It's all about the sweeping curve that starts at the front fender, nd flows all the way to the rear bumper in a wave pattern. It looks like a racer's scarf flowing at 100 mph. That's why it's essential to find an XK as exemplary as this one. The flow of all of the steel components must meet perfectly to make one cohesive masterpiece.

This includes delicate two-piece front and rear bumpers, hich were exclusive to the XK-120.One peek inside, nd you'll be instantly transported back to Browns Lane in 1954. That's because the restoration paid special attention to bringing back the old-world atmosphere of real wood and leather. It starts with the $4K invested in replacing the burled walnut dash, nd full trim. The leather on the bucket seats doesn't show a single crease because they've been recently recovered in the correct pattern. When you slip into the driver's seat, ou're instantly reminded that the XK-120 had the attractive three-spoke wood wheel that didn't make it onto successors. The full set of Smiths gauges are a nice reminder of this car's speed record pedigree.

The 3.5-liter inline six cylinder looks perfect in the slim engine bay, nd this is the original drivetrain as certified with the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust certificate.

This is also known as the Special Equipment (SE) designation, hich raised the output from 160 hp, o 180 hp.
