sports cars (or competition-spec versions of them, anyway). Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini and Aston Martin all offer such programs, and Porsche supports several. Now Jaguar is getting in on the action as well, but instead of turning one of its production models - we're looking at you, F-Type - into a spec racer, it's launching an historic racing series instead.
The 2015 Jaguar Heritage Challenge will be open to cars made by the Leaping Cat marque before 1966, including the C-Type, D-Type, E-Type and Mk I and MkII sedans. The series, which builds on the success of the previous Jaguar E-Type Challenge, will be administered by the Historic Sports Car Club (HSCC) based at Silverstone and will include four races in the UK and one in Europe, with the exact schedule still to be determined.
The program was announced at the launch of the Jaguar Heritage Driving Experience, where Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations director John Edwards was also named chairman of the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust, replacing former Jaguar managing director Mike O'Driscoll who chaired the organization for the past five years.
