Jaguar XK120 FHC (1954) – nut & bolt restored and engine rebuilt

£150,000 - *€170,000 - *$181,000

Description

The Jaguar XK120 SE Coupe to ‘Nigel Dawes Specification’ Chassis no: S681366, offered here  was first registered to Colonel Hughes from Lowery Air Force Base in Denver Colorado in 1954. The car remained in the USA passing through two further keepers until it was bought by its current owner a Jaguar enthusiast in 1994. He immediately shipped the car to the United Kingdom with the intention of having it restored and upgraded by Nigel Dawes the XK Guru who builds what is considered to be the ultimate ‘Grand Touring’ XK120 Coupe. Unfortunately, Nigel was fully committed to building his run of ten cars and unable to take another commission on. Our client then put the car into store until 2016 when he instructed Carrosserie Company in Barnard Castle, a respected restorer of pre-war Rolls Royce and Bentleys to undertake a complete body off restoration prior to painting in Aston Martin Racing Green. The engine build was entrusted to Guy Broad with the brief to build to ‘fast road specification’ which included C-Type heads. All parts for the restoration were procured from Guy Broad including; 5 speed gearbox, uprated torsion and anti-tramp bars, disc brake conversion, all new poly bush conversion, 2-inch SU carburettors, new tilting bucket seats, 123 electronic ignition, alternator, alloy radiator and fan, high torque starter. Attention then passed to the interior trim which is Fern Green leather with book matched veneer dashboard and door capping.

The car was completed in 2019 and put into storage with the intention of the car returning to the US. The owner tested the car several times whilst in the UK and was never really happy with its mid-range performance and finally reached out to Ian Nuttall at IN Racing who rebuilt the engine to his specification and completed its final performance testing.

The car comes complete with a Jaguar Heritage Certificate and a large file including various invoices and other related materials.

RHD Lagonda Drophead (1952) – very original car

  • Description
    1952 LAGONDA 2.6-LITRE DROPHEAD COUPÉ
    REGISTRATION NO. XMY 138
    CHASSIS NO. LAG/50/450
    Designed by W O Bentley
    Elegant British Gran Turismo
    Re-trimmed interior and new hood circa 2013
    Good history file
    First registered in March 1952, chassis number ‘LAG/50/450’ was acquired by the immediately preceding owner in October 2016 having benefited circa 2013 from a re-trimmed interior and a new maroon hood. We are advised that the paintwork is too good to be original, and it appears that the car has had plenty of work done, although it is not known whether or not it has been fully restored at any time. The car has had a dent in a front wing professionally repaired since its acquisition by the vendor, who has decided that advancing years necessitates a slimming-down of his collection, hence the decision to sell.
    The car is offered with paperwork consisting of a quantity of expired MoTs, numerous bills dating back to 1978, an old-style logbook, and a V5C Registration Certificate. A workshop manual, an original sales brochure, and a box of assorted spares are included in the sale, and the spare wheel is present.
