Car to be at auction 10/17
www.mossgreen.com.au/m/lot-details/index/catalog/354/lot/126584/1951-JAGUAR-XK12 ...

Auction description:
The Motorclassica Auction(#158MG) 14/10/2017 6:00 PM AEDT
Lot 28 of 54: 1951 JAGUAR XK120 3.4-LITRE OTS
Estimate: $130,000 - $150,000
Chassis No: 660827
Engine No: W 3413-7

This open two-seater, Chassis number 660827 is accompanied by the official Jaguar Heritage Certificate which states this car was manufactured on 22 June 1951 as an open two-seater, right hand drive manual. It was despatched on 14th July 1951 and delivered new to Brylaw, Melbourne, Australia. The first owner was not recorded. The car was delivered new in Pastel Green with a Suede Green interior trim and a Sand soft top.

Now presented resplendent in Old English White with blue leather interior trim with a matching navy-blue cloth soft top, this stylish motor car has been thoroughly restored recently to an exacting standard. The paintwork was carried out by Harley Wrigley (one of the team at Re-creation in Lilydale) and the body was restored by Dennis Robertson. Trim was attended to by Peter Buszko using quality materials from Classic and European. The engine has been comprehensively overhauled by Mike Roddy with improvements to boost performance including: set of wide rods; full set larger valves; series 3 camshafts; lightened flywheel; a full balance; polished aluminium components; new clutch plates and thrust bearing and a modern alternator. The car has its original 4-speed manual with overdrive gearbox.

The car is currently fitted with bucket seats which provide an additional 6 inches of leg room in the cockpit. It also comes with the original flat seat backs that are re-trimmed in blue leather and have new specially shaped foam pads. The sale will also be accompanied with the Jaguar Heritage Certificate; a period 16" fitted Motolita steering wheel and the original restored black steering wheel; the original workshop manual; a reproduction handbook; and the correct period Lucas accessory fog lights. A blue cloth tonneau cover accompanies the car. In the boot are a set of fitted luggage in matching blue leather, a complete (compiled) tool kit, correct jack, wheelbrace and footpump.

In August of this year, it had a complete rebuild of the front end and 2 new Michelin X tyres fitted. The car has also been recently serviced (receipts available on request).

This beautifully restored Australian delivered XK120 offers a wonderful opportunity to acquire an iconic British sports car which is ready for the road as a superb driver's car. This vehicle is documented in The Jaguar XK120 in the Southern Hemisphere, by John Elmsgreen and Terry McGrath.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
