1950 Jaguar XK120 Open Two Seater<\/h1>\n

After making a lasting impression in the automotive world, Jaguar was forced to reconsider their XK120 in 1950 for larger scale production. To meet demands, Sir William Lyons had the car tooled for a steel body which would save costs and improve delivery times. Like the aluminum-bodied cars which were very hard to purchase, the production versions had had French curves, 120 mph performance and an easy price tag of \u00a3988.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite being made in steel, the XK120 lost none of its appeal or charm. It still used the same XK engine, which was the world’s first affordable and mass-produced twin-cam unit, and had the sweeping body which was inspired by Italian sports cars and the streamlined styling of the French design houses.<\/p>\n

\"1950<\/a><\/p>\n

In 1950, Jaguar took necessary steps to move towards large-scale production enabling Jaguar to produce over 12 000 examples. In 1951, the range was extended with a Fixed Head Coupe which was followed up by a Drophead Coupe in 1953. The later had luxuriously crafted soft tops with burled wood veneer trim and rollup windows inside. Around 1,800 XK 120 Drophead Coupes were produced.<\/p>\n

Before 1949, Jaguar only played a small role in motor sports, but after the debut of the XK120, everyone was interested to see how the cars would perform on the track. Jaguar was no doubt interested as well and some of the very first cars were prepared for Silverstone where they took both first and second place. The following year, three privately entered XK120s raced LeMans with impressive competitiveness.<\/p>\n

\"1950<\/a><\/p>\n

Success at Lemans encouraged Jaguar to build a specially designed XK120 which would lead the company into its most successful year. The XK120C (or C-Type) endurance racer used a tube frame chassis and streamlined body with the familiar XK120 drive train. This combination was quite successful and claimed Jaguar’s first outright victory at Le Mans.<\/p>\n

After Jaguar had won LeMans, and the XK120 debuted at the New York Auto show, Americans seriously started to consider British roadsters, propelling an entire industry of British sports cars made for export. Throughout the years, Jaguar nurtured this relationship with the updated XK140 and XK150.<\/p>\n

Important Sales & Chassis<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

660449 – In 1951, This XK120 was prepared to support the new C-Type at the 1951 24 Hours of LeMans. While the C-Type won, privateers Bob Lawrie and Ivan Waller drove 660449 to 11th place overall, the XK120’s highest placing at the race. In more recent times, 660449 has been subject to a complete restoration, which included upgrading most of the components to drive the car in vintage events. The restoration debuted at the 2002 LeMans classic. It will be offered for sale at Christies Auction at Retromobile.<\/p>\n

LWK707 – Known for its unique registration plate, this XK120 Coupe ran the ‘7 days and 7 nights’ endurance run at Montlhery with drivers Moss, Fairman, Hadley and Johnson. LWK707 ran for a full 7 days during which the car averaged just over 100mph. It remains in remarkably original condition to this day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>1953 Jaguar XK120 Roadster 673870<\/a> – sold for $93,500<\/b> Currently finished in Olde English White over Burgundy and Biscuit leather, a popular color combination for the XK120, this 1953 Roadster is said to be an excellent driver. According to documentation supplied with it, this XK120 resided in La Canada, California, under the ownership of Joan Marilyn Piddington, who placed the car in static storage in 1968. After being removed from storage in the late 1980s, it was sold from California and purchased by Bud Morrison, of Tempe, Arizona, who restored the car to its former glory in the early 1990s. Mr. Morrison kept the car for nearly 25 years, finally parting with the Jaguar in 2013.\u00a0Auction Source: <\/b>RM Sotheby’s Monterey 2015<\/a><\/p>\n

1952 Jaguar XK120 4.2-litre<\/a> – sold for \u20ac88,920<\/b> \u00a340 had changed hands and Dexter Brown owned a Jaguar XK120 that had sustained front end damage in a meeting with a lamp post. Eoin Young, writing of this car in Autosport magazine in February 1971, recounts how another XK120 with a rusty body yielded a replacement chassis and Brown built up an E-type 4.2 litre specification engine with gas-flowed head, bigger valves, racing crankshaft, high lift cams and a lightened flywheel, bringing the power up from 250bhp to 290bhp and the price for the race-tuned triple-carburettor engine to \u00a3300. Brown worked with Bentley Drivers Club member Harold Pounds to develop the car still further, fitting a close ratio gearbox with overdrive unit from an XK150 as well as 16inch wire wheels and disc brakes. The new car borrowed XK150 suspension. Weight was dramatically reduced by stripping the body to single skin and fitting a lightweight boot lid. Bucket seats replaced the original bench type seating. A detailed list of all Dexter Brown’s modifications is on file. The blue livery with white racing decals harked back to the glorious days of David Murray’s Ecurie Ecosse team of racing C-types.\u00a0Auction Source: <\/b>2010 Collectors’ Motor Cars at Goodwood Revival by Bonhams<\/a><\/p>\n
