This Special Equipment XK120 Drophead Coupe was completed at the Jaguar works in May of 1953 and was delivered new through Hoffman Motor Car Company in New York, New York, to its first owner. It left the factory finished in the classic British Racing Green, and fitted with a tan interior and a black convertible top. The early history remains unknown, but at some point it was stored in Georgia, where it remained until recently.
Currently, the cylinder head number does match but the engine block number does not match the factory records, and therefore appears to have been replaced at some point.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2014
